LOCTITE® EA 9460 is a gray, 2-part, thixotropic, modified epoxy adhesive formulated for ease of use and good balance of properties. It gives very high peel strength and excellent shear strength. Its flexibility makes it useful for bonding dissimilar substrates. Recommended substrates include metals, engineering thermoplastics and thermoset laminates such as sheet molding compound (SMC).

• Non-sag slump resistance
• Smooth paste
• Easy to mix and dispense
• Extended working life
• Quick heat response
• Resistant to automotive fluids
• Impact resistant
• Fatigue resistant
• Primers not required

LOCTITE®
EA 9460™ is a thixotropic, modified,
two-component epoxy adhesive formulated for ease of use as
well for a good balance of properties. This two-part adhesive is
formulated to give very high peel strength coupled with
excellent shear strength. The flexibility of the cured adhesive
makes it useful for bonding dissimilar substrates.
Recommended substrates include metals, engineering
thermoplastics, and thermoset laminates such as sheet
molding compound (SMC) without the use of primers.

GENERAL INFORMATION

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.
For safe handling information on this product, consult the
Safety Data Sheet (SDS).

Directions for use:

Mixing:

1. When mixing by hand, combine Part A (Resin) and Part
   B (Hardener) in the correct ratio and mix thoroughly until
   the color and consistency are uniform. EPOXI-PATCH®
   Tube Kits have been designed so that squeezing EQUAL
   LENGTH BEADS of Part A & Part B will give the proper
   ratio.
2. Mixing the adhesive just prior to use is recommended.
   The temperature of the separate components prior to
   mixing is not critical, but they should be close to room
   temperature.
3. Heat buildup during and after mixing is normal. To reduce
   the likelihood of exothermic reaction or excessive heat
   buildup, mix less than 4,500 grams at a time. Mixing
   smaller amounts will minimize heat buildup.
4. When mixing using a cartidge, place cartridge in proper
   dispenser. To begin using a new cartridge, remove the
   cap and dispense a small amount of adhesive, making
   sure both parts A & B are extruding. Attach nozzle and
   dispense approximately 2.5 to 5.0 cm before applying
   onto the part to be bonded. Partially used cartridges
   should be stored with the mixing nozzle attached. To
   reuse, remove and discard the old nozzle, attach the new
   nozzle, and begin dispensing.

Applying

1. Bonding surfaces should be clean, dry, and free of
   contamination.
2. Once the adhesive is applied, the bonded parts should be
   held in contact until the part has developed handling
   strength. Fixturing can be removed at this point. Since
   the full bond strength has not yet been attained, load
   application should be small at this time.

Cure

1. Complete cure is obtained after 72 hours @ 25 °C.
   LOCTITE®
   EA 9460™ can also be fully cured with heat
   such as; 6 to 8 hours at a maximum temperature of 149
   °C.
2. After 24 hours, approximately 90% of full cure properties
   are attained at room temperature.
3. Other times and temperatures (149°C is a suggested
   maximum) can be used depending on the application.
4. Heat cures can be modified to achieve a desired degree
   of cure from handling strength to full cure

Clean up

1. It is important to clean up excess adhesive from the work
   area and application equipment before it hardens.
2. Denatured alcohol and many common industrial solvents
   are suitable for removing uncured adhesive.
