Weld On 4 Cement 4oz is a water-thin, somewhat flammable solvent-cement designed for solvent welding plastics—especially acrylic (poly-methyl methacrylate) to itself. In an aquarium shop, it’s a practical choice for repairing or fabricating acrylic components where you want clear, strong bonds formed by softening the mating surfaces and fusing them together. The result is a butt joint that develops quickly and continues to strengthen over the following hours, making it useful for enclosure-style projects and other thermoplastic assemblies that benefit from clear, high-strength seams.
Features:
- Blush-resistant cement intended to help reduce white marks (“blushing”) compared with some other solvent cements
- Water-thin and formulated to quickly develop very clear, high-strength bonds
- Bonds acrylic to acrylic (poly-methyl methacrylate), and can also bond other thermoplastics to themselves
- Works with thermoplastics such as polystyrene, CAB (cellulose acetate butyrate), and polycarbonate (when bonding like materials to themselves)
- Not recommended for cross-linked acrylic
- Initial bond forms within minutes, with bond strength continuing to increase over the next several hours
Specifications:
- Product size: 4 oz
- Intended material compatibility: Acrylic (poly-methyl methacrylate) to itself
- Other compatible thermoplastics (like-to-like bonding): Polystyrene, CAB (cellulose acetate butyrate), and polycarbonate to themselves
- Not recommended for: Cross-linked acrylic
- Bonding behavior: Initial bond forms within minutes; bond strength increases significantly over the next several hours
