What are Aerospace Adhesives?
Aerospace adhesives are specialized bonding agents used in the construction, assembly and maintenance of aircraft, spacecraft, satellites and related components. These adhesives play a crucial role in the aerospace industry, where materials must meet stringent performance requirements due to the extreme conditions experienced during flight, such as high stress, vibration, temperature fluctuations and exposure to various chemicals.
Along with OEM aerospace manufacturers and MRO specialists, aircraft adhesives are useful for military, public transport, marine, automotive and power generation applications. Different private and federal standards exist for aerospace adhesive performance such as Mil-Spec and SAE. When choosing an adhesive, you must consider the substrates in the adhesive, the type of bonding it needs to do and the certification standards it must meet or exceed.
