Loctite 414 Super Bonder Instant Adhesive 20g

Loctite 414 Super Bonder Instant Adhesive 20g is a general-purpose, clear ethyl-based cyanoacrylate liquid instant adhesive engineered for maximum efficacy in industrial bonding. This industrial-grade adhesive permanently bonds components, preventing costly assembly failures and separation caused by operational stress or environmental factors. Whether you are securing small-sized components or medium-sized parts, this premium liquid adhesive provides a robust, leak-proof seal on all compatible materials—including difficult-to-bond plastics and rubbers.

Why Choose Loctite 414?

• Rapid Fixture Time: Achieves initial fixture within 2 to 10 seconds, accelerating assembly speeds and production throughput.
• Substrate Versatility: Engineered to deliver excellent adhesion across a diverse mix of plastics, rubbers, and metals.
• Optimized for Small Parts: The low-viscosity liquid formulation is ideal for precision bonding of small to medium-sized components.
• Solvent-Free Formulation: Provides an environmentally efficient, 100% reactive adhesive layer that cures completely without solvent evaporation.
• Reliable Moisture Curing: Initiates curing rapidly at room temperature via atmospheric humidity when confined between tightly fitting surfaces.

Technical Specifications

Simple Application Instructions

1. Clean: For optimal results, ensure all bond surfaces are completely clean and free from grease. Excess adhesive can be dissolved with Loctite cleanup solvents, nitromethane, or acetone.
2. Apply: Apply several drops of the liquid instant adhesive to the bond area. This product performs best in thin bond gaps around 0.05 mm (larger gaps will significantly decrease the rate of cure).
3. Assemble: Assemble and tightly press the parts together immediately. The formula will begin curing rapidly once confined between the two surfaces by reacting with atmospheric moisture. Full chemical and solvent resistance will develop over a 24-hour cure period.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is Loctite 414 used for?

Loctite 414 is a general-purpose instant adhesive designed for high-strength bonding applications. It is specifically formulated to prevent small to medium-sized parts from separating or shifting due to everyday wear and physical stress factors.

Can Loctite 414 be disassembled?

Yes. While it forms a rigid, high-strength permanent bond, cured Loctite 414 can be dissolved or softened using specialized chemical agents such as nitromethane, acetone, or dedicated Loctite cleanup solvents applied directly to the bond line.

Does Loctite 414 work on plastics and rubber?

Yes. Loctite 414 offers robust performance across a very wide range of substrates. It is highly effective on plastics and rubbers as well as standard metal surfaces.

Is Loctite 414 safe for oxygen or chemical systems?

No. Loctite 414 is not recommended for use in pure oxygen and/or oxygen-rich environments, and it should never be selected as a sealant for chlorine or other strong oxidizing materials. Always refer to the product Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for safe handling procedures.
