Features & Benefits
Ultra‐low viscosity
Suitable for bonding pre‐assembled parts
Ideal for close‐fitting plastic components
Description
PERMABOND 101
is a low viscosity product useful in
wicking or penetrating applications or bonding
closely fitting parts. It is fast setting and suitable for
use on plastics, rubber and metals.
Cyanoacrylate adhesives are single component
adhesives that polymerize rapidly when pressed into
a thin film between parts. The moisture adsorbed on
the surface initiates the curing of the adhesive.
Strong bonds are developed extremely fast and on a
great variety of materials. These properties make
PERMABOND cyanoacrylates the ideal adhesives for
high speed production lines.

*Handling times can be affected by temperature, humidity and
specific surfaces being bonded. Larger gaps or acidic surfaces will
also reduce cure speed but this can be overcome by the use of
Permabond C Surface Activator (CSA) or Permabond QFS 16.

“Hot strength” shear strength tests performed on mild steel. 24hr cure at
room temperature and conditioned to pull temperature for 30 minutes
before testing.
101 can withstand higher temperatures for brief periods
(such as for paint baking and wave soldering processes)
providing the joint is not unduly stressed. The minimum
temperature the cured adhesive can be exposed to is
‐55°C (‐65°F) depending on the materials being bonded.
