Insulating Adhesives for Electronics

Secure hardware on circuit boards while insulating current.

Cyanoacrylate

Cyanoacrylate adhesives dry more quickly than epoxy adhesives. They’re also known as super glue. Use them to secure coils of wire. To create adhesion, they require an accelerator (included with some adhesives).

Plastic

Plastic adhesives create an instant bond, so they’re the best choice for automated assembly lines. The bond is weaker than that of epoxy and cyanoacrylate adhesives, but it’s sufficient for attaching heat sinks. Since they remain tacky, you can detach and reposition parts.

ASTM E595—Adhesives that meet ASTM E595, a standard used by NASA, release almost no volatile emissions that could damage sensitive electronics, even in a vacuum.

Electrical Insulating Varnish


Aerosol Can	Bottle

Protect motor winding wire, transformers, and other metal electrical parts from oils, chemicals, and moisture with these abrasion- and wear-resistant coatings. They are solvent based, so they dry quickly. Choose a varnish with a dielectric strength that’s greater than the voltage of the electrical equipment it protects.

Bottle—Varnish in a bottle includes an application brush. The brush is also good for touchups.

Clear—Clear varnish leaves a transparent film so components can be inspected.

Red and Green—Red and green varnish stand out for identification when used to coat wire.

Cannot Be Sold To—Varnish that cannot be sold to the listed areas are restricted by product labeling requirements.
