Fast, reliable bonding
ONSERT® allows the adhesive bonding of various fasteners to a wide range of materials.
We, as a specialist in fastening technology, and DELO, the expert in adhesive technology, have together developed a new fastening system: ONSERT® technology – for the fast and reliable bonding of fasteners.
Method / principle
The advantages of adhesive technology and of detachable threaded connections are combined. Fasteners made of transparent plastic, with or without metal thread reinforcement, are affixed using light-curing adhesive. Key features include reliable hardening of the adhesives in short cycle times and the free geometrical design of the fasteners.
Applications
The innovative joining technique is ideal for use in a wide variety of sectors – wherever fasteners are to be attached to non-weldable materials, for example in the aerospace industry, e.g. for lightweight structures, or in the automotive industry for the mounting of cover panels.
Product benefits
- Full mechanical load capacity immediately after irradiation
- Short curing times (< 4 seconds)
- Fastening elements cannot be seen in plastics or thin-walled components (design)
- Flexible use, even after surface treatments (painting/cathodic electrodeposition coating)
