Wondering if anyone has used Loctite (Henkel/Hysol) 9460 structural adhesive in their build. There is a Just Aircraft Super STOL project at our airport and this product is used in some areas in combination with pull rivets to attach various steel brackets to alum members. In my -4 build I've used Proseal to bond (reduce movement due to vibration) the elevator skin stiffeners for example. 9460 would have been easier to use in this application. Has anyone else made use of it? The only downside I can see is that once cured, it's very rigid so if there is any flexing around the joint there could be some debonding.
I can see this product being useful for bonding the alum reinforcing strip to the inside of the fiberglass tips for example instead of regular epoxy.
