Structural Acrylic Adhesives and Epoxies for Metal Bonding, Magnet Bonding, and Motor Assembly |
|
Activator-curing structural acrylic adhesives brought about the technology revolution known as cold bonding. This adhesive technology shortens the assembly times associated with motor, magnet, and metal bonding. Structural adhesives cure upon exposure to UV/Visible light, heat (for shadowed areas), or activator (for opaque surfaces). The adhesives bond glass, metal, plastic, ceramic, magnets, ferrite, as well as dissimilar substrates. Fast cure time saves space, labor, and regulatory compliance costs making product assembly easier and more efficient for manufacturers.
Features of Dymax 600 and 800 series metal bonding adhesives and epoxies:
- Fixture in seconds
- Acid-free
- Non-corrosive and non-flammable
- Suitable for harsh environments
- Develop strength to 500 psi in seconds, with ultimate bond strengths to 3,500 psi, between opaque surfaces with activator
Structural adhesives are ideal for choke and transformer bonding, DC motor assembly, alternator and flywheel applications, tacking, unitizing, ruggedizing, sealing, shallow potting, magnet bonding, and metal bonding.
