LOCTITE EA 7000 AERO has excellent performance properties in composite bonding, and superior results on composite surfaces that have been exposed to bond shop environments and may have absorbed moisture. It also exhibits excellent fracture toughness (G1C) over composite surfaces exhibiting cohesive failure patterns, indicating superior adhesion characteristics.
Features
- Good G1C results on cured composites with residual moisture
- Qualified by major OEMs
Benefits
- Good durability with cohesive failure on pre-cured composites
- Good durability under secondary shop floor processes, such as attaching fasteners and hardware; minimizes adhesive flash on tools, improving productivity on cleaning tools
- Excellent peel and -67 ºF (-55 ºC) properties
- Excellent hot-wet resistance
- Dual temperature cure capabilities 250 ºF (121 ºC) or 350 ºF (180 ºC)
Structural Aerospace Applications
- Composite repair
- Composite surfacing
- Bonding pre-cured composite
- Co-curing with composite prepregs
