    Acrylic Structural Adhesives for Hard-to-Bond Materials

    Image of Product. Cartridge. Front orientation. Cartridge.

    Cartridge

    Join polyethylene, polypropylene, and other plastics standard acrylics can't join.
    Acrylics bond with the widest range of materials of any adhesive. They adhere to plastic especially well, requiring little surface preparation.
    These adhesives come in two parts that need to be mixed. The container size listed is the combined total of the two parts.
    Cartridge—To mix and dispense these adhesives, you'll need a mixer nozzle and dispensing gun.
    Thick Liquid—Flow into narrower gaps than gels and pastes, but thick enough to stay put on uneven surfaces.

    Cartridge

    Mixed with rubber for resilient bonds that withstand sudden stress, shock, and vibration better than standard acrylics. Acrylics bond with the widest range of materials of any adhesive. They adhere to plastic especially well, requiring little surface preparation.

    Paste—Thicker than liquid adhesives but still spreadable—good for filling gaps and covering surfaces.
    Thick Liquid—Flow into narrower gaps than gels and pastes, but thick enough to stay put on uneven surfaces.

    With excellent shear strength, these form stronger bonds than our standard acrylic structural adhesives.
    Acrylics bond with a wider range of materials than any other adhesive. They adhere to plastic especially well, requiring little surface preparation.
    These adhesives come in two parts that need to be mixed. The container size listed is the combined total of the two parts.

    Self-Spacing Acrylic Structural Adhesives

    Image of Product. Cartridge. Front orientation. Cartridge.

    Cartridge

    Filled with uniform glass beads, these acrylics stop surfaces from pressing too close together as you join them. The even spacing prevents adhesives from squeezing out during bonding and ensures a consistent thickness when they harden.
    Acrylics bond with the widest range of materials of any adhesive. They adhere to plastic especially well, requiring little surface preparation.
    These adhesives come in two parts that need to be mixed. The container size listed is the combined total of the two parts.

    Threadlockers

    Bottle

    Single-Use

    Capsule

    The most commonly used threadlockers, these liquids prevent loosening due to vibration, bending, or improper torque. You only need a few drops to evenly coat threads. As you twist parts together, exposure to air is blocked and the threadlocker begins to harden.
    Primer (sold separately) cleans the surface and decreases the time to reach full strength. It is recommended when working with aluminum, stainless steel, and titanium; black-oxide finishes; and cadmium and zinc coatings.
    Low Locking Strength—Often used in setups that require frequent disassembly, these threadlockers are easily released with the turn of a screwdriver or L-key. They give fasteners additional hold to keep them secure against light shock and vibration.
    Medium Locking Strength—Strong enough for most applications, these threadlockers hold firmly until you break their bond with a combination or ratchet wrench.
    High Locking Strength—Keep fasteners firmly in place in motors, pumps, and other applications subjected to heavy shock and vibration. Breaking the bond of these threadlockers requires a propane torch, heat gun, or induction heater. As a result, they shouldn't be used in setups that you disassemble often.
    Thin Liquid—Seep into tight spaces better than thick liquids, so they're best for fine threads.
