LOCTITE® 4305: Fast-Curing, Dual-Cure Instant Adhesive for Plastics, Rubber & Metals
LOCTITE® 4305 is a versatile cyanoacrylate adhesive that offers both light and moisture cure capabilities, ideal for various industrial applications. This transparent, rigid adhesive delivers:
- Superior Bonding: Bonds well to plastics, rubbers, and metals, making it suitable for a wide range of materials.
- Fast Curing: Achieves a very fast fixture time (2 seconds) and tack-free time (less than 5 seconds) with minimal blooming.
- Dual Cure Mechanism: Cures using low-intensity light (UV/visible) or surface moisture, providing flexibility in production processes.
- Light Cure Benefits: Enables faster curing of exposed surfaces, minimizing blooming and offering an alternative to harsh solvents.
- Biocompatible: Meets ISO-10993 standards for safe use in some medical devices.
- Difficult Plastics Adhesion: Works effectively with hard-to-bond plastics when used with LOCTITE® Primer SF 770/7701 (sold separately).
- ISO-10993
Applications:
- Ideal for bonding applications requiring rapid fixturing, fillet cure, or surface cure.
- Suitable for use in the assembly of disposable medical devices.
