Product Introduction
3M™ Structural Adhesive SA9860 is a two-part, low-density epoxy designed for room-temperature curing in automotive structural bonding. This innovative adhesive eliminates the need for curing ovens, enabling the use of heat-sensitive materials like composites to achieve significant vehicle lightweighting. It delivers high impact resistance and builds handling strength in just 2 hours, boosting productivity. The adhesive forms a robust, durable bond on materials like e-coated and passivated aluminum, maintaining excellent mechanical performance across a wide temperature range, making it ideal for bonding chassis components and EV battery structures.
3M™ SA9860 Features
- Room-Temperature Cure: Cures without ovens, saving energy and allowing for the bonding of heat-sensitive composites.
- Fast Curing: Reaches handling strength in approximately 2 hours, increasing manufacturing productivity.
- High Impact Strength: Provides a durable, impact-resistant bond even when cured at ambient temperatures.
- Low Density: Contributes to vehicle lightweighting efforts by reducing overall component weight.
- Controlled Application: Features anti-sag properties and controlled flow for easy, clean automated dispensing.
- Durable Performance: Maintains high mechanical strength and durability under high loads and varying temperatures.
3M™ SA9860 Applications
- Automotive Body in White structural bonding.
- Chassis and frame assembly applications.
- Bonding EV battery boxes and composite housings.
- Creating impact-resistant and fatigue-resistant joints.
- Gap-filling between structural components.
