3M 7010367229 Thermal Bonding Film AF42 3in X 72yd 13.3 Mil

Product Description

The 3M 7010367229 is an unsupported thermosetting film adhesive engineered for structural bonding of metals and glass. Supplied in a 3-inch-wide by 72-yard roll at 13.3 mil thickness, it delivers high shear, peel, and cleavage strength across a wide service temperature range. The film cures in as little as 30 seconds at 450 degrees F, producing a tough, flexible bond. It features high clarity when in contact with a solid surface, making it well suited for glass applications where appearance matters. Low tack and low flow characteristics allow for controlled handling and placement prior to cure.

This thermal bonding film is used in manufacturing, fabrication, and maintenance applications where a reliable structural adhesive bond between metal substrates or glass panels is required. Its relatively low required bonding pressure makes it compatible with applications where high clamping force is not practical. The lightweight, unsupported film format is easy to cut and position, suiting both production-line and field repair scenarios. It is typically applied by fabricators, glaziers, and industrial maintenance technicians working with metal assemblies or glass structures.

Key Features

• Unsupported thermosetting film adhesive designed for structural metal and glass bonding
• Fast cure: bonds in as little as 30 seconds at 450 degrees F
• High shear, peel, and cleavage strength over a wide temperature range
• High film clarity when in contact with a solid surface
• Low tack and low flow for controlled placement before cure
• Lightweight construction with high uncured film strength for easy handling

Compatibility

Designed for structural bonding applications involving metal and glass substrates where a thermosetting film adhesive with high strength and fast cure capability is required.

Installation Notes

Application should be performed by qualified fabricators or technicians familiar with thermosetting adhesive film systems. Ensure all bonding surfaces are clean, dry, and free of contaminants before applying the film. Apply sufficient heat and pressure per the bonding process requirements to achieve full cure. Follow applicable workplace safety guidelines when working at elevated cure temperatures.
