The Visiport and Discair product lines have been offered with 3M VHB adhesives as standard since their inception. 3M VHB (very high bond) adhesives have a number of advantages that have made it a good choice for most installations:
1. Excellent bonding to clean glass and polycarbonate window substrates.
2. Conformance to surfaces nearly 1-mm out of flatness.
3. High resistance to water soluble coolants at correct pH.
4. Excellent vibration resistance characteristics.
There are applications, however, for which users have expressed a desire for bonding and application alternatives. Two options that are currently in early introduction include bonding of Visiport VP220.B5 models with two-component adhesives together with VHB, and a bolt-on style unit for use with polycarbonate. If your application may require the use of non-standard mounting methods, please contact us for details on the VP220.B5.E and VP220.B5.D configuration codes.
