3M Structural Adhesive Tape SAT1010M-400, White, 0.4 mm, 510 mm wide, Jumbo Roll

Isolate and Bond Dissimilar Materials
Offering a cleaner application than liquid adhesives, 3M™ Structural Adhesive Tape SAT1010 is a single layer epoxy based adhesive tape for the Automotive industry (BIW), formulated for metal bonding applications. This tape is designed to provide structural bonding strength for various applications, specifically for bonding and isolation of dissimilar materials. In addition to bonding performance, the tape features gap filling properties due to its expansion features.

Application Method
The tape is typically applied during the body in white process. It is run through the automotive paint pre treatment process and then the e coat process. The tape expands and cures in the e coat cure oven to fill and seal small gaps. The tape forms a continuous barrier between similar and dissimilar materials, which minimizes electrical conductivity and helps prevent galvanic interactions.

Benefits of Using a Structural Adhesive Tape Solution
3M™ Structural Adhesive Tape SAT1010 is a disruptive technology providing a wide range of cure or processing profiles. It may reduce manufacturing costs associated with material prep and cleaning, helps simplify current manufacturing process and fits into existing OEM processes. Because it offers repeatable process opportunities, it has the potential for automated tape application, which can improve quality by reducing variability. The tape can adhere to multiple materials and helps enable lightweighting. The tape is available in customer specific die cuts to fit application needs. Our ready to apply product has a consistent thickness to reduce variability, which may help offer a reduction in rework.
