Adhesives provide freedom of choice
Air conditioning units benefit from the use of adhesive bonding to join a variety of metal and non-metallic materials.
The adhesive also proved to be easy to use, having a 1:1 mix ratio, being very easy to mix, having excellent gap fill and back-filling properties which are ideal for the easy formation of fillet profiles.
V1315 offers the capability of bonding a range of substrates not only carbon fibre but steel, aluminium, GRP, plastics such as PMMA, PC, PS, ABS, nylon as well as epoxy, and phenolic composites.
Its thixotropic, non-drip feature makes it ideal for filling large gaps, frequently required when bonding GRP and composite materials.
This new acrylic adhesive is now being used in a number of other structural bonding applications including the construction of military, aerospace and automotive equipment.
