SCIGRIP, a global supplier of smarter adhesive solutions, will be highlighting the crucial role high strength bonding systems play within the rail sector at the forthcoming Railway Interiors Expo in Prague, November 4-5.
SCIGRIP is an established European manufacturer of methyl methacrylate (MMA) bonding systems to many leading rail and rolling stock producers around the world. Three of SCIGRIP’s key structural adhesive products have achieved the EN45545-2 2013 Fire Smoke and Toxicity (FST) accreditation therefore providing absolute assurance in terms of passenger safety standards along with tough and reliable assembly performance.
Product Highlights include:

Product Highlights include:
- SG300: Ideal for internal and also external bonding requirements, SG300 is an excellent choice for bonding metals, metals to plastics and metals to composites therefore replacing or reducing the need for mechanical fasteners. Possible applications include; light cluster assemblies, internal door constructions and internal and external panel structures. SG300 demonstrates excellent environmental and chemical resistance and is available with a choice of working times.
- SG230: A very well established system, SG230 is a two-component, 10:1 mix ratio product for bonding composite and other plastic parts with little or often no surface preparation required. SG230 also features excellent fatigue and vibration resistance for key structural areas and can bond to metal structures with a simple priming process. This adhesive is also designed to work with a selection of activators to provide a wide range of working times from 30 to 120 minutes. It is especially suited to bonding big structural components and ideal for filling large irregular gaps such as structural floor parts and locomotive front nose cone applications.
- SG800: The SG800 range demonstrates excellent environmental endurance and increased thermal resistance of temperatures above 120°C making it particularly effective for external panel bonding and higher temperature internal panel applications. SG800 products will appeal to manufacturers striving to optimise part design, production speeds and ultimately reduce costs.
