1. Product Overview

Dymax MD® 215-CTH-UR-SC is an LED-curable medical adhesive that incorporates Encompass® Technology, which integrates See-Cure® (blue-to-colorless visual cure indicator) and Ultra-Red® fluorescing features. This dual system enables both real-time visual confirmation of adhesive placement and reliable post-cure bond-line inspection. The product is specifically designed for difficult-to-bond plastics such as Nylon 12 and PEBA, making it particularly valuable in advanced catheter manufacturing. It is solvent-free, cures rapidly under LED/UV light, and is fully compliant with RoHS Directive 2015/863/EU .


2. Applications

The adhesive is engineered for next-generation catheter and medical device assemblies, including:

  • Balloon-to-lumen bonding

  • Hub-to-lumen bonding

  • Marker band attachment

  • Manifold bonding

  • General catheter assembly
