PERMABOND® TA437
PERMABOND® TA437 is a single component structural acrylic adhesive designed primarily for bonding metals, ferrites and ceramics. The typical fixture time of TA437 when used with Initiator 41 is 20-30 seconds. The fast fixture time of TA437 makes it an ideal adhesive for high speed production lines. When the use of the activator is not desirable, the material will cure anaerobically in a close-fitting joint / in presence of metal, the fixture time will be 5-10 minutes. This product provides high strength, tough, durable bonds with good impact resistance.

- Use Direction
Surfaces must be clean, dry and grease-free. Apply Initiator 41 to one surface (if using initiator to reduce cure time).; Apply adhesive to the other surface.; Assemble the components using sufficient force to spread the adhesive thinly. Parts should be bonded immediately and within a maximum of two hours of applying the Initiator.; Maintain pressure until handling strength is achieved. The time required will vary according to the joint design, gap and surfaces being bonded.; Allow 24 hours for adhesive to fully cure. Accelerated cure times may be achieved by heating.
- Benefits and Features
- Adhesion to a wide variety of substrates
- Fast cure at room temperature
- No mix application
- High shear and peel strength
- Good impact strength
- High temperature resistance
- Surface Preparation
Surfaces should be clean, dry and grease-free before applying the adhesive. Permabond Cleaner A is recommended for the degreasing of most surfaces. Some metals such as aluminum, copper and its alloys will benefit from light abrasion with emery cloth (or similar), to remove the oxide layer.
- Additional Information
This product is not recommended for use in contact with strong oxidizing materials. This product may affect some thermoplastics and users must check compatibility of the product with such substrates. Information regarding the safe handling of this material may be obtained from the Safety Data Sheet. Users are reminded that all materials, whether innocuous or not, should be handled in accordance with the principles of good industrial hygiene.
- Environmental Resistance
All values were generated on as received steel lap shears as described in ISO4587. Adhesive was cured at room temperature for 48 hours prior to environmental exposure. Test pieces were assembled with no induced gap and subjected to continuous exposure for 1000 hours at the testing temperature and then the shear strength was tested at room temperature.
- Typical Performance
5-10 mins (no initiator) 20-30 secs (with Initiator 41); 15-20 mins (no initiator) 1-3 mins (with Initiator 41); 60-120 mins (no initiator) 30-60 mins (with Initiator 41)
