LOCTITE 495 — Cyanoacrylate Instant Adhesive
LOCTITE 495 is a transparent, colorless, low-viscosity one-component cyanoacrylate adhesive for rapid curing. The product cures with ambient moisture and is formulated as a general-purpose instant adhesive for bonding plastic, rubber, and metals. The part numbers indicate that SKU 1921068 corresponds to a 20g bottle of LOCTITE 495.
Properties and Mechanism
- Technology: cyanoacrylate (ethyl cyanoacrylate).
- Appearance: transparent, colorless to straw-colored liquid (uncured).
- One-component; no mixing required — cures with atmospheric moisture.
- Low viscosity (stated as 20–45 mPa·s at cone & plate; Brookfield 20–60 mPa·s).
- Typical fixture time on steel: approximately 5.0 seconds (stated); gap fill 0.12 mm.
Application Advice
Surfaces should be clean and degreased before application. For low-energy plastics, LOCTITE SF 770 primer can be used to improve adhesion. The product should not be mixed and should be applied to one surface before assembly; short fixture times mean that parts must be positioned accurately. Full strength cure continues after initial fixturing and can last up to 24–72 hours depending on humidity, gaps, and materials.
Typical Applications
- Bonding of various types of plastic, rubber, and metal surfaces (stated in manufacturer's technical data).
- Possibility of bonding polyolefins when LOCTITE SF 770 primer is used (stated).
