Ready for Action Adhesive

Permabond Europe is excited to introduce its latest toughened acrylic adhesive, Permabond TA4208 Black. This innovative product has been formulated with the ever-expanding composite materials market in mind. Engineered to accommodate a diverse range of industries, the versatile TA4208 Black is truly a must-have adhesive.

This two-part, 1:1 toughened acrylic is user-friendly, perfect for application with a dispensing gun. Notably, its high viscosity and non-slumping nature make it ideal for vertical uses and gap filling. Its standout feature lies in its surface adhesion technology, allowing it to bond through oxide layers or oily surfaces, thus eliminating the need for extensive surface preparation. This is a big time-saver, especially for fast production lines. Additionally, its rapid strength development further underscores its time-efficient qualities, achieving high peel and shear strength within just 20 minutes after bonding.

TA4208 Black exhibits excellent adhesion to a wide array of substrates such as metals, plastics, composites, ceramics, and woods, and bonds dissimilar surfaces well. Specifically tailored for bonding composites, its controlled flow and jet black finish offer precise application, while enabling seamless integration with carbon fibre and facilitating production uniformity.

Applications for this adhesive span various industries, including automotive, wind turbines, sports equipment, and medical devices like prosthetics. Its superior environmental and chemical resistance make it an ideal choice for outdoor or chemical-exposed applications in automotive or medical sectors.
