Franklin Adhesives & Polymers’ FilterFAB makes it easier and quicker to fabricate durable filters.

Franklin Adhesives & Polymers’ FilterFAB line includes two powerful, fast-setting PVA adhesives for general air filter assembly and a versatile solvent-free polyurethane adhesive for end cap potting and edge/frame sealing. The line of adhesives brings strength, speed and convenience to filter assembly.

Rigorous in-house testing indicates that both of the two PVA adhesives – FilterFAB 200 and FilterFAB 300 – offer stronger bond strength than other filter fabrication adhesives. Both of these PVA products provide the convenience of one-part formulation and the easy cleanup inherent in water-based adhesives. Compatibility with most glue spreader systems makes it all the easier to use either one of these two FilterFAB products.

FilterFAB 2000 is a two-component solvent-free polyurethane assembly adhesive for assembling air, water and oil filters. It is particularly ideal for potting filter end caps and bonding side seams. This versatile adhesive bonds well to metals, PVC, vinyl, fiberglass and cellulosic materials and offers good chemical resistance as well as good heat resistance. Room-temperature cure time of three to five minutes can be heat accelerated, and it reaches handling strength in less than ten minutes. As powerful as it is versatile, this FilterFAB adhesive offers Shore D Hardness of 80 to 82 (when fully cured) and meets FDA regulation CFR 175.105 for indirect food contact. It is also available in two colors, beige and white.

Franklin Adhesives & Polymers is a division of Franklin International: Based in Columbus, Ohio, U.S.A., Franklin International was established in 1935 and today is among the largest privately held manufacturers of adhesives, sealants and polymers for commercial and industrial applications. Franklin integrates its core competency – emulsion polymerization – into a broad product offering, including glues, adhesives, hot melts, binders, sizing compounds and more. These products are distributed across six continents for use in filter assembly, construction, furniture manufacturing, millwork, paper converting, pressure-sensitive products and fiberglass reinforcement.
