Almost every industrial application requires Adhesives for joining two components together in order to improve their mechanical strength. Adhesives are the best alternatives to screws, rivets, and welding. There are many advantages associated with the use of Adhesives which make them desirable to be used in various industries. The joining technique of the Adhesives and their strength is unquestionable. Now, here are some of the advantages of fixing joints with Adhesives.
Increased product performance - The components joined by the Adhesives are really strong and long lasting. Many Adhesives are resistant to harsh temperature which makes them long lasting even in unfavorable situations. By joining two components with Adhesives, they become stronger.
Reduced assembly costs aEUR" The components joined by the Adhesives are less likely to be damaged and affected. It reduces the extra costs incurred by the damage of components in other methods of joining such as welding and bolting. Even the extra cost that goes in for the screws or rivets is reduced.
Less finishing required - The cost involved in the finishing of adhesive-joined components is quite less. Adhesives are very easy to use and do not incur any extra costs in the tools required for bolting and welding. After drying up, they are totally invisible without any sign of Adhesives which provide a better finishing to the products.
Greater design freedom aEUR" With the help of Adhesives, components can be joined in whichever way one wants. The flexibility that Adhesives offer to join differently shaped components is not found in other methods of joining. It can be used to join extremely small components as well as big parts.
First of all, one has to understand that glue is not just used for binding paper, but also for binding materials like plastic, rubber, cloth, etc. Apart from the commonly used kinds like Book Binding Adhesives, Scrapbook Adhesives, etc., there are many other types which are used even in industrial applications.
