Methyl Methacrylate Adhesives are two part structural strength adhesives suited for applications that demand dynamic load bearing, high impact and high vibration resistance. Their ability to bond a wide range of substrates including Plastics, Composites, Metals among many others make them the adhesive of choice for applications in industries such as Automotive, Marine, Wind, Composite, Coach and others. MMAs can cure very rapidly and coupled with their tolerance for off mixing ratio, they offer strategic advantages over other two component adhesives such as epoxies.

Methyl Methacrylate Adhesives

Crestabond M1 Series Methacrylate
Adhesives

M1 series of Crestabond methacrylate adhesives are 10:1 mix ratio structural grade medium to high strength adhesives with high elongation and high gap fill upto 50mm. They are non-sag on vertical surfaces

Crestabond M7 Series Methacrylate
Adhesives

M7 series of Crestabond methacrylate adhesives are 1:1 mix ratio structural grade high strength adhesives with low elongation. They are especially developed to bond difficult metals and plastics such as galvanised steel, zinc coated metals, chrome plated metals and SMC, BMC, Nylon and pultruded GRP.

Frequently asked questions

Why should I use a Methacrylate (MMA) adhesive when a high quality epoxy adhesive offers me same strength as methacrylate adhesive

There are many advantages that a methacrylate adhesive offers over an epoxy adhesive.For instance, MMA achieves strength rapidly,needs little or no surface preparation and can bond plastics as well as metals with equal ease.They also have much higher peel strength than an epoxy adhesive.

Mostly MMAs are colored products making them unsuitable to bond transparent parts,howeverLoxeal laboratories have sucessfully rolled our transparent MMA such as AC5004 that not only provide tenacious bond strength but a fully transparent bondline.

We have introduced a range of products that are well suited for powder coating process.As an example take EL-801PC, a methacrylate adhesives that cures rapidlyand can be passed through seven tank surface preparation procss before being powder coated upto 200°C, all only after an hour of room temperature curing.
