LOCTITE® Instant Adhesives are one-part, room-temperature-curing adhesives available in a wide range of viscosities. They are mostly used to create high-performance bonds with numerous materials in a few seconds: rubber, polystyrene, wood, metal, even the latest generation of plastics.

The use of instant adhesives

Instant adhesives (also known as cyanoacrylates) are easy to work with, both on automated assembly lines and in the workshop. They cure at room temperature, are mostly one-component and are available in different viscosities for your special requirements. Henkel has an extensive range of dispensing systems for instant adhesives and also manufactures devices that are specially tailored to the customer's requirements.
