Post-Vulcanization (PV) Bonding Adhesives Contact Us

Automotive Suspension System Component Bonding

Do you want to improve performance but a traditional molding operation is not an option? With LORD adhesives you can bond large, complex parts when they can’t be conventionally molded. Depending on your application, Chemlok^® or LORD^® adhesives can be used.

Using LORD adhesives in a PV bonding process can improve performance, reduce weight and provide longer lifespan for improved product performance. For many years, PV bonding has successfully bonded cured rubber to itself or metal. This method provides greater product and mold design freedom and reduces tooling, production time and labor costs.

We work with customers to develop and supply highperformance adhesives that meet demanding specifi cations as well as solve difficult problems in automotive design. Severe temperatures, chemical attack and abrasion are just some of the challenging elements our products overcome.
