3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Structural Plastic Adhesive DP8010 Blue is a two-part acrylic adhesive specially formulated to bond many low surface energy plastics, including many grades of polypropylene, polyethylene, and thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) without special surface preparation.
When using a Duo-Pak (DP) size adhesive, rely on 3M dispensing equipment for convenient and accurate metering, mixing and dispensing. Creates a Strong Bond on Low Surface Energy Plastics Structural bonds can be achieved without special surface treatments such as chemical etching, plasma, flame, or corona treatment or priming. Simply wipe the surfaces with isopropanol to remove mold release agents, dust dirt, etc. 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ Structural Plastic Adhesive DP8010 Blue also bonds metals, ceramics, and wood and most other plastics. It is slightly flexible when cured. We also formulate this adhesive with 8 mil spacer beads for bond line spacing. Recommended Applications Joining plastics to metals, such as in the manufacture or repair of appliances Bonding low surface energy plastics without priming Impact resistance composite bonding Manufacture or repair of various sporting goods equipment Low surface energy plastics such as polypropylene, polyethylene and thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) Our 3M™ Scotch-Weld ™ Acrylic Adhesive DP8010 starts with medium viscosity for controlled dispensing and spreads to sufficiently wet out the surface. The mix ratio is 10:1 and provides a 10 minute work life. The adhesive reaches handling strength in approximately 1 hour and is fully cured in 8-24 hours (at 72° F /22° C). Easy Adhesion with Acrylic Acrylic adhesives are two-part adhesives that provide excellent bond strength and durability. Often referred to as epoxy adhesives or epoxy glue, acrylics actually belong to a separate chemical family with their own unique characteristics. This very unique adhesive bonds LSE plastics without priming or other surface treatments.

3M Scotch-Weld DP8010 Blue is a two-part acrylic adhesive specifically engineered to bond low-surface-energy (LSE) plastics like polypropylene, polyethylene, and thermoplastic olefins (TPOs) without requiring primers or special surface treatments. It offers a longer work life compared to similar adhesives, allowing more time for positioning and assembly of larger parts. DP8010 creates strong, durable bonds with excellent water and humidity resistance.
Popular Applications & Uses
- Assembling large plastic parts that require repositioning.
- Bonding plastic panels, trim, and housings in industrial equipment.
- Manufacturing sporting goods made from polyolefin plastics.
- Attaching LSE plastic components in specialty vehicles or signage.
- Replacing mechanical fasteners for a smoother, cleaner finish on plastic assemblies.
Industries that Commonly Use It
- General Industrial and Manufacturing
- Sporting Goods and Recreation
- Specialty Vehicle and Transportation
- Signage and Commercial Displays
- Appliance and Consumer Goods
Special and Unique Features
- Bonds difficult low-surface-energy plastics without primers or corona/flame treatment.
- Offers a 10-minute work life, providing approximately three times more open time than 3M DP8005.
- Reaches handling strength in approximately 2 hours at room temperature.
- Excellent resistance to water, humidity, and many chemicals.
- The blue color provides a visible indicator of the mixed adhesive.
Key Properties
- Base: Methacrylate Acrylic
- Color: Blue
- Mix Ratio: 10:1 by volume
- Work Life: 8-10 minutes at 73 F (23 C)
- Time to Handling Strength: 1.75 - 2 hours at 73 F (23 C)
- Overlap Shear Strength (on PP): 750 psi
Materials Bonded
- Primary: Polypropylene (PP), Polyethylene (PE - including HDPE, LDPE), and Thermoplastic Olefins (TPOs).
- Secondary: Can also bond the LSE plastics listed above to other materials like ABS, PVC, PMMA, Fiber-Reinforced Plastics (FRP), and metals.
- Note: As confirmed, this product is not recommended for structural bonding of nylon.
Cure Information
- Mix Ratio: 10:1 by volume
- Work Life (Open Time): 8-10 minutes
- Time to Handling Strength: Approximately 2 hours at room temperature.
- Full Cure: 24 hours at room temperature.
- Cure can be accelerated with the application of mild heat after parts are properly fixtured.
Known backups / known substitutes for this product
- 3M Scotch-Weld DP8005 Structural Plastic Adhesive
- Maven MMA8005
Comparison Note
- The primary difference between 3M DP8010 and its backups, 3M DP8005 and Maven MMA8005, is the work life. DP8010 provides a longer work life of about 8-10 minutes, making it ideal for larger parts or more complex assemblies. DP8005 and MMA8005 have a much shorter work life of only 2-3 minutes, making them better suited for smaller components and faster assembly processes.
