LOCTITE AA 3412

Main features

  • High-Strength Structural Bonding
  • Non-Sag Placement Control
  • Fast Room Temperature Curing

Product Description

LOCTITE® AA 3412™ is a two-component, room-temperature-curing structural acrylic adhesive designed for high-strength bonding of metals, many plastics, composites, ceramics, fiberglass, and other rigid substrates. Its non-sag gel consistency supports vertical application and large-gap filling, while the mixed adhesive develops tough, impact-resistant, peel-resistant bonds with strong resistance to fuels, lubricants, cleaners, heat, humidity, and demanding industrial environments.

Key features

  • High-strength structural bonding: Delivers strong lap-shear, peel, and impact performance across metals, plastics, composites, and ceramics.
  • Non-sag gap filling: High-viscosity gel consistency supports vertical dispensing and bonding where larger gaps must be filled.
  • Fast room-temperature processing: Provides approximately five minutes of working time and fixtures on steel in about 12 to 15 minutes.

Specific Gravity
Specific gravity (SG) is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a reference substance; equivalently, it is the ratio of the mass of a substance to the mass of a reference substance for the same given volume. For liquids, the reference substance is almost always water (1), while for gases, it is air (1.18) at room temperature. Specific gravity is unitless.

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
