Loxeal Istant 25 Super Glue Medium Viscosity Cyanoacrylate Adhesive 20g
Loxeal Istant 25 is a medium-to-high viscosity super glue based on ethyl cyanoacrylate, designed for bonding plastic, rubber, metal and ceramic – including slightly irregular surfaces where a runny glue would simply drain away. At 350–450 mPa·s it stays where you put it, fills gaps up to 150 microns and fixtures in seconds, with a medium setting speed that gives you a moment to position parts. Supplied in a 20g bottle.
Why choose Loxeal Istant 25?
-
Medium viscosity – controllable application that stays put on the joint
-
Handles imperfect surfaces – fills gaps of 10–150 microns
-
Broad substrate range – plastic, rubber, metal and ceramic with one product
-
Fast, strong fixture – tensile strength of 15–23 N/mm² when cured
-
Solvent-free, single part – clean, clear bond line with no mixing
Typical applications
- Repairs on ceramics, ornaments and household items
- Bonding rubber and plastic parts with less-than-perfect mating surfaces
- Metal-to-plastic and metal-to-rubber assemblies
- General workshop, trade and hobby bonding
How to use
- Clean and degrease both surfaces and allow them to dry fully.
- Apply a modest bead or drops to one surface only.
- Assemble the parts promptly, align, and hold with light pressure for a few seconds.
- Leave the joint undisturbed while strength develops; avoid heavy loads until fully cured.
Cure times
Fixture speed depends on the substrate, gap, temperature and humidity. Typical fixture times: neoprene/NBR under 5 seconds; PVC 3–10 seconds; aluminium 5–15 seconds; phenolic resin 5–20 seconds; steel 10–30 seconds; ABS 10–30 seconds; zinc 30–90 seconds. Allow up to 24 hours for full strength. For polyethylene, polypropylene, silicone rubber or PTFE, prime first with Loxeal Primer 7; Loxeal Activator 9 can be used to speed up slow joints.
