Bostik Born2Bond RA-41 Retaining Adhesive – 50 ml Bottle

Bostik Born2BondTM Retaining anaerobic adhesives are a cost effective, adaptable alternative or addition to mechanical retaining processes. Capable of bonding all types of cylindrical assemblies, these single-component solutions also seal all metal joints to eliminate the risk of fretting corrosion. They achieve 100% surface-to-surface contact, producing a cohesive, durable connection capable of withstanding vibration, extreme temperatures and chemical substances. RA-03 is a low viscosity, high strength anaerobic adhesive designed to retain cylindrical parts. Once cured the product prevents leakage and/or loosening of parts from vibration and shock. This product is acceptable as a retaining compound in and around food processing areas according to NSF S5 (Registration No.163875). KEY FEATURES High strength Low viscosity High power transmission Resistance to dynamic loads Vibration resistant Recommended for gaps up to 0.15mm Corrosion prevention Single component DIRECTIONS FOR USE 1. For best results, clean all surfaces (internal and external) with Born2BondTM Pre-Bonding Cleaner and wait until fully evaporated. 2. If the cure speed is too slow on inactive metals, use Born2BondTM Anaerobic Activator. 3. For slip fitted parts, apply the adhesive around the pin and the inside of the collar and rotate during assembly to ensure fully coverage. 4. For press fitted parts, apply adhesive fully to both surfaces and assemble at high pressure. 5. For shrink fitted parts, the adhesive should be on the pin, the collar should be heated. 6. Parts should be fixed until sufficient handling strength is achieved. METHOD OF USE Manual: Directly from the bottle with or without dispensing tips for more precise dispensing. Semi-Automated: Use of pressure-time systems for accurate volume and larger series. Full-Automated: fully automated robot or application lines APPLICATIONS Gear manufacturing Machine engineering Bearing assembly Drive shafts STORAGE/SHELF LIFE Store product in the unopened container in a dry area out of direct sunlight. Storage below 7°C or greater than 28°C can adversely affect product performance. If stored properly, this product has a shelf life of 24 months. HEALTH/SAFETY The Safety Data Sheet is available on the Bostik website and should be consulted for proper handling, cleanup and spill containment before use. Keep containers covered to minimize contamination. LIMITATIONS This product is not recommended for use in pure oxygen and/or oxygen-rich systems and should not be selected as a sealant for chlorine or other strong oxidizing materials. Material removed from containers may be contaminated during use. Do not return product to the original container. Bostik will not assume responsibility for product that has been contaminated or stored under conditions other than those previously indicated. If additional information is required, please contact your local Technical Service Center or customer service representative. MRO Solutions Guide TDS
