Loctite EA 9460 Hysol Structural Epoxy Adhesive

Overview

Loctite EA 9460 (formerly Hysol 9460) is a 2-part, gray, thixotropic epoxy adhesive with very high peel and excellent shear strength, formulated for bonding dissimilar substrates such as metals, engineering thermoplastics and thermoset laminates (SMC) without primers. Its non-sagging paste is easy to mix and dispense, with an extended working life and resistance to automotive fluids.
