LORD 406/19GB 4-6 Minute "Glass-Bead" formula Temperature Resistant, Non-Sag acrylic adhesive

Product Name

- LORD 406/19GB 4-6 Minute "Glass-Bead" formula Temperature Resistant, Non-Sag acrylic adhesive

Brief Description

- LORD 406/19GB is a two-component, non-sag acrylic adhesive system that incorporates glass beads for precise bondline thickness control. It is engineered for high-performance structural bonding of a wide variety of prepared or unprepared metals and engineered plastics. This adhesive system offers exceptional impact and peel strengths and cures at room temperature, making it a robust alternative to traditional mechanical fastening methods.

Popular Applications & Uses

- Replacing welding, brazing, riveting, and other mechanical fastening methods- Bonding a wide range of unprepared metals- Bonding engineered thermoplastics including XENOY®, polycarbonate, ABS, and acrylics- Sign assembly and display applications- Manufacturing of heavy-duty trucks and trailers- Construction applications such as corner key joints, perimeter bond frames, internal reinforcements, astragals, "dowel" joints, and cladding in the window and door industry

Industries that Commonly Use It

- Automotive Service/Repair- Construction/ Building Services- Fabrication- General Manufacturing- Metal Fabrication- Plastic Fabrication- Sign & Display- Transportation/ Specialty Vehicle

Special and Unique Features

- **Glass Microbead Infused:** Contains 0.25 mm diameter, high compression strength solid glass spheres for precise control of adhesive bondline thickness- **Non-Sag Formula:** Maintains its position when applied on vertical or overhead surfaces, providing greater process flexibility- **High Impact and Peel Strengths:** Formulated to deliver some of the highest impact and peel strengths available in a room temperature curing adhesive- **Room Temperature Cure:** Achieves handling strength quickly and fully cures at room temperature- **UL Rated:** UL 879 or UL 746C certified when mixed with LORD Accelerator 19, ensuring enhanced safety and reliability
