Situation:

A contractor wanted to secure glass panels on a steel handrail to ensure glass panels don’t loosen over a period of time.

Substrates: Tempered Glass (Sekurit), Stainless Steel

Due to differences in the co-efficient of thermal expansion between glass and steel:

Constant thermal cycling led to loss of original torque load of the railing hardware
Safety issues focused on the loosening of stair railing hardware creating a hazard for students

For securely bonding glass walls to steel handrails, Henkel solutions expert recommended using LOCTITE E-30CL epoxy adhesive.

LOCTITE E-30CL is dispensed onto the hardware face and the assembly is torqued to its designed specifications.

Bonding with LOCTITE E-30CL:

Adds additional security to railing by bonding the hardware to the glass panel
Ensures safety even under conditions of change in substrate dimensions from thermal exposure
Provides an optically clear bond which does not impact aesthetics
