A Better Alternative to Welds

Customers frequently ask us for our thoughts on the best bonding methods for their projects. If you thought we’d be recommending welding, riveting, brazing, or other mechanical fastening means, you may be surprised to know we actually recommend an adhesive offered by our friends at LORD Corporation. Whether you have a high or low temperature environment, LORD Maxlok Acrylic Adhesives were designed to offer one of the cleanest looks, highest durability, maximal peel loads, and best quality product for your project.

We don’t blame you if you are a bit skeptical, but when put to the test, this Acrylic Adhesive outperformed these others with plenty of room to spare. When put to the test, LORD Maxlok showed just how much more powerful it was. Take a look at the breaking points, and determine for yourself the best solution:

  • Aluminum weld breaking point – 1056 lbs
  • Galvanized steel weld breaking point – 1096 lbs
  • LORD Maxlok adhesives – 4513 lbs

If you’re considering investing in something to reduce stress points, leaks, or cycle times in your transportation or shipping project, this is certainly the product for you. It’s also been proven to easily mediate the application of logos and advertisements, as well as increase wind load resistance or design pressure on windows and doors for your construction project.
