Acrylic adhesive system helps eliminate read-through

Lord Corp. has introduced an acrylic adhesive system, Lord 810 LRT, designed to eliminate read-through. When cured with Lord Accelerator 20, the adhesive creates a flexible system for bonding metals, such as aluminum, galvanized steel, and cold-rolled steel.

The adhesive system delivers fast cure speed and strong bonding with little to no bond-line read-through, according to the company. The accelerator allows control of the adhesive bond-line thickness because of its content of glass beads.

Requiring little or no substrate preparation for bonding metals, the adhesive remains in position when applied on vertical or overhead surfaces. It resists dilute acids, alkalis, solvents, greases, oils, and moisture, as well as UV exposure and weathering.
