With 450 to 650 mPas, Vitralit UV 4050 MV is of medium viscosity. When cured it shows good flexibility and stability. This transparent adhesive has a very low shrinkage of only 2 percent.

The newly developed adhesive provides adhesion to most plastics as well as to stainless steel and glass. If at least one assembly material is transparent, Vitralit UV 4050 MV will cure quickly to produce a strong and reliable bond.
