Structural Bonding of Finishing Profiles

Bonding Instead of Mechanical Fastening

Finishing profiles fulfill important functions in vehicle and ship construction:

Edge protection
Component termination
Sealing of transitions
Visual enhancement
Protection against moisture and dirt

Mechanical fastening methods often result in:

Corrosion points caused by component penetration
Leakage due to material movement
Stress cracks in transition areas
Increased assembly effort
Visible fastening elements

Structural bonding provides clear advantages:

✔ Permanent bonding and sealing in a single step
✔ Even stress distribution
✔ No corrosion points
✔ Weight reduction
✔ Clean, high-quality appearance
✔ Suitable for series production and custom manufacturing

Typical Challenges in Finishing Profile Bonding

Different material combinations
Continuous vibration exposure
Temperature and moisture fluctuations
UV and weather exposure in exterior areas
Requirements for elasticity and sealing performance
High visual standards in visible areas

COSMO® systems are specifically developed to meet these challenges.

Suitable Material Combinations

Our adhesive systems are suitable for applications such as:

Elastic MS Hybrid Adhesives

For Stress-Compensating and Sealing Profile Connections

MS hybrid adhesives are ideal when structural bonding and permanent sealing must be combined.
