Application
Bonding
LOCTITE
®
324™ is used to bond flat parts together. Especially
suitable for joining dissimilar materials, e.g. ferrite to plated
materials in electric motors, loudspeakers, etc. This product is
specifically formulated for toughness and impact strength.
LOCTITE
®
324™ cures when confined between close fitting
parts with the aid of an activator.

TYPICAL CURING PERFORMANCE
Cure Speed vs. Substrate
The rate of cure will depend on the substrate used. The graph
below shows the shear strength developed with time on grit
blasted steel lap shears compared to different materials and
tested according to ISO 4587. (Activator 7075™ applied to
one surface)

Cure Speed vs. Bond Gap
The rate of cure will depend on the bondline gap. The following
graph shows the shear strength developed with time on grit
blasted steel lap shears at different controlled gaps and tested
according to ISO 4587. (Activator 7075™ applied to one
surface)
