Full details

The Loctite All Plastics Glue 2G + Activator Pen (12 Pack) is designed for DIY enthusiasts and professionals who need to repair difficult-to-bond plastics and other materials reliably. Its key benefit is the dual-action system that primes and bonds challenging surfaces for a strong, long-lasting bond where standard glues fail. A potential caveat is that the small 2g glue volume per unit may require multiple applications for larger repairs.

FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the activator pen?

The activator pen primes difficult-to-bond plastics, such as PE, PP, and PTFE, allowing the cyanoacrylate glue to form a strong and durable bond where standard glues would fail.

How long does it take for the glue to set?

The adhesive sets in seconds, but it's recommended to allow at least 1 hour for the bond to cure fully before putting stress on the repaired item.

Can I use this glue on fabric or paper?

No, this adhesive is not recommended for use on fabric or paper. It is designed for plastics, metal, rubber, and wood.

What is the shelf life of the product?

Unopened, the glue should remain effective for at least 1-2 years when stored in a cool, dry place. Once opened, ensure the cap is sealed tightly to maintain performance.

How should I clean up uncured glue?

Wipe away any uncured adhesive immediately with a dry cloth. For cured adhesive, it may be difficult to remove, but try soaking in warm, soapy water or using a solvent like acetone carefully.

Is this glue suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, the glue offers resistance to water, chemicals, and freezing conditions, making it suitable for dependable indoor and outdoor performance.

What if I get the glue on my skin?

Do not force bonded skin apart. Soak the area in warm, soapy water and gently peel or roll the skin. Acetone-based nail polish remover can also help soften the bond. If irritation persists, seek medical advice.

Troubleshooting

Glue is not bonding or is weak.

Ensure both surfaces were treated with the activator and allowed to dry before applying glue. Check if the plastic is one of the compatible types. Ensure surfaces were clean and dry.

Activator pen seems dry.

Ensure the cap was sealed tightly. If it's still dry after a few uses, the pen may need replacement.

Adhesive bonds to fingers or skin.

Do not pull skin apart. Soak the bonded area in warm, soapy water. Gently peel or roll the skin apart. If needed, use a nail polish remover (containing acetone) to help soften the bond. Seek medical attention if necessary.

Glue appears to have dried out in the bottle.

Ensure the bottle cap is tightly sealed after each use. If the glue is hardened, it may be time to use a new unit.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Effectively bonds challenging plastics like PE, PP, and PTFE.
  • Fast-setting formula minimizes downtime and clamping needs.
  • Durable bond resistant to moisture, chemicals, and temperature fluctuations.
  • Clear finish provides aesthetically pleasing, invisible repairs.
  • Comes in a convenient 12-pack for multiple repair needs.

Cons

  • Small glue volume (2g) per unit may be insufficient for very large repairs.
  • Activator pen requires careful storage to prevent drying out.
  • Cyanoacrylate glue can bond skin quickly, requiring caution during use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the surfaces to be bonded are clean, dry, and free from dust or grease.
  2. Twist the cap off the activator pen and apply a thin, even layer of activator to BOTH surfaces to be bonded.
  3. Allow the activator to air dry for approximately 30-60 seconds.
  4. Carefully apply a small amount of the cyanoacrylate glue to ONE of the surfaces.
  5. Immediately press the two surfaces together firmly and hold for the recommended setting time (typically 15-60 seconds).
  6. Allow the bond to cure fully for at least 1 hour before subjecting the repaired item to stress.

Compatibility:

This adhesive is compatible with most plastics including PE, PP, PTFE, as well as metal, rubber, wood, and leather. It is *not* recommended for bonding Styrofoam (polystyrene) or expanded polystyrene, nor should it be used on fabrics or paper.

Care:

  • Store the glue and activator in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat.
  • Keep the pen cap tightly sealed when not in use to prevent the activator from drying out.
  • Clean up any excess uncured adhesive immediately with a dry cloth. Cured adhesive may be difficult to remove.
