Application Guidance
Ensure bonding surfaces are clean and free from contaminants before assembly. Position components and apply TrimLok™ UV3206 LV so the adhesive can wick into the joint through capillary action. Hold parts firmly in place and expose the bond line to a suitable UV light source within the 365-420 nm wavelength range until fixture strength is achieved.
Typical Use Cases
- Trimless letter fabrication
- Trim cap to acrylic face bonding
- Aluminum extrusion to acrylic face bonding

- Architectural signage manufacturing
- Retail signage production
- Tight-tolerance plastic assemblies
Target Industries and Buyers
- Sign manufacturers
- Channel letter fabricators
- Architectural signage companies
- Retail display manufacturers
- Plastic fabrication shops
- OEM assembly operations
Performance Advantages
TrimLok™ UV3206 LV combines ultra-low viscosity with UV-curing technology, allowing the adhesive to penetrate narrow gaps and seams that are difficult to access with higher-viscosity products. Its rapid fixture capability helps improve assembly efficiency while producing clean, low-visibility bond lines in trimless letter and trim cap applications.
Common Questions
Q: What is included in the TrimLok™ UV3206 LV Starter Kit?
A: The kit includes TrimLok™ UV3206 LV adhesive, a UV curing light, and UV safety glasses.
Q: What type of adhesive is UV3206 LV?
A: It is a UV-curable methacrylate ester adhesive.
Q: What materials can it bond?
A: It is designed for acrylic, polycarbonate, rigid PVC, aluminum, and common signage materials.
Q: Does the adhesive require UV light to cure?
