Loctite 398456 Clear 83082 608 Hysol High Strength Epoxy Adhesive, 2.8 oz Kit

I have used a product made by the same co. for many years. I used it to repair a broken water dispenser on my fridge. the part although small lists for over $100 and is hard to get. I used this two-part epoxy and the dispenser has been working great for two weeks.

I have used this adhesive for 25 years at work and home. It will bond almost anything and is great to repair damaged plastics in automotive needs.

Hysol 608 is a real 5-min epoxy. It will start setting up as the 5 minute mark approaches. It appears to form high-strength, reliable bonds. Unfortunately, I purchased this to repair lifted copper pads on PCBs. In this application, I could not get small amounts of Hysol 608 to maintain bonding up to my preferred soldering temp (260c). If you can work at lower temps, it *may* suffice. I will update my review if I find an effective soldering temp for working with Hysol 608 repaired circuits.

I am looking for something that will form a chemical bond with polypropylene plastics. This adheres good. But it's not up to my expectations.

Excellent epoxy, quick set, dries to a relatively clear to slightly opaque plastic with a little flexibility.

I work in a R & D development lab for a Fortune 50 company, and we use 608 for almost everything. Setting thermocouples in place, creating jigs, and repairing objects. The 5 minute set time is of great benefit for these tasks. 608 is also strong. I'm not sure why there are any 1 star reviews. Perhaps these people don't know where 608 should be used or how to use it.

Very strong stuff. I will use it again.

Henkle customer service was horrible. I tried on 2 different occaisions to resolve an issue with this product.The resin side (black cap) went hard in the tube on a half used tube, and when I found that I opened my second set and the resin side was hard in the unopened sealed tube. Material has a year left on shelf life and has been stored and used properly. I've used the products for years without issue. Henkel should replace the bad product. Customer service sent me back and forth from consumer to industrial division. Gad zooks.....
