LOCTITE® EA 3479 is a 2 part industrial adhesive containing aluminum-filled epoxy to fix worn or damaged machinery. It cures to a metal-like finish that does not rust and fills gaps up to 1.0 mm.
LOCTITE® EA 3479 is a rust-resistant aluminum-filled bonder with excellent physical properties and functional benefits. It provides resistance to shrinkage, rust, sagging, and chemicals. LOCTITE® EA 3479 is recommended for leveling machinery, making core molds, filling cavities, repairing cast-steel plates and sacrificial coatings, repairing metal parts, and sealing pipes with gap-filling capabilities up to 1.0 mm. As a two-component epoxy, it should be mixed in a 1:1 ratio with a room-temperature cure.
