1. Product Overview

Dymax MD® 1181-M is a multipurpose, UV/Visible light-curable adhesive designed for bonding both plastics and metals commonly used in medical device manufacturing. The material is solvent-free, cures rapidly under light exposure, and fluoresces blue under low-intensity black light (365 nm) to facilitate in-line inspection. It is engineered to cure effectively even through certain UV-blocking plastics. This product is in full compliance with RoHS Directive 2015/863/EU


2. Applications

The adhesive is suitable for a range of medical device assembly processes, including:

  • Reservoir bonding

  • Transducer bonding

  • Potting
