Application Examples for Stress-Free Bonding and Sealing
In today's industry, the reliable bonding and sealing of components is essential, particularly in sectors such as vehicle manufacturing, body construction, and container construction. Here are some specific application examples that highlight the versatility of stress-free bonding and sealing:
1. Vehicle and Body Construction
In vehicle construction, stress-free bonding plays a crucial role in joining body parts. By using suitable adhesives, connections can be created that are not only strong but also vibration-resistant and corrosion-resistant. This increases the lifespan of vehicles and improves safety.
2. Container Construction
Containers used for transporting goods require reliable seals to prevent the ingress of water and other environmental influences. Stress-free bonding techniques ensure that the seals remain intact even in sub-zero temperatures, guaranteeing the integrity of the container.
3. Metal and Ventilation Construction
In applications subject to constant expansion and contraction, such as in metal and ventilation construction, special sealants are required. These ensure that joints and connections remain sealed despite thermal expansion or vibrations. A clean and durable seal prevents leaks and contributes to the energy efficiency of the systems.
4. Sealing of Stainless Steel Basins and Troughs
Stainless steel basins and troughs are frequently used in the food industry. Here, an absolutely hygienic and stable seal is essential to prevent the accumulation of dirt and bacteria. Stress-free bonding provides the necessary flexibility and durability to meet the stringent requirements for cleanliness and hygiene.
5. Anodized Aluminum
Anodized aluminum is frequently used in building and facade elements. To create an effective bond or seal surfaces, special adhesives must be used that adhere to such coated materials. Stress-free bonding and sealing methods guarantee optimal results without damaging the surface.
6. Painted Surfaces and Powder-Coated Aluminum
Bonding to painted surfaces or powder-coated aluminum requires careful selection of the adhesive. Stress-free systems can help preserve the surface's aesthetics while ensuring a strong bond.
7. Galvanized Steel Sheets
Galvanized steel sheets are frequently used in roofing. Sealing and bonding these sheets is essential to prevent corrosion from weathering. Stress-free sealing systems provide a long-lasting solution that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing.
8. Roof Flashings and Coverings
Roof flashings and end caps must be resistant to weathering and mechanical stress. Stress-free bonding methods ensure a tight and flexible connection, minimizing the risk of leaks.
