Araldite 2014-2 is a two-component, room temperature curing, thixotropic paste adhesive of high strength with good environmental and excellent chemical resistance. They are used for bonding metals, electronic components, GRP structures, and many other items where a higher-than-average temperature or more aggressive environment is to be encountered in service.
Araldite 2014-2 gets straightforward processability combined with high chemical and temperature resistance in end cap filter bonding applications. Curing at room temperature, a reliable and long-lasting bond is created with resistance to hydraulic oils and temperatures up to 140ºC.
In addition, it helps to make precisely positioned bonds with less risk of shrinkage (application: bonding critical components to a GRP tube in an MRI scanner). The intrinsic temperature resistance of the adhesive allows it to resist the curing temperature of the injected resin system. The cartridge format of Araldite 2014-2 adhesive makes it easy to use in confined spaces, and the low shrinkage rate allows for tight tolerances.
Araldite 2014-2 is a thixotropic paste adhesive that cures at room temperature and consists of two components. It possesses high strength and excellent chemical resistance, making it suitable for bonding metals, electronic components, and GRP structures. Araldite 2014-2 is especially useful in applications where higher temperatures or more aggressive environments are encountered. When used in end cap filter bonding applications, Araldite 2014-2 provides straightforward processability combined with high chemical and temperature resistance. The adhesive creates a reliable and long-lasting bond that can withstand hydraulic oils and temperatures up to 140 C. Additionally, Araldite 2014-2 reduces the risk of shrinkage and helps to create precisely positioned bonds. This makes it an ideal choice for bonding critical components to a GRP tube.
