LOCTITE® 495 (OLD)

November-2010

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Polycarbonate 20 to 60

LOCTITE® 495 (OLD) provides the following product Phenolic 5 to 20
characteristics:
Technology Cyanoacrylate
Chemical Type Ethyl cyanoacrylate
Cure Speed vs. Bond Gap
Appearance (uncured) Transparent, colorless to straw The rate of cure will depend on the bondline gap. Thin bond
colored liquidLMS lines result in high cure speeds, increasing the bond gap will
Components One part - requires no mixing decrease the rate of cure.
Viscosity Low
Cure Humidity Cure Speed vs. Humidity
Application Bonding The rate of cure will depend on the ambient relative humidity.
Key Substrates Plastics, Rubbers and Metals The following graph shows the tensile strength developed with
time on Buna N rubber at different levels of humidity.
