Adhesive Systems RP 200 Cyanoacrylate Adhesive

Description

Adhesive Systems RP 200 is a medium-viscosity ethyl cyanoacrylate for fast bonding of similar and dissimilar materials in production and repair work. The current Technical Data Sheet lists 200 cP viscosity, clear color, specific gravity of 1.05, and handling strength in about 10 seconds for a wide range of metals, plastics, rubber, and other common industrial substrates.

Adhesive Systems RP 200 Benefits

• 200 cP viscosity gives more placement control than a water-thin instant adhesive while still flowing into small bond lines.
• About 10-second handling strength helps speed assembly, light fixturing, and repair tasks.
• Works across metals, ABS, PVC, polycarbonate, neoprene, wood, leather, and other production materials listed on the TDS.
• Ethyl cyanoacrylate base is a familiar fit for shops already using one-component instant adhesives.
• High retained strength in several solvent-resistance tests helps support broader industrial use.

This grade fits buyers who need a general-purpose instant adhesive rather than a specialty primer system or a high-gap formula. It is commonly used where the parts meet fairly well, quick handling is important, and a one-component room-temperature cure keeps the process simple.

Common Applications for Adhesive Systems RP 200

• Bonding ABS, PVC, and polycarbonate parts in assembly or repair work.
• Joining steel, aluminum, brass, and plated parts where fast set time matters.
• Handling bench repairs on rubber, leather, fiberglass, and wood components.
• Supporting general manufacturing, maintenance, and short-run production jobs.

Adhesive Systems RP 200 Technical Details

• Published viscosity: 200 cP.
• Base chemistry: ethyl cyanoacrylate.
• Typical handling strength: 10 seconds.
• Fixture time examples: steel under 20 seconds, aluminum under 15 seconds, ABS under 10 seconds.
• Tensile strength on steel: greater than 1800 psi, ISO 6922.
• Dielectric constant and volume resistivity data are listed in the TDS for electrical applications review.

For best results, the TDS calls for clean bonding surfaces and notes that larger gaps will lengthen cure speed. It also recommends using a higher-viscosity grade when parts do not mate flush. For broader adhesive industry reference, review The Adhesive and Sealant Council.
