LOCTITE® ABLESTIK 57C
Features and Benefits
A 2-part, rigid, epoxy-based adhesive ideal for heavy duty industry applications. It’s designed to make electrical connections where hot soldering is impractical and room temperature cure is required.
For challenging, heavy-duty industry applications, e.g. lightning strike connections to provide additional electrical protection on helicopters, choose LOCTITE® ABLESTIK 57C. This electrically and thermally conductive epoxy-based adhesive is easy to use and highly thixotropic to allow manual application via spatula, even in overhead applications. It has an operating temperature of -60°C to 120°C (-76°F to 248°F) and a medium shear strength.
- Electrically conductive
- Thermally conductive: 7.2 W/mK
- Highly thixotropic to allow manual application via spatula, even in overhead applications
