The invention relates to a two-component structural adhesive, i.e. to a two-component system of a first component and a second component spatially separated from one another, wherein the reaction of the first component and the second component after mixing results in a structural adhesive. The first component comprises at least four of a (meth)acrylic acid, a C.sub.1-6-alkyl (meth)acrylate, a cycloalkyl (meth)acrylate, a hydroxy-C.sub.1-6-alkyl (meth)acrylate, and/or a glycolether (meth)acrylate. The second component comprises a peroxide polymerization initiator. Additionally, the first component and/or the second component comprises at least two toughening agents (a first toughening agent and a second toughening agent); the second toughening agent differing from the first toughening agent; a first impact modifier; and optionally a second impact modifier differing from the first impact modifier.
