LOCTITE® EA 3450 is a two component epoxy adhesive that cures rapidly at room temperature after mixing. It is a metal bonding adhesive that develops high resistance. The gap-filling properties make this adhesive system suitable for rough and ill-fitting surfaces of metal, ceramic, rigid plastics or wood. Applications include joining aluminum window frames and GRP panels.
