UV Curable Adhesives for Decorative and
Industrial Glass Assembly

UV curable glass assembly adhesives cure upon exposure to ultraviolet light.  Additionally, Multi-Cure^® grades cure with UV light, activator or heat even through UV blocked and tinted glass.  These worker friendly UV curing resins form high strength, crystal clear, environmentally resistant bonds to glass as well as a variety of plastic and metal substrates. They adhere to soft glass, borosilicate glass, lead crystal, steel, plated metals and thermoset plastics. They are excellent adhesives for bonding stemware, glass headlamps, art glass, crystal figurines, trophies, architectural glass, novelties, metal brackets to glass and lens laminating.

Adhesive	Applications	Features
401	Crystal assembly; glass furniture bonding; adhering metal brackets to glass	Excellent adhesion to glass and metal; low viscosity; very good moisture resistance; good for close fitting parts
424A	Glass bonding; lead crystal chandelier and figurine assembly	Crystal clear bonds; excellent adhesion to crystal; moderate flowing viscosity
425	Glass stemware bonding; fountain assembly	Dishwasher safe; water clear; low viscosity; exceptional tensile strength; good vibration and impact resistance
429	Bulletproof glass bonding; glass, plastic and metal bonding; glass laminating; glass trophy assembly	Resists yellowing, vibration and thermal shock; optically clear; general purpose bonding, potting and sealing; for large area bonding
488	Sealing glass	Extremely flexible; high degree of moisture resistance; good glass adhesion to difficult to bond to plastics
4-20418	Bonding glass to acrylic; mirror assembly	Cures through UV blocked and tinted glass and plastics; resists yellowing in the sun; good performance during thermal cycling; low stress
4-20586	Epoxy for bonding glass to metal and plastic	Hard, clear bonds; slick surface; resists yellowing when heated; good cure depth
4-20623	Gap filling of non-flat, irregular and handmade glass; laminating large, thin glass sheets	High transmission across the optical spectrum; low stress laminating; Newtonian viscosity minimizes air bubbles in the bond line
Multi-Cure® 602 Rev A	Bonding metal, steel and aluminum to glass	Cures with heat, light or pre-applied activator; tough, resilient bonds; can be used for coil terminating, unitizing and tamperproofing adjustment screws
Multi-Cure® 605 Series	High peel/cleavage strength for glass and metal bonding	Clear, hard bonds;  cure with UV light or activator; bonds to glass, metal, phenolic, filled Nylon, ferrite and ceramic
Multi-Cure® 620	Bonding glass to aluminum, steel, plated metal and thermoset plastics; potting	Good impact and moisture resistance; clear bonds; cures with heat, light or activator; wide range of viscosities; general purpose
Multi-Cure® 621	Glass/metal bonding to phenolic and filled plastics	High tensile strength; suited for rigid adhesive applications; clear, hard bonds; cures with UV light, heat or pre-applied activator
Multi-Cure® 625 SV01 Rev A	Glass, metal, plastic bonding; adhering plastic lenses to eyeglass frames; bonding leads to glass headlamps and latches to windows	Flexible and resilient; bonds can withstand strains caused by different coefficients of expansion that can be present when bonding dissimilar substrates; cures with UV light, heat or pre-applied activator
6-20353	Glass cationic epoxy and encapsulant	Clear, rigid bonds; low shrinkage; cures upon exposure to low intensity UV light; good for bonding and coating applications where resilience and toughness are required to resist mechanical and environmental shock
