Chemlok® EP6897-61 Adhesive Where to Buy
Product Information
LORD Chemlok® EP6897-61 adhesive is a one-coat adhesive used to bond castable and RIM urethane elastomers to metal. It is composed of a mixture of polymers and curatives dissolved in an organic solvent system.
Chemlok EP6897-61 adhesive is also used to bond a wide variety of both polyether and polyester castable urethanes to metal. This adhesive bonds with polyether and polyester castable urethanes of varying hardness, based on both TDI and MDI.
Chemlok EP6897-61 adhesive provides bond strengths greater than the tear strength of the urethane substrate.
Shelf Life
Shelf life is one year from date of shipment when stored in a well ventilated area at 21-27°C (70-80°F) in original, unopened container.
Features and Benefits
Versatile - bonds metal to a wide variety of polyether and polyester compounds include RIM urethane.
Convenient - requires only a single coat for most applications, minimizing application costs.
Fast Drying - dries fast to allow rapid turnaround times, reducing the number of coated parts kept in inventory.
Excellent Appearance - provides good cosmetics; does not interfere with aesthetics of finished part.
Economical - eliminates the need to inventory several adhesives due to the adhesive’s versatility.
