3M Scotch-Weld Acrylic Adhesive 8310NS is a general-purpose acrylic adhesive that delivers a strong structural bond without sacrificing visual appeal. Its 10:1 mix ratio dispenses as a transparent blue, high-viscosity adhesive that stays in place during application, improving control to help reduce dripping. Once cured, the result is a clean, clear bond line well suited for assemblies where both performance and aesthetics matter.
- CLEAR BOND: Cures clear on visible bond lines to deliver a strong structural bond with a clean, finished look
- RELIABLE STRENGTH: Provides excellent impact resistance, strong adhesion, and overlap shear strength on metals and plastics
- LASTING FORMULA: Built-in UV stabilizers provide resistance to UV exposure to help keep cured bond line clear
- DESIGN FLEXIBILITY: Bonds a variety of substrates to support design freedom across mixed-material assemblies
- APPLICATION CONTROL: Stays in place with a non-sag formula to help reduce drips
- PRODUCT OPTIONS: Available in bulk and Duo-Pak cartridges to fit a range of production needs

PRODUCT FAQ
-
What is the 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Acrylic Adhesive DP8310NS best used for?
The DP8310NS is a two-part acrylic adhesive that works great for bonding a wide variety of materials including metals, composites, plastics, and rubbers. It's perfect for applications that need both strength and flexibility in the final bond.
-
How long does it take for this adhesive to cure?
The DP8310NS typically reaches handling strength in about 15-30 minutes at room temperature, though full cure usually takes around 24 hours depending on the substrate and environmental conditions.
-
Does the DP8310NS come ready to use?
Yes! It comes in a convenient 45 mL Duo-Pak format with the two components already in the right proportion, so you can dispense and mix it right away without any measuring or guesswork.
-
What does "clear" mean in the product name?
The DP8310NS cures to a clear finish, which means it won't show visible adhesive lines in your bonded joints—this is especially valuable for applications where appearance matters.
-
How many applications can I get from one case?
Each case contains 12 Duo-Paks of 45 mL each, giving you plenty of adhesive for multiple projects. The exact number of applications depends on how much adhesive each joint requires.
Specifically formulated to meet the rigorous demands of mixed-material assembly operations, the 3M Scotch-Weld Acrylic Adhesive 8310NS is engineered to create reliable and durable bonds between plastics and metal substrates. This advanced adhesive delivers exceptional impact resistance and robust overlap shear strength, enabling manufacturers to optimize their design strategies across diverse material combinations and applications.
The product's 10-minute open time window provides adequate working time for precise part positioning and repositioning, ensuring accurate assembly before the bonding process initiates. Upon application, the adhesive achieves functional handling strength in approximately 25 minutes, facilitating efficient production workflows. Integrated UV stabilizers work to protect the cured bond line from ultraviolet degradation, helping maintain the adhesive's optical clarity over extended periods of exposure to sunlight and UV radiation.
Manufacturing efficiency is further enhanced through minimal surface preparation requirements, which can significantly reduce production time and associated labor costs. The versatility of this adhesive extends across numerous industries and applications, making it particularly valuable for projects where both structural performance and aesthetic considerations are critical.
