Adhesives

Adhesives can be attractive alternatives to traditional fasteners that handle high temperatures and corrosion.

Leakproof glued joints in plastic assemblies are a cinch if the surfaces are clean.

Pressure-sensitive adhesives minimize vibration, noise, and corrosion, making them a viable and cost-effective alternative to mechanical fasteners.

Four new high-adhesion acrylic-foam tapes resist temperatures to 400°F. The XHA 6600 Series offers high adhesion combined with good shear and stress relaxation; a thick adhesive for demanding, gap-filling applications; and chemical, UV, and humidity resistance.

EP30BN two-part, boron-nitride epoxy adhesive helps with thermal management.

Clear adhesive cures in air or under UV light.

Nanosilica additions lend strength and abrasion resistance to a UV-curing adhesive.

The U6000 and U6200 tapes are high-density, open-cell urethane foams.

Tooling Research Inc. (TRI) primarily designs and builds custom electrical, mechanical, and pneumatic equipment and controls as well as machining metal and plastic components.

The tape has earned Mining Safety and Health Administration approval number P-07-KA080005- MSHA. The product’s durability and moisture resistance make it suitable for repairing and splicing mining cable on-site.

The company’s BlueWave LED system emits a narrow-band of visible light centered on 410-nm wavelength. Top output of 2,500 mW/cm2 in an 8-mm diameter spot lets Blue- Wave cure the MD 1000 adhesives quickly and at cooler temperatures.

Loctite 5510 bonds and seals a variety of materials.   The adhesive comes in a onecomponent form in black, white, or gray

EP41SMED adhesive mixes in a 5:1 ratio by weight and cures within 24 hr at room temperature. The epoxy bonds to most materials and can join dissimilar substrates.

Scapa 815 is a flash-breaker tape designed to mask and hold tools, forms, and parts for metal or composite bonding.

The Tru-Bond 18400 Series of light-cured pressuresensitive adhesives hold metals, glass, ceramics, and plastics, including difficult-to-bond materials such as polyethylene and polypropylene panels.
