LORD Versilok® 253LGB/254 adhesive is a two-component, epoxy-modified acrylic adhesive used to bond a variety of automotive sheet metals, including hot-dip galvanized, electro-galvanized, bare aluminum, and cold rolled steel. Versilok 253LGB/254 adhesive can be either room temperature cured or heat cured for faster processing. Glass beads are included in the adhesive system providing a mechanical lock between substrates. For customized dispensing, Versilok 253LGB/254 adhesive contains a lower level of glass beads compared to other Versilok adhesives. Versilok 253LGB/254 adhesive is approved by Mercedes-Benz AG. Features: utilizes non-sagging rheology; replaces the need for spot welding which degrades metal and allows rusting to occur. contains glass beads which provide a mechanical lock that will prevent shifting of substrate panels. develops a high strength bond in less than one hour at room temperature, eliminating metal warpage caused by high curing induction temperatures and allowing assemblies to be handled prior to the E-coat prime or bake process. bonds exceptionally well through the various stamping lubricants typically present on metals, eliminating the need for advance cleaning and surface preparation. provides excellent resistance to moisture, sunlight, salt spray and thermal cycling; sustains short exposure to postbakes up to 204°C (400°F).
