2 products
Retaining compounds fill the space between unthreaded metal parts to hold them in place and dampen vibration. They are anaerobic, which means they remain fluid until they fill the empty space between metal surfaces and then cure in the absence of air, allowing them to seep into small crevices before bonding. Retaining compounds help reduce friction between tight fitting parts to evenly distribute load, reduce wear, and prevent the production of small particles caused by abrasion. They are often used in automotive or heavy machinery applications to hold bearings inside their housing or mount gears and pulleys onto shafts.
Shear Strength
Extended Working Time Retaining Compounds
The extended working time of these retaining compounds allows for more adjustments and precise positioning of parts. They cure at a slow rate and are useful for bonding machined cylindrical components with large diameters.
