ABLESTIK D275

Main features

  • 31 N/mm^2 Aluminum Lap Shear
  • 60-Minute 100 deg C Cure
  • Semi-Rigid Cured Material

Product Description

LOCTITE® ABLESTIK D 275 is a one-component, heat-cured epoxy adhesive for high-strength structural bonding of metals, plastics, and ceramics. The black liquid cures to a semi-rigid material intended to reduce stress on bonded components while providing good toughness. Typical cured performance includes aluminum-to-aluminum tensile lap shear strength of 31 N/mm² at 25°C and tensile peel strength of 2,100 N/m. Guideline cure schedules range from 60 minutes at 100°C to 6 minutes at 160°C, with a documented operating-temperature range of -40 to 130°C.

Key features

  • High structural-bond strength: Typical aluminum-to-aluminum tensile lap shear strength is 31 N/mm² at 25°C.
  • Fast heat-cure options: Guideline schedules include 60 minutes at 100°C, 20 minutes at 120°C, or 6 minutes at 160°C.
  • Semi-rigid cured material: Designed to reduce stress on bonded components while maintaining good toughness and peel strength.

Applications / Suitable for

  • High-strength structural bonding
  • Bonding metals
  • Bonding plastics
  • Bonding ceramics

Physical Properties
Viscosity
Viscosity is a measurement of a fluid’s resistance to flow. Viscosity is commonly measured in centiPoise (cP). One cP is defined as the viscosity of water and all other viscosities are derived from this base. MPa is another common unit with a 1:1 conversion to cP. A product like honey would have a much higher viscosity -around 10,000 cPs- compared to water. As a result, honey would flow much slower out of a tipped glass than water would. The viscosity of a material can be decreased with an increase in temperature in order to better suit an application

Volume Resistivity
Volume resistivity, also called volume resistance, bulk resistance or bulk resistivity is a thickness dependent measurement of the resistivity of a material perpendicular to the plane of the surface.
