Breaking The Sound Barrier Calls For Sound Adhesives, Which Don't Break!

When the Thrust SSC project needed assistance with bonding the metal and composite structure of the land speed record attempt vehicle, the team turned to PERMABOND for advice and assistance.

PERMABOND’S wide range of products has been designed to meet the demanding needs of all aspects of industry, but even PERMABOND was a little surprised by a request to help build a 850mph car!

Building on experience from transport, aviation and military applications, PERMABOND was able to advise the team on all aspects of joining technology. From the design of the components to be bonded, to the correct adhesive for each application.

PERMABOND has developed a complete range of high performance products, designed to secure everything from bearings into housings, to the roof onto a passenger bus.

PERMABOND are also specialists in the field of designing adhesives for particular customer requirements. This ensures that the adhesive is matched precisely to the customer’s needs and that production line speed can be maximised with suitable application and assembly equipment. The experience with the Thrust SSC programme has led PERMABOND to develop new adhesives to meet the increasingly demanding needs of today’s industry.
