Panel Adhesive Technology
AUTOMOTIVE PANEL ADHESIVE
RitterAuto™ is both an adhesive and sealant. It is a single-component polymer specifically formulated for use in the heavy vehicle transport and recreational vehicle industries. It consists of a modified polymer technology delivering an optimum balance of adhesion, cohesive strength and vibration absorption. It allows dynamic stresses to be compensated and conventional fasteners (screws, rivets, etc.) to be partially or completely replaced.
