Product Name
Permabond Cyanoacrylate 795 Instant Adhesive-for Difficult Plastics & Rubbers
Brief Description
Permabond® 795 is a moderate viscosity, surface-insensitive cyanoacrylate adhesive designed for rapid bonding of a wide range of substrates, including difficult plastics, rubbers, metals, ceramics, and wood. It offers fast cure times, minimizes frosting and fogging, and is suitable for high-speed production lines.
Popular Applications & Uses
- Rapid assembly operations involving small components.- Bonding substrates with acidic surfaces such as wood and plated surfaces.- Bonding plastics, metals, ceramics, and elastomers (rubbers).- High-speed production lines.- Precision assembly applications.- Post-assembly bonding and micro-crack sealing.- Medical device and electronic component assembly.- Military, aerospace, and automotive manufacturing.- Model and jewelry assembly.- Fabric and leather bonding.- Speaker bonding.
Industries that Commonly Use It
- Aerospace/Defense- Automotive Service/Repair- Cabinet & Woodworking- Chemical Industry- Distributers & Resellers- Electrical Services or Products (LED/Electronics)- Fabrication- Furniture- General Manufacturing- Government & Military- Medical Device/ Prosthetics- Metal Fabrication- Plastic Fabrication- Sign & Display- Transportation/ Specialty Vehicle
Special and Unique Features
- Extremely fast setting / Ultra-fast cure time (achieves handling strength in 4 seconds).- Rapid development of high strength.- Surface insensitive (bonds acidic and difficult-to-bond surfaces).- Single-part, no mixing or heat cure required.- Minimizes frosting and fogging.- 100% reactive, solvent-free (no VOCs).- Moderate viscosity for versatile and controlled application.- MIL-SPEC Compliant: Meets MIL-A-46050C Type II, Class 3 and CID A-A-3097 Type II, Class 3.- Bonds well to plastics and rubbers.
Key Properties
- Chemical composition: Ethyl cyanoacrylate.- Appearance: Colourless / Clear.- Viscosity @ 25°C: 500 mPa.s (cP).- Specific gravity: 1.1.- Maximum gap fill: 0.18 mm (0.007 in).- Fixture/Handling Time: 4 seconds (Steel, Buna-N Rubber, Phenolic).- Full Cure Time: 24 hours.- Shear Strength (ISO 4587): Steel: 18-22 N/mm² (2600-3200 psi).- Impact Strength (ASTM D-950): 3-5 kJ/m² (1.4-2.4 ft-lb/in²).- Temperature Range: -55°C to 82°C (-65°F to 180°F).
