LC-E220
250 Degree Curing Epoxy Film Adhesive

Description

LC-E220 is a 250⁰F (121⁰C) epoxy film adhesive specifically designed for bonding metal to metal or metal to various core materials.

Advantages

LC-E220 demonstrates excellent adhesion and toughness throughout various cure cycles using both press and vacuum bag curing. LC-E220 exhibits excellent resistant’s to humidity as well as a variety of test fluids. LC-E220 can also be supplied both supported and unsupported in multiple weight and thicknesses.
