When a repair needs to be made, every second spent searching for the right adhesive for the job, or waiting for it to set, costs money in downtime. To address these issues, HENKEL developed its LOCTITE® Universal Bonders, adhesives born out of hybrid technology, that will bond almost any material, with fast fixture and cure speeds, in all types of operating conditions.

For many companies, LOCTITE HY 4070 has certainly lived up to its name by providing an effective structural bonding adhesive for a wide range of applications involving plastics, rubbers and metals.  And it is this scope that has led HENKEL to introduce a larger pack size of the product, making it even more economical for sustained, general use.  LOCTITE HY 4070 is therefore now available in both the original 11g pack and the new 45g size that is dispensed via handgun.

In particular, LOCTITE HY 4070 has proved a superior alternative to traditional five-minute epoxies which are suitable for a limited range of materials and perform poorly on plastics.  As well as having a slow fixture time they take longer to build full cure strength, especially in cold temperatures, and cannot cure through gaps quickly.

By comparison, LOCTITE HY 4070 bonds to almost any material, including plastics, and bonds them faster than five-minute epoxies whatever the ambient temperature.  It has gap filling ability and builds strength fast with good thermal and environmental durability.
