Loctite EA E-40EXP Chemical Resistant Epoxy

Loctite E-40EXP Glue Chemical Resistant Epoxy Overview

Loctite EA E-40EXP is a high-performance, chemical-resistant adhesive designed for potting, sealing, and bonding electronic and electrical components. With a 2:1 mix ratio, this self-leveling epoxy ensures easy application by flowing into horizontal voids to provide complete coverage and isolation of sensitive electrical components. Once mixed, this chemical-resistant glue cures at room temperature, delivering a robust seal that protects against hazardous vapors and chemicals. Tested to meet UL 1203 standards for explosion-proof motors, Loctite 1511653 is ideal for potting electric motors in classified environments. Its minimal exothermic reaction and low shrinkage make it ideal for critical applications that require precision and durability.
