Choose the adhesive most fitted to your product

Your expectations

You want to:

• perform multi-material assemblies: integrate thermoplastic or thermosetting composites, glass, ceramic material, etc
• make productivity gains: reduction of assembling costs, simplification of machining tolerances, material reduction, etc
• provide your assemblies with additional functions: improve the integrity of your structures (no drilling or thermal damage), leak tightness, shock absorption, elimination of galvanic corrosion, etc
• impove the aesthetic of your parts

But you have to choose the product with the best cost-performance ratio within the framework of your application.
