Case Study: Creating reliable, corrosion-free bonds with LORD® 406 acrylic adhesive
A manufacturer of utility vehicles — boom trucks for industrial buyers — determined that the welding process used for bonding two cold-rolled steel parts in wheel wells was not up to its standards. Not only was it time-consuming to weld the parts together, the weld spots showed signs of corrosion as the trucks aged. The company decided to seek out alternatives to welding, in the hopes of both smoothing its assembly line processes and improving the quality of its vehicles.
