Loctite 454 Cyanoacrlylate Instant Adhesive - Non Sag Gel

When to Use Loctite 454 Cyanoacrylate Instant Adhesive

Use Loctite 454 cyanoacrylate, a non-sag super glue adhesive, for gap filling applications. Loctite 454 is a surface insensitive adhesive meaning it creates fast, strong bonds even to difficult substrates. Loctite 454 is available in a wide range of sizes including 10 and 30 gram syringes, perfect for manual and semi-automatic dispensing systems.

Use a cyanoacrylate accelerator for even faster bond speeds. 

Details

LOCTITE® 454™ is designed for the assembly of difficult-to- bond materials which require uniform stress distribution and strong tension and/or shear strength. The product provides rapid bonding of a wide range of materials, including metals, plastics and elastomers. The gel consistency prevents adhesive flow even on vertical surfaces. LOCTITE® 454™ is also suited for bonding porous materials such as wood, paper, leather and fabric.

Application Directions

1. Bond areas should be clean and free from grease. Clean all surfaces with a Loctite® cleaning solvent and allow to dry.
2. To improve bonding on low energy plastic surfaces, Loctite® Primer may be applied to the bond area. Avoid applying excess Primer. Allow the Primer to dry.
3. LOCTITE® Activator may be used if necessary. Apply it to one bond surface (do not apply activator to the primed surface where Primer is also used). Allow the Activator to dry.
