Acrylics
Methyl Methacrylate Adhesives are structural adhesives that have exceptional
toughness, and the ability to bond most plastics, composites, metals, and
masonry with strengths approaching 4,000 psi, high resistance to weathering
and solvents and rapid room temperature cures means these products are suitable
for a very wide range of production or repair applications. Faster and slower
curing products along with different viscosity's and colors make up a complete
line of very high performance adhesives.
Anaerobics
Also known, as "thread lockers" One-part adhesive/sealant that cures only in
the absence of air. Designed for locking screws, nuts, bolts and/or retaining
bearings & shafts. They are resistant to shock and vibration, and are available
in low, medium and high strength formulations to best suit your requirements.
Cyanoacrylates
Cyanoacrylate Adhesives, more commonly known as "Super Glue", offer very rapid
set times with good durability on a wide range of materials. They are very
effective on smaller parts made from rubber, most plastics, wood, and metals.
They are usually used as one-part adhesives but accelerators are available to
enhance their performance in difficult applications. Cyanoacrylates are available
in a variety of viscosities, cure speeds, gap-filling capability and surface
compatibility
Epoxy
Available in two-part or one-part, both room temperature and heat curable
formulations, epoxy adhesives provide high strength bonds on a wide variety
of substrates. The bond can often times be stronger than the parts being bonded.
Epoxies are very tough with good chemical and environmental resistance. They are
also available with electrically and thermally conductive properties.
Hot Melt Adhesives
Hot Melt adhesives are thermoplastic adhesives that are applied HOT to the materials
being joined and produce strong bonds as they rapidly cool. Great for some plastics,
glass, metal, wood, paper, and cardboard. Generally not considered a "structural"
bond, often their performance combined with speed is just right for production or
repair
UV Curing
Ultraviolet (UV) and visible light curing adhesives are used for bonding, coating,
encapsulating, tacking and sealing. These single component, solvent free products
cure in seconds when exposed to industrial UV/visible light sources. Some of these
adhesives will cure with the light source, an activator or both.
