Anaerobic adhesives
Our state-of-the-art anaerobic adhesives are the ideal solution for securely bonding metal components. They not only offer strong adhesion but also reliably fill in irregularities and gaps, such as threaded connections, completely. A typical application for anaerobic adhesives is thread locking, where they play an indispensable role.
Anaerobic adhesives cure quickly and efficiently once they come into contact with metal and are deprived of oxygen. This property makes them particularly useful for industrial applications where a permanent and durable bond is required.

Preparation and Assembly
- Clean the surfaces before use with Polysion industrial cleaner to remove oil, grease, and dirt.
- For passive surfaces, the metal surface can be sprayed with an activator to speed up the curing time.
- Apply the adhesive without the dispensing tip coming into direct contact with the metal surface, and close the joint.
Metals
The more active a metal is, the faster the adhesive can cure. Therefore, for passive metals, we recommend additionally using an activator. This is applied to the bonding surface beforehand.
Viscosity
Viscosity is an important factor. If the viscosity is too low, the adhesive can flow out of the application area and will therefore no longer have a securing effect. If the adhesive is too high in viscosity, it cannot completely penetrate the bonding gap. Therefore, selecting the right viscosity for the application is crucial.
Strength
When selecting the strength, it is important to know in advance whether the secured area needs to be opened regularly for maintenance and servicing. In this case, a low- to medium-strength adhesive is recommended. For permanent and final securing, the high-strength solution is advisable. High-strength bonds can only be loosened using high temperatures and great force.
