Metal Adhesives
Metal Adhesives
(OP)
Hi,
We are gluing metal parts (small vales) together we are using Loctite 270, sometimes it is a thread and other times its a collar. The part are either machined or Metal injection moulded.
Has anyone else had any experiences in this and are we using the right glue? We would want one glue to do all.
Thank you
Wayne.

loctite usually has reps you can talk to about this kind of thing - just be a bit careful they're selling you what you need not just what they want to sell you i.e they may push their latest wizz bang cyanoacrylate when some 30 year old technology epoxy is a better fit...
What environment do the parts go into (temp, humidity, chemicals, light exposure...)
What geometry as CoryPad mentions, also what working time you need, what curing time & conditions you want/need, what surface prep you do/can do to your parts, what metals/coatings (some threadlock etc. work better on 'active metals' and don't work as well on passive ones)...
