Adhesives and chemistry
Adhesives and chemistry help with assembly, threading, joint repairs and maintenance of machine parts. The right tool can replace a mechanical lock or extend the life of a repair.
The choice depends on the materials to be joined, the required strength, temperature, resistance to oil or water and also the curing time. Other glue belongs to metal, others to plastic, rubber or a combined joint.
A common mistake is to use a universal chemistry regardless of joint play and operating loads. Surface preparation is also important for technical connections.
- verify the material of both parts to be joined
- distinguish between bonding, sealing, thread locking and surface repair
- monitor strength, temperature resistance and chemical environment
- consider cleaning and degreasing the surfaces before application
