We produce high-strength epoxide glues in two basic variants, i.e. foil epoxy adhesives or liquid epoxy adhesives. A great advantage of foil epoxide glues consists of their easy application (they can be formatted as fabrics, for example) and no dangerous evaporations harmful to operators, produced at manipulating with or applying them.
The glues LETOXIT® KFL (foil one) and LETOXIT® PL (liquid one) are commonly used in gluing metallic structures and parts (mainly of aluminium or stainless steel) involving high demands placed on strength of joints, thermal resistance and long-term stability. These glues are principally suitable for applications in the automotive or aerospace industries.
Epoxy foil adhesives
Product range LETOXIT® KFL covers epoxy foil adhesives with different characteristics suitable mainly for bonding of aluminium sandwich constructions including honeycomb structures. Application of film epoxy adhesives guaranties equal distribution and optimum thickness of adhesive layer.
The adhesive is one-component, based on modified epoxy resins, and contains suitable curing system. We are producing foil in thickness 0,25 – 0,3 mm on 250 mm or 1000 mm width rolls. Bonded joints exhibit very good mechanical properties when loaded under temperatures ranging from –75°C to +100°C. During working with adhesive or curing adhesive doesn´t release any hazard vapours.
ADVANTAGES
- Excellent mechanical properties (can be used in primary constructions of airplanes)
- High shear and tensile strength
- High toughness
- Foil adhesives do not irritate human skin and do not contain solvents
- Foil adhesives guarantee an even layer of adhesive on the entire bonded area
APPLICATION
- Aviation
- Car industry
- Mechanical engineering
- Space industry
- Sport equipment

Epoxy paste adhesives
Two-component, high-strength, paste epoxy-based adhesive curing at room temperature. It is designed to adhesive bond a variety of metallic materials, honeycombs, fiber-reinforced composites, wood, rubber and glass. Such materials can be even combined and bonded to one another. Bonded joints exhibit very good mechanical properties at temperatures ranging from –75°C to +80°C. The adhesive contains a corrosion inhibitor.
ADVANTAGES
- curing at room temperature
- high shear and peel strengths, high toughness
- high chemical resistance
- contains corrosion ihnibito and spacer filler
- suitable for gluing of metals, composites, stone, wood
APPLICATION
- Aviation
- Car industry
- Mechanical engineering
- Space industry
- Electro industry
