Manufacturers are gaining a competitive advantage by switching from mechanical fasteners to structural bonding.

Why structural bonding is a game-changer:

• Mechanical fasteners can’t spread the load.
• You can’t weld plastic to glass, or metal to wood, no matter how hard you try.
• Adhesives don’t rust or corrode.
• You can’t fill gaps with a handful of screws.
• Vibration is everywhere. Vibrational loosening doesn’t have to be.
• Mechanical fasteners cost more to stock.
• When was the last time you heard a structural adhesive rattling around?
• There are no pretty bolt heads.
