Anaerobic Adhesives
Tough, lockdown defenders against leaks and vibration loosening.
Protection against fluid migration
-
Anaerobic adhesives, sometimes called threadlockers, sealants or retaining compounds, are one-part adhesives that cure on active metal surfaces in the absence of oxygen in the bond line. The requirement for lack of oxygen means these chemistries do not bond well to glass, plastic or rubber. These products reduce maintenance and leakage to help keep factories running efficiently.
-
Shear StrengthThreadlockers provide strong bonds that resist both direct force and extended periods of vibration
-
Noise, Vibration & HarshnessStiff bonds resist vibration and reduce opportunities for loose parts to make unwanted noise
-
Water IntrusionPipe sealants inhibit leaks by preventing fluids from migrating along threaded fittings
-
3M anaerobic adhesives hold tight against vibrations and seeping fluids to keep your assemblies holding fast. Explore how they can be used for jobs such as locking threads and sealing pipe connections.
