Sealant suits automotive modules
Loctite 5252 is a medium-viscosity, UV and moisture curing sealant for post-assembly use on electronic module enclosures.
The high thermal conductivity of the adhesive provides excellent heat dissipation, while its self-shimming property produces a consistent 0.15mm film of adhesive giving predictable thermal transfer performance.
The material cures rapidly at room temperature, is electrically insulating and can be removed where rework is necessary.
The Loctite Output kit comprises Loctite 315 thermally conductive adhesive, 25ml syringe and activator in an 18ml brush top bottle.
Other kits in the range include adhesive kits, which are suitable for securing components onto printed circuit boards to provide resistance to impact shocks and thermal stresses.
The Loctite Tak Pak Kit comprises a high viscosity, clear instant adhesive and spray activator.
Used to secure smaller components to PCB assemblies and attaching ECO wires, it cures in seconds at room temperature and withstands high temperature and thermo-cycling.
For instantly securing larger components, bridging larger gaps or where greater shock resistance is required, the Loctite 4105 Black Tak Kit provides tough joints that are resistant to high temperatures.
The Loctite Chipbonder Kit is a fast curing one part adhesive for bonding surface mount devices to PCBs.
It cures rapidly under UV or IR rays.
For securing metal and plastic fasteners, the Loctite Varnistop kit is ideal for warranty seals, securing trim pot settings and enabling the visual inspection of adjustments.
For corrosion sensitive materials the Loctite Tempflex kit is a single component translucent paste that cures at room temperature to form a high strength flexible rubber bond.
It has applications in military, industrial and automotive electronics that are operating in harsh environments.
