Araldite F330 No-Mix Methacrylate Adhesive for Metal and Plastic Structural Bonding
Araldite® F 330 with Hardener Lacquer 2 is a "no-mix", room temperature curing methacrylate adhesive specifically designed for bonding metals and plastics. This two-component system features a beige main agent and pale yellow to reddish-brown hardener that cures rapidly at room temperature, delivering high shear strength and peel strength after curing.
Product Overview
The unique application method sets this adhesive system apart: the hardener can be pre-applied to one substrate like a primer by spraying or brushing. After drying (approximately 4 minutes), it forms an active coating that maintains reactivity for up to several weeks. When bonding is required, only the main agent (Araldite F330) needs to be applied to the other surface, then the parts are joined. Polymerization begins immediately upon contact.
Key Performance Features:
- Assembly time: Approximately 10 minutes
- Parts handling: Just 20 minutes after joining
- Final strength: Achieved within 2 hours
- Gap bridging: Up to 0.8 mm
- Excellent bond strength across metals and plastics

Performance Advantages
This adhesive's unique properties enhance its no-mix and fast-curing benefits. The hardener coating dries quickly, allowing bonding, transport, or storage while maintaining reactivity for weeks. This enables flexible, asynchronous operations in production processes. The cured adhesive demonstrates excellent temperature resistance with a Glass Transition Temperature (Tg) of 54°C, tensile strength of 14 MPa, and elongation at break of 3.5%, ensuring structural integrity and durability under demanding working conditions.
Application Scenarios
Araldite® F 330 with Hardener Lacquer 2 is ideal for industrial applications requiring rapid assembly and high-strength bonds:
- Automotive Manufacturing: Bonding plastic interior trim to metal car bodies
- Electronics & Electrical Appliances: Securing housings and components
- General Industrial Assembly: Structural bonding of metals and composite materials
- Transportation Sector: Joining lightweight materials in rail transit and aerospace
The no-mix characteristic is particularly suited for assembly line production, where hardener can be pre-applied to numerous parts awaiting final assembly, effectively streamlining processes and increasing capacity.
