Crestabond M1-05 Structural Adhesive 400ml
The Crestabond M1-05 is a high-quality, two-component structural adhesive based on methyl methacrylate (MMA). This adhesive is specifically developed for bonding a wide range of materials, including metals, plastics, and composites. Thanks to the advanced formula, this adhesive offers an excellent balance between strength, flexibility, and speed, making it the ideal choice for industrial applications and demanding projects.
What makes the Crestabond M1-05 unique is its ability to create strong bonds with minimal surface preparation. This saves time in the production process without compromising the durability of the bond. The adhesive is highly resistant to shocks, vibrations, and extreme temperatures.
Key Features
- High strength: Provides superior adhesion that is often stronger than the base material itself.
- Minimal pre-treatment: Adheres excellently to most surfaces without the need for extensive sanding or priming.
- Tough bond: The adhesive retains its flexibility, making it resistant to mechanical stresses and temperature fluctuations.
- Fast curing: With a working time of 4 to 7 minutes, you can work efficiently on your assembly.
- Filling capability: The adhesive is thixotropic and can easily fill gaps and cracks up to 5 millimeters.
Specifications and Technical Details
The Crestabond M1-05 incorporates specific technical properties that ensure reliable results under harsh conditions. The mixing ratio of this product is 10 to 1 (volume), which ensures a stable chemical reaction. The colour of the adhesive after mixing is grey, which blends discreetly with most industrial components.
The working time (open time) is approximately 4 to 7 minutes at an ambient temperature of 23 degrees Celsius. The fixture time, the moment when the bond is handleable, is reached after about 12 to 18 minutes. For full curing, it is recommended to let the bond rest for 24 hours. The adhesive has a tensile strength of 17 to 20 MegaPascals (MPa) and an elongation at break of more than 75 percent. The viscosity is high, preventing the adhesive from running in vertical applications.
