PRODUCT FAQ
-
What is the shelf life of 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Epoxy Adhesive 1751?
The stated shelf life for this adhesive is two years from date of manufacture.
-
Can I use this epoxy adhesive to bond metals and plastics together?
Yes, you can. This product is ideal for bonding metal, glass, and plastic surfaces together where high strength and temperature resistance are needed.
-
How fast does the adhesive cure?
At room temperature (72°F or 22°C), the epoxy will start curing in approximately 60 minutes and reach handling strength in four hours.
-
Is it safe to handle this adhesive without any protective equipment?
It's always recommended that you use appropriate gloves while handling adhesives as a safety precaution. However, there aren't any harmful chemicals present in Scotch-Weld™ Epoxy Adhesive 1751 that require additional protection equipment.
-
:What should I do if my hands get stuck with the uncured glue?
:You can remove uncured glue from your skin by washing thoroughly with soap and water before it hardens. If hardened glue remains on your skin after being washed with soap and water(assuming safe zone i.e not near eyes , mouth etc) , gently rub petroleum jelly over affected area.Remove excess cured epoxy before applying petroleum jelly.Wipe off softened residue with a dry cloth then wash again.

This 3M epoxy adhesive has a 3:2 mix ratio by volume and cures at room temperature, reaching its handling strength in approximately 10 hours. Scotch-Weld™ Epoxy Adhesive 1751 offers a 45-minute work-life. The extended work-life allows for proper application, positioning and adjustment in order to reach optimum final results for aesthetic results when troweling and spackling.
Understanding Epoxy AdhesivesEpoxy adhesives are part of the class of adhesives called "structural adhesives," which include polyurethane, acrylic, cyanoacrylate and others. Epoxies are formulated as liquid reactive polymers that undergo a chemical reaction when mixed and then cure to form a solid plastic material. Once the two parts are mixed in their specified ratio, they begin the curing process and offer a limited working time where the adhesive can be applied and the two surfaces positioned as needed. This work life lasts anywhere from a few minutes to several hours. These structural adhesives provide high shear and peel strengths, depending on the formula, and better heat and chemical resistance than other common adhesives. In general, epoxy adhesives have the highest overall strength and offer the best performance and most resistance to high temperatures, solvents and outdoor weathering.
Epoxy adhesive (often referred to as epoxy glue) is widely used in building and home construction; aircraft and automobile manufacturing; bicycle, boat, golf clubs, ski and snowboard assembly as well as a host of home use and other applications. It is used virtually anywhere high-strength bonds are needed along with resistance to environmental conditions. These adhesives are popular for their ease of use, mechanical strength and chemical resistance. Formulations can be created to make epoxy for plastic flexible or epoxy for metal rigid, epoxy resin transparent or opaque, quick setting or slow setting. The versatility with which these adhesives can be formulated helps meet almost any requirement for bonding wood, metal, glass, stone and various plastics.
