Adhesives, Sealants and Coatings for Railroad AssemblyMaster Bond formulates a superior line of adhesives that are:

  • Durable
  • Flexibilized and toughened
  • Resistant to vibration, impact and shock
  • Corrosion resistant
  • Thermally stable
  • Rapid curing

These characteristics make them ideal for the assembly of locomotives, passenger coaches and subway cars. Our systems include epoxies, silicones, polyurethanes, polysulfides, cyanoacrylates and UV-curing.

Typical Applications of Railroad Manufacturers Using Master Bond's Polymer Systems

Master Bond products are employed in structural bonding as well as in electronic applications. They include:

  • Panel assembly
  • Trim components
  • Engine control units
  • Brackets
  • Lighting systems

Our compounds are designed to lower weight, reduce noise, improve safety and resist harsh climatic conditions. They feature exceptional bond strength both to similar and dissimilar substrates. Specific grades offer UL94V0 flame retardancy, enhanced water resistance, improved aesthetics and user friendly application. Compounds are tailor made both for internal and external usage.
