Loctite’s line of structural adhesives is tough, versatile, and durable

Henkel offers structural adhesives under the Loctite and Teroson brand.

For the widest range of adhesives, businesses are wise to rely on the Loctite and Teroson brands by Henkel Canada Corporation. The company manufactures high-quality adhesives for a diverse variety of applications, including industrial structural adhesives under both brands. These Loctite and Teroson adhesives have been engineered to meet the needs of industrial bonding, sealing, and assembly tasks in manufacturing, providing tough, durable, and very reliable bonds.

Twice as strong as bolts

Available in several types (including HY 4060 GY, HY 4080 GY, and HY 4090 GY), Loctite and Teroson industrial structural adhesives create bonds that are twice as strong as bolts and longer-lasting than traditional fastening methods. These adhesives work well in a number of applications, including the following:

• Multiple surfaces – top strength when joining differing materials and surface types.
• Plastics and composites – the strongest, longest-lasting bond strength on these materials, even polyolefin.
• Metals – Henkel adhesives are built to handle modern metal-fabrication needs, like high strength, light weight, and low cost.
• Joint sealing – corrosion prevention, plus protection against the penetration of condensation water, to minimize the loss of pressure or fluid.
• Magnets – quick, durable bonds on ferrite, alnico, and neodymium iron boron permanent magnets.
• Noise, vibration, and harshness – These adhesives are designed to reduce noise and vibration levels in applications involving specialty vehicles and appliances.
• Potting and encapsulating – mechanical reinforcement for housed assembly protects components from chemicals, moisture, shock, and vibration while filling large voids.

These industrial structural adhesives offer considerable advantages over nails, screws, welds, and other traditional joining methods. They allow architects, engineers, and builders to fasten dissimilar materials by distributing stress evenly; they also bond easily to a variety of surfaces as they contribute to structure finishes, with better aesthetics. Loctite and Teroson adhesives also cost less, with fast processing speeds that reduce labour costs too.

Loctite and Teroson structural adhesives are available in user-friendly packaging that enables handheld, manual, or semi-automated application. This includes cartridges, dual cartridges, syringes, and soft-squeeze bottles. Larger packages for high-volume operations (five or 55 gallons) are available too.
