Types of 3M Adhesives
It is very important to choose a proper adhesive for different applications. The adhesive used should make the bond permanent, should be able to resist heat as well as moisture. Following are the different types of 3M Adhesives:
100 HIGH TEMPERATURE ARCYLIC
This 3M adhesive is one of their best. It is has an excellent resistance from solvent and heat. It has a heat resistance of up to 450 F. It has a very high strength for peeling as compared to other adhesives.
100MP HIGH PERFORMANCE ARCYLIC
This 3M adhesive has a 500 F heat resistance, which is short term, and like the above, has excellent resistance from solvents. It has comparatively higher strength for peeling as compared to 100 high temperature acrylic.
100HT ULTRA HIGH TEMPERATURE ARCYLIC
This 3M adhesive has a 550 F heat resistance, which is short term and like the above adhesives, has an excellent resistance from solvents. It also has comparatively higher strength for peeling as compared to such other formulations.
200MP HIGH PERFORMANCE ARCYLIC
This 3M adhesive has a 400 F heat resistance, which is short term and has an outstanding resistance from the solvent. It also gives a short time for proper placement and can be relocated. This 3M 200 MP high performance acrylic also allows lifting of the edges. Its resistance level is so high it protects the product on which it is applied from slipping hundred percent.
220 INDUSTRIAL ARCYLIC
This 3M adhesive has a heat resistance up to 350 F, which is short term and has an outstanding chemical resistance. This adhesive is majorly used for bonding and gripping metals and plastics.
290 LOW OUTGRASSING ARCYLIC
This 3M adhesive has a heat resistance up to 450 F, which is short term. This adhesive is known for bonding things for a long period of time span.
300 HIGH STRENGTH ARCYLIC
This 3M adhesive has a heat resistance up to 250 F, which is short term. It sticks and bonds foams, plastics and papers.
300FR FLAME RETARDANT
This 3M adhesive has outstanding flame retardant criterions. It provides excellent sticking and adhesiveness to plastics, paints which are powder coated and metals which may me slightly oiled up. This type of adhesive is majorly used for foams and plastics.
300 LSE LOW SURFACE ENERGY ARCYLIC
This 3M adhesive has a 300 F heat resistance, which is short term and has an excellent bond and grip to plastics, paints which are powder coated and metals which may be slightly oiled up. This 300 LSE low surface energy acrylic also has an excellent resistance to substances and moisture.
300 MP HIGH TACK ARCYLIC
This 3M adhesive has up to 250 F heat resistance, which is short term and is majorly used for bonding and griping interiors of automobiles. This is one of the most economical adhesive which is majorly used for plastics and foams.
300 SF SOLVENTLESS
This 3M adhesive is perfect to use as the first layer of glue. It is majorly used on papers.
These are some of the best adhesives offered by 3M. So if you are looking for high quality adhesives then there isn’t a better option than 3MTM.
