For a fast and solid connection of metals, Lubribond Benelux has an extensive range of high-quality metal adhesives available. In this article, we explain the application possibilities and the advantages of bonding steel, stainless steel and aluminium (to each other or with other materials) compared to, for example, soldering, welding, riveting or bolt-nut connections.
Minimal impact on the material to be bonded
Let’s start with the biggest advantage of metal adhesives. In contrast to welding or soldering, the material is not heated. This prevents deformation (warping) and discolouration. The various types of industrial metal adhesives from the Lubribond range also make it possible to bond steel, stainless steel or aluminium with other types of materials. Think, for example, of plastics or composites. Thicker and thinner materials in different shapes can also be bonded together in a sustainable way. These wide range of applications and advantages ensure that professionals in production companies, mechanical engineering, installation technology, construction and the automotive industry frequently use metal adhesives.
Metal bonding without special training or expensive equipment
Another reason why metal bonding is increasingly being chosen is the shortage of experienced welders and pipe fitters. Welding and soldering requires not only craftsmanship but also a considerable investment in professional equipment. In short, this is a lot less interesting for many specialists from a cost and organizational point of view than choosing adhesive connections. Especially if you have the guarantee that you can make a very strong connection with the adhesives you buy from Lubribond, without special training and expensive investment,
