Product Description
3M Scotch-Weld Instant Adhesive CA5 is a single-component ethyl cyanoacrylate adhesive that cures at room temperature for industrial bonding of many rubbers, plastics, and metals. Its typical 2,000 cP viscosity is useful for limited gap filling on rough or uneven surfaces, and its slower setting rate allows more time for part alignment. Typical time to handling strength is 12 to 60 seconds. The adhesive meets CID A-A-3097 Type II Class 3. Shelf life is 15 months from manufacture when refrigerated at 0 to 4 deg C in original packaging; it should reach room temperature before opening.
Key features
- 2,000 cP uncured viscosity: The typical liquid viscosity supports limited gap filling on rough or uneven bonding surfaces.
- 12 to 60-second handling time: This typical interval describes handling strength during room-temperature bonding, not completion of cure.
- CID A-A-3097 Type II Class 3: The ethyl cyanoacrylate grade meets this material specification.
Applications
Gap filling; industrial bonding; rubber, foam, and glass bonding; instant bonding.
