3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Epoxy Adhesive EC-3542 B/A FR is a two-component, flame-retardant epoxy adhesive that cures at room temperature to form impact-resistant structural bonds. It offers a lightweight, fast-curing adhesive for general potting, edge fill and honeycomb panel forming to meet unique manufacturing requirements.

3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Epoxy Adhesive EC-3542 B/A FR is a unique adhesive formulation with low density, high torque strength and fast cure time. Using 3M™ Glass Bubble technology, this product is half the weight of traditional structural bonding adhesives for an excellent strength-to-weight ratio. The result is a product that can help substantially reduce weight in aircraft interior structures with a density of <0.7g/cc. Consistent flow enables fast pumping and application through pneumatic dispensers and automated mixing and dispensing equipment. After application and cure, 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Epoxy Adhesive EC-3542 B/A FR forms tough, impact-resistant structural bonds. It also offers high torque resistance with high compressive strength, making it ideal for insert potting application.
