Pre-Treatment
Henkel offers a superior line of Zinc Phosphate and Iron Phosphate products to chemically transform a metallic surface into an inorganic, adhesive-bearing surface. This process promotes paint adhesion, reduces metal-to-paint reactions, and improves both corrosion resistance and overall durability.

Bonding
From motor magnets and cooktop support brackets to door handles and control panel knobs, Henkel offers a comprehensive line of metal and plastic bonding adhesives. Each has been formulated to provide reliable strength within the environment in which it is applied. Henkel’s gasketing materials form impervious barriers to prevent fluid or gas leaks. The company's potting and encapsulating compounds protect electrical components from the effects of exposure to chemicals, moisture, thermal shock, mechanical shock and vibration.

Sealing

Programs to Improve Your Business
Henkel's Chemical Systems Management helps customers reduce chemical usage and overall costs, while improving delivery systems and cutting down on paperwork. A Cost-Per-Unit (CPU) program fixes customers’ costs on everything from metal-forming to packaging. Plus, Henkel’s Teardown analysis can bring to light a host of cost-reduction initiatives in every phase of the production process.

New Products
Setting the Industry Standard
Henkel's focus on improving customer profitability has resulted in many innovations, including products that create faster cure speeds, and solutions that improve on anti-vibration and sound deadening. Reacting to environmental restrictions outlawing the use of phosphates in the manufacturing process, Henkel has developed the Bonderite line of phosphate-free products, that meet environmental standards while maintaining a safe and reliable bond.

Fasteners for the Future
Henkel can replace many traditional fasteners with versatile, reliable alternatives, which have made previously difficult or cost-prohibitive designs possible. The company's exclusive liquid threadlockers produce improved performance in virtually any application. Henkel also developed the first semi-solid chemical threadlocking products. These portable sticks deliver the same proven performance characteristics of Henkel's liquid threadlockers.
