Description
LORD® 5206 acrylic adhesive, used in combination with LORD Accelerator 55GB, is a two-component, structural methacrylate adhesive formulated to replace welding, brazing, and mechanical fasteners. Designed for high-performance industrial applications, it provides outstanding impact strength, peel resistance, and durability over a wide range of service temperatures.
The integrated glass beads in LORD Accelerator 55GB (0.01 in / 0.025 cm) precisely control bondline thickness, ensuring uniform adhesive distribution and consistent joint quality.
Key Features and Benefits
-
Structural Strength: Replaces welding and mechanical fasteners with high shear and peel strength.
-
Versatile Bonding: Bonds unprepared metals, composites, and plastics with minimal surface preparation.
-
High Temperature Resistance: Performs reliably from -40°F to +300°F (-40°C to +149°C).
-
Environmental Durability: Resistant to moisture, solvents, oils, dilute acids, and salt spray.
-
Non-Sag Formula: Suitable for vertical and overhead applications.
-
Controlled Bondline: Glass bead reinforcement maintains optimal adhesive thickness.
-
Fast Fixture Time: Achieves handling strength in approximately 25 minutes at room temperature.
Common Applications
-
Metal and composite assembly
-
HVAC and appliance manufacturing
-
Truck, trailer, and rail car panels
-
Industrial equipment bonding
-
Enclosure and housing fabrication
