This guide explains what design engineers need to know about selecting electrically conductive adhesives, a category of materials you can find on Gluespec. These products combine strong, reliable adhesion with electrical conductivity. They consist of a polymeric material that is filled with metal, bimetallic, or metal-coated particles.

This guide explains what design engineers need to know about selecting structural adhesives, a category of materials you can find on Gluespec. Structural adhesives withstand load-bearing forces and provide high-strength bonds, typically for the life of an assembly. They are better at distributing stress than metal fasteners and can rival welds in terms of shear strength.

This guide explains what design engineers need to know about selecting instant adhesives, a category of materials you can find on Gluespec. Instant adhesives bond quickly, but with bonds that can have up to more than two tons of holding power. Often, this strength is greater than that of the bonded materials themselves. The general advantages of these products include their ease of use and short clamping times.
