Highlights
  • Two-part epoxy adhesive suitable for room-temperature curing
  • High mechanical and impact strength after room-temperature cure
  • Low density
  • Fast curing (2 hours time to handling strength for increased customer productivity)
  • Suitable for automated dispensing due to anti-sag properties/controlled flow behaviour for easy application
  • Maintains mechanical performance at high temperature

3M™ Structural Adhesive SA9860 is a two-part, room-temperature-curing, low-density automotive structural adhesive designed to provide an impact-resistant and fast-curing bond without the use of ovens. This solution allows the use of materials such as composites, which are typically sensitive to higher temperatures, to enable lightweighting of the structure and help increase design flexibility.
