LOCTITE EA (Hysol) D609 is an exceptional epoxy formulation recommended for lower temperature or wet industrial bonding applications where fast curing is required. This ultra clear, two part, low viscosity system mixes easily at room temperature. It is suitable for high performance structural bonding applications requiring a combination of very fast room temperature cure, low shrinkage, and excellent mechanical properties. Fully cured EA (Hysol) D609 is an excellent electrical insulator and provides superior resistance to vapors and gases, water, galvanic action, petroleum fuels, salt solution and many other organic and inorganic compounds.
Recommended Substrates
metals, phenolic plastics, polyester, glass and glass fabrics, hardboards and forestry products, ceramics, rubber, masonry materials and other construction materials.
Features
- Very Fast Room Temperature
- No Solvents
- Easy to Mix

Handling
Mixing:Thisproductrequiresmixingtwocomponentstogetherjustpriortoapplication.Completemixingisnecessary.Thetemperatureoftheseparatecomponentspriortomixingisnotcritical,buttheyshouldbeclosetoroomtemperature.
Application
Bonding surfaces should be clean and dry.Once the adhesive is applied, the bonded parts should be held in contact until the part has developed handling strength. It is not necessary to clamp the parts unless movement during cure is likely.
Mixing - Cartridges: Place cartridge in proper dispenser. To begin using a new cartridge, remove the cap and dispense a small amount of adhesive, making sure both parts A & B are extruding. Attach nozzle and dispense approximately 1-2" before applying onto the part to be bonded. Partially used cartridges should be stored with the mixing nozzle attached. To reuse, remove and discard the old nozzle, attach the new nozzle, and begin dispensing.
Mixing - Bulk: Combine Part A (resin) and Part B (hardener) in the correct ratio (1:1) and mix thoroughly until the color and consistency are uniform. Ratios given above can be used for measuring larger amounts. Mixing the adhesive just prior to use is recommended. Heat buildup during or after mixing is normal. Do not mix quantities greater than 1/2 pound as dangerous heat buildup can occur causing uncontrolled decomposition of the mixed adhesive. Mixing smaller quantities will minimize the heat buildup.
Cure
Complete cure is obtained after 24 hours at 77°F. EA (Hysol) D609 will achieve handling strength after 10 minutes at 77°F (note: this can vary with different bond configurations).
Clean Up
It is important to remove excess adhesive from the work area and application equipment before it hardens. Many common solvents and citrus cleaners are suitable for removing uncured adhesive. Consult with your supplier's information pertaining to the safe and proper use of solvents.

Product Name: Loctite EA D609 Moisture & Chemical-Resistant 5-Min Setting Epoxy (formerly Hysol D609)
Loctite EA D609 is a specialty 5-minute epoxy designed for applications where rapid curing must be balanced with superior environmental resistance. Unlike standard 5-minute epoxies that may degrade when exposed to moisture or chemicals, D609 is formulated to maintain high strength and excellent electrical insulation properties even in harsh environments. It cures to a very clear, rigid finish, making it ideal for both bonding and potting applications.
Popular Applications & Uses
- Potting and encapsulating electronic components that are exposed to moisture or chemicals.
- Bonding metals, ceramics, and plastics in environments where standard epoxies would fail.
- Rapid assembly of parts requiring high shear strength and environmental durability.
- Sealing and insulating electrical connections.
- General-purpose bonding where clarity and speed are required.
Industries that Commonly Use It
- Electronics (Potting, encapsulation)
- General Industrial Manufacturing
- Marine (Moisture resistance)
- Chemical Processing (Chemical resistance)
- Maintenance and Repair (MRO)
Special and Unique Features
- Chemical & Moisture Resistance: Superior resistance to water, salt solutions, petroleum fuels, and many organic/inorganic compounds compared to standard 5-minute epoxies.
- Fast Setting: 5-minute work life for rapid assembly.
- Very Clear: Cures to a transparent finish, useful for aesthetic bonds or potting where visibility is needed.
- Electrical Insulator: Excellent dielectric strength makes it suitable for potting electronics.
- Self-Leveling: Medium viscosity allows it to flow and fill voids easily.

Known backups / known substitutes for this product
- 3M Scotch-Weld DP100 (Clear, fast, rigid - though check chemical resistance specs for specific chemicals).
- Loctite EA E-00CL (Fast, clear, machinable).
- Master Bond EP51M (Fast setting, chemically resistant).
Comparison Note
- Loctite EA D609 stands out from the crowd of "5-minute epoxies" (like EA 608 or generic hardware store epoxy) because of its **resistance profile**. Most fast-cure epoxies are susceptible to water and chemical attack over time; D609 is engineered to resist them while still offering the convenience of a snap-cure.
