Harmonization Code : 3824.99.92.97 | Prepared binders for foundry molds or cores; chemical products and preparations of the chemical or allied industries (including those consisting of mixtures of natural products), not elsewhere specified or included: other : other : other
Main features
- Activator-Managed Fast Fixturing
- High-Shear Structural Bonding
- Thermal-Shock-Resistant Bonded Assemblies
Product Description
Dymax 846-GEL Structural Adhesive is a high-strength structural adhesive gel that cures through contact with specified Dymax activators, including 535-A-REV-A and 501-E-REV-A. The gel form supports controlled placement before assembly, while activator selection and application govern fixture development and final bond performance. Product data support high tensile-shear strength and thermal-shock resistance within the tested substrate and cure configurations. Applications include bonding ferrite magnets in DC motor assemblies, joining dissimilar substrates, and bonding metal frames where the activator, surface preparation, bondline, and service conditions are appropriate.
Key features
- Activator-controlled cure: Specified Dymax activators initiate fixture and final bond development.
- High tensile-shear performance: The cured adhesive is positioned for structural joints within the tested configurations.
- Thermal-shock resistance: The bonded assembly is documented for thermal-shock exposure under product-specific conditions.
Applications / Suitable for
- Ferrite magnet bonding in DC motor assemblies
- Joining dissimilar substrates
- Metal frame bonding
