3M™ Scotch-Weld® EPX® DP105 – Fast-setting, flexible clear epoxy for bonding dissimilar surfaces with thermal expansion differences

• Item Name: 3M™ Scotch-Weld® EPX® DP105
• Manufacturer: 3M
• Technologies: Two-component, fast-curing, flexible epoxy adhesive
• Color: Clear
• Cure Type: Ambient temperature, 4–5 minutes work life, full strength in 48 hours
• Package Size: Contact to Techniq VN for details
• Shelf Life: 12 months

1. Product Overview

3M™ Scotch-Weld™ EPX™ DP105 is a two-part, fast-setting, flexible, clear epoxy adhesive/sealant. It features a 4-minute work life, cures to a clear appearance even in large masses, and provides high peel strength with excellent flexibility, making it ideal for bonding dissimilar substrates with different thermal expansion rates. It uses a 1:1 mix ratio for convenient dispensing and application.


2. Applications

  • Bonding of dissimilar materials (metals, plastics, glass, wood, composites)

  • Applications where flexibility and thermal expansion mismatch resistance are required

  • Transparent bonding applications where clarity retention is essential

  • General industrial assembly, repair, and sealing
