How to Bond Fiberglass

How to bond fiberglass (also known as GRP or glass reinforced plastic)? This is a composite material with extremely high structural strength making it popular for high impact or highly stressed applications. It is lightweight, and there is a strong requirement for adhesives to bond fiberglass as it cannot be welded and mechanical fasteners not […]
How to bond fiber reinforced plastic

How to bond FRP (fiber reinforced plastic)? FRP is a composite material with extremely high structural strength making it popular for high impact or highly stressed applications. It is lightweight, and there is a strong requirement for adhesives to bond FRP as it cannot be welded, and mechanical fasteners not only add to the component […]
How to bond carbon fiber

How to bond carbon fiber reinforced polymer (also known as CRP or CFRP)? CRP is a composite material with extremely high structural strength making it popular for high impact or highly stressed applications. It is lightweight, and there is a strong requirement for adhesives for bonding this material as it cannot be welded, and mechanical […]
Diamond Bonding Adhesives

About Diamond Bonding Adhesives Diamond bonding adhesives must be rugged. Because diamond is the hardest known natural material on earth, various industries use it for cutting tools. Consequently, the adhesive bonds must be high strength, vibration resistant, chemical resistant, and temperature resistant. Featured Product: Permabond ES550 Excellent adhesive strength Excellent resistance to vibration Easy to […]
How to bond natural rubber

How to Bond Natural Rubber Permabond 105 is the first choice for bonding natural rubber. PERMABOND® 105 is a low viscosity high purity cyanoacrylate adhesive. It is ideal for use on plastics and rubbers such as natural rubber, EPDM, and butyl rubber. It is a difficult substrate for most adhesives, but there is no need […]
How to bond Nitrile Rubber

How to bond nitrile rubber Bond nitrile rubber with either Permabond Cyanoacrylates or Permabond Structural Acrylic Adhesives. Cyanoacrylates Permabond adhesive products found to bond nitrile rubber well are cyanoacrylate adhesives – generally the rubber will tear before the adhesive fails. All grades adhere well to nitrile rubber. If you need some flexibility, consider Permabond 731, […]
Bonding Low & High Density Polyethylene with Industrial Adhesives

What is the best adhesive for polyethylene (LDPE, HDPE, and UHMW)? Permabond has developed a line of specialty acrylic adhesives for polyethylene that form strong bonds without surface treatment or primer. PE is the abbreviation for Polyethylene. Low density polyethylene is LDPE and similarly HDPE for high-density Polyethylene. Lastly, UHMW stands for Ultra High Molecular […]
How to bond magnets

Magnet Bonding All things considered, there are a variety of adhesive types that bond magnets so the features and benefits of each type are listed below to assist in choosing the best type for each application. Epoxy adhesives One and two component epoxy adhesives form strong resistant bonds to various types of magnets. Ask Permabond […]
How to Bond Mild Steel – Carbon Steel

Mild steel (or carbon steel) is common for automotive and machine components. There are several adhesive options to bond mild steel. So you can select adhesives based on the environmental, temperature and chemical resistance needed. The key to a good bond on mild steel is proper surface preparation. Surface preparation of mild steel 1. […]
How to Bond Copper

Bonding Copper A variety of adhesive types readily bond copper and its alloys. Many prefer adhesives over soldering as adhesives do not heat damage the copper. Anaerobics Anaerobic adhesives cure in the presence of metal and the absence of oxygen. Copper is one of the most reactive metals, so the anaerobic adhesive will set up […]
How to Bond EPDM

Bonding EPDM EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) rubber is a type of synthetic rubber elastomer. It has excellent heat and chemical resistance, and because of that, its use is widespread – particularly in the automotive industry. It is normally black, non-tacky, and often has a slightly dusty feel about it. Bonding EPDM can be done […]
