* For the maximum continuous operating temperature, we consider the maximum temperature for which the residual lap shear strength is 1/3 of the lap shear strength at room temperature or the temperature for which the residual lap shear strength is 5 MPa.
Bonding a carbon bicycle frame and polyamide connection parts.
The manufacturer had designed a very original and lightweight frame that needed to be bonded to resist with high stress. With no stiffness reduction up to 70°C, the ARALDITE® 2019 adhesive was the right fit for this job.
To ensure a reliable solution, the customer utilized our testing and simulation services in the development of the frame. The result was a faster time to market with a superior, high-performance product.
