PRODUCT FAQ
-
What is 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Instant Adhesive CA4 used for?
3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Instant Adhesive CA4 is a fast-drying, clear adhesive that bonds quickly to a variety of substrates like plastics, rubbers, and metals. It's commonly used in industrial settings for bonding materials together easily.
-
How easy is it to apply the adhesive?
The application process of this instant adhesive is straightforward and user-friendly. Simply squeeze a small amount onto one surface (the less porous one) and press the two surfaces together firmly.
-
Is this adhesive safe to use on food contact surfaces?
Unfortunately not - none of our instant adhesives are approved for direct or indirect food contact applications. If you have specific concerns regarding any potential hazardous situations surrounding your usage please reach out to us directly or check with relevant government agencies as necessary
3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Instant Adhesive CA4 is a glue that is easily applied with a thin bond line from a squeeze bottle and cures quickly. This cyanoacrylate adhesive is dispensed from a flexible container; pinch a precise drop or squeeze for a steady bead.
Recommended Applications- Gasket attachment
- Small Joint assembly
- Jewelry assembly
- Orthopedics and footwear
Once applied, 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Instant Adhesive CA4 typically reaches handling strength in under 40 seconds, with a full cure achieved in 24 hours. This keeps jobs moving quickly and may help improve workplace productivity. Once a full cure is achieved, the glue achieves a strong, durable and lasting bond, with overlap shear strength over 2,000 psi.
Understanding Instant AdhesivesInstant adhesives are cyanoacrylate based formulas that are strong, fast-acting glues used in industrial and household applications. In general, they are an acrylic resin that rapidly polymerizes in the presence of moisture, forming long, strong chains, joining the bonded surfaces together.
Cyanoacrylate adhesives should be applied thinly, with pressure put on the bond for a few seconds, to ensure that the reaction proceeds rapidly and a strong bond is formed within a reasonable time.
3M instant adhesives apply right from the container and rapidly reach handling strength at room temperature. Commonly referred to as a super glue, a single drop per square inch can bond many plastics, rubbers, metals, wood and more. An instant adhesive from 3M set a Guinness World Record in 2012 for the strongest glue by lifting an 8.1 metric ton forklift in the air for one hour.
