    Light-Activated Instant-Bond Adhesives

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Instant-Bond Adhesives. Light-Activated Instant-Bond Adhesives.
    Take your time positioning parts that require precise alignment, such as optical instruments. Instead of gripping immediately, these adhesives only harden when you expose them to a compatible light source.
    Thin Liquid—Seep into narrow gaps and joints that thick-liquid adhesives can't reach. Use when bonding close-fitting parts.
    ISO 10993—Comply with biocompatibility standards for medical-grade applications.

    Fill gaps up to 0.01" to secure unthreaded cylindrical metal parts such as shafts, bearings, and press-fit assemblies. These retaining compounds begin to harden once coated surfaces are pressed together, blocking exposure to air.
    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.

    Cartridge

    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.
    Paste—Thicker than liquid adhesives but still spreadable—good for filling gaps and covering surfaces.

    Even on oily surfaces, these retaining compounds keep their hold. Use them to fill gaps up to 0.015" to secure worn cylindrical metal parts such as shafts, bearings, and press-fit assemblies. These retaining compounds begin to harden once coated surfaces are pressed together, blocking exposure to air.
    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.
    High Locking Strength—Compounds with high locking strength require both heat and a hand tool to unthread.

    These coatings are formulated for use in sensitive applications such as manufacturing semiconductors. Thinner than potting compounds, they flow easily into small spaces between electrical components. The coatings begin to harden when exposed to UV light. Use them to secure and insulate hardware on printed circuit boards. A gun (sold separately) is required to dispense them.

    High-Temperature Wicking Threadlockers

    Bottle

    Resistant to high temperatures, these threadlockers maintain a strong grip in environments up to 450° F. The thin liquid seeks out tiny gaps to bond fasteners that are already installed.
    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.
