At HITEK we supply a wide range of different categorised materials that are fit for the purpose of #protectingyourelectronics. Today’s focus is on our EMI Shielding Range. This range is perfect for anyone who is seeking to protect their electronics.
Materials that can be found within the EMI Shielding Range are:
Todays #ProductSpotlight focuses in on @Permabons product Permabond TA4610 (50ml)!
Permabond TA4610 (50ml) is a 2-part, 1:1 toughened acrylic adhesive. It has been developed to bond low surface energy plastics such as polypropylene and polyethylene, with no primer or surface treatment required. It can also be used to bond a wide variety of other materials such as metals and composite materials and is ideal for bonding dissimilar surfaces. Permabond TA4610 is easy to apply and has a fast cure at room temperature.
Please note that 50ml cartridges require a manual dispensing gun (sold separately).
Features and Benefits: • Adhesion to a wide variety of substrates • Full cure at room temperature • Bonds polyolefins • No primer required • Good impact strength • Good chemical resistance
At HITEK we are all about supporting a customer through any issues they face regarding the parts/products that we offer. Our websites live chat feature is one of many ways that we can answer queries with a prompt response. No matter the question we are always happy to help, with a team of dedicated staff, a quick response is guaranteed through live chat.
Be sure to send an enquiry message through and we will get back to you as soon as possible with the correct information!
To end #HenkelWeek24, we are highlighting our #HenkelBestSeller – Ablestik 45W1/Catalyst 15 (Twin Pack)!
LOCTITE ABLESTIK 45 W1 is designed as a general purpose, adhesive and is particularly useful when bonding dissimilar substrates such as metal to plastic. It is designed for use where shock and peel resistance are desired. This product is recommended to be used with Catalyst 15.
Introducing Bergquist Gap Pad TGP 40000SF and Bergquist Gap Pad TGP 18000SF, the two newest silicone free gap pads from Henkel. These fantastic thermally conductive fillers excel with heat transfer thanks to their z-axis orientation which allows for heat to transfer effectively from component to heat spreader.
Due to the no-cure system these products have, it makes it simple to pick and place them allowing for them to be reworkable. On top of this, due to their non-silicone polymer binder there is very low amount of bleed/ outgas from these Gap Pads. With their elastomeric properties, both the 40000SF and 18000SF have a high temp reliability for a non-silicone gap pad.

For the last #ProductSpotlight of #HenkelWeek24 we are focusing on BERGQUIST GAP PAD TGP 2400!
BERGQUIST GAP PAD TGP 2400 is a thermally conductive gap pad reinforced for easy handling and versatility. Providing a conductivity of 2.4 W/m-K, it efficiently transfers heat away from electronic components. The soft, elastic material conforms well to uneven surfaces, ensuring optimal thermal performance. This reinforced pad offers improved tear resistance, electrical isolation, and easier conversion for various applications. Well-suited for low-pressure applications, GAP PAD TGP 2400 comes with natural tack on both sides for simple assembly. Alternatively, a non-tack version is available for specific needs.
• Thermal Conductivity: 2.0 W/m-K • Low S-Class thermal resistance at very low pressures • Highly Conformable, low hardness • Designed for low-stress applications • Fiberglass reinforced for puncture, shear and tear resistance • Part Number – GP2500S20-0.160-02-0816
Our second #ProductSpotlight of #HenkelWeek24 is Ablestik 45 Clear/Catalyst 15 Clear (Twin Pack)
LOCTITE ABLESTIK 45 CLEAR is an unfilled epoxy adhesive which, by using catalyst 15 clear, can adjust the hardness from flexible to rigid. It has an easy mix ratio and bonds well to a wide variety of substrates. LOCTITE ABLESTIK 45 CLEAR is an unfilled, clear version of ABLESTIK 45
