Cilbond® 10E is a solvent-based adhesive that functions as a general-purpose primer for rubber-to-metal bonding. It also serves as a one-coat bonding system designed for NBR-to-metal bonding applications. The adhesive enhances the adhesion between rubber and metal substrates, improving the overall bond strength and durability. Cilbond® 10E finds application in various industries where NBR rubber is bonded to metal, such as in the production of seals and rollers.
