Description

LOCTITE® 495 is a transparent, low-viscosity, general-purpose ethyl cyanoacrylate instant adhesive formulated for rapid bonding across metals, plastics, and rubbers. Unlike specialized plastic or rubber formulas, it acts as a versatile all-rounder for everyday industrial maintenance and quick repairs.

Application

LOCTITE® 495 is used for general-purpose industrial assembly, maintenance, and quick repairs across metals, plastics, and rubbers. Its balanced formulation makes it ideal when you need a single adhesive to join different types of materials together.

Common Practical Applications

• Mixed-Material Assemblies. Bonding metal parts to plastic housings or rubber components (such as attaching rubber feet or bumpers onto steel or aluminum enclosures).
• Industrial Maintenance & Repair (MRO). Fixing cracked rigid plastic brackets, broken machine covers, and small mechanical fixtures on the factory floor.
• Automotive & Appliance Repairs. Reattaching interior plastic trim, weatherstripping, rubber gaskets, and small non-structural metal or plastic clips.
• Electronics & Cable Management. Securing wire strain reliefs, tacking down loose cables, and bonding small ABS or polycarbonate casings.
• Porous & Wood Substrates. Joining wood, paper, leather, and cork in light manufacturing or craft assemblies where a fast fixture is needed.

Compatible Substrates

• Metals. Grit-blasted mild steel, aluminum, zinc dichromate, and stainless steel.
• Plastics. ABS, rigid PVC, polycarbonate, acrylic, and phenolic (plus polypropylene, polyethylene, and PTFE when pre-treated with LOCTITE® SF 770 Primer).
• Rubbers & Elastomers. Nitrile, neoprene, EPDM, and natural rubber.

Direction to Use

1. Clean and dry the surfaces. Wipe both parts with isopropyl alcohol or a degreaser like LOCTITE® SF 7063 to remove oil, grease, and dust. Allow the surfaces to dry completely. 2. Prime difficult plastics (if needed). For slick plastics like polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), or PTFE, apply a thin coat of LOCTITE® SF 770 Primer. Let the primer evaporate completely before applying glue. 3. Apply an activator (optional). To speed up curing on larger gaps or inactive surfaces, apply a LOCTITE® Activator to one surface only and let it dry. Never apply activator directly on top of a primed surface. 4. Apply the adhesive sparingly. Place one or two small drops of LOCTITE 495 on one surface only (opposite the activated side, if used). Do not spread the glue with tissues, cotton swabs, or brushes. 5. Align and press. Join the parts immediately and hold them firmly together for 5 to 20 seconds until the bond sets. 6. Allow full cure. Leave the assembly undisturbed for 24 hours to reach full structural strength (up to 72 hours for maximum strength on certain metals)
