Selectable Materials

  • P-Bas® bonding is generally suitable for all steel-based materials.
  • We understand the characteristics of each material and consistently achieve bonding strength that retains over 90% of the base material strength across all material types.
  • Heat and pressure conditions vary depending on the material, so we have been developing bonding conditions suitable for each material.

Supported Part Sizes for P-Bas® Bonding

  • P-Bas® bonding can be applied to components with dimensions of up to 120 mm in diameter, 140 mm in height, and a total volume of 350,000 mm3 or less.
  • The recommended size is approximately the size of the palm of the hand. As long as the part fits within the bonding equipment, multiple components can be bonded simultaneously in a single cycle.

Notes on Dissimilar Materials and Bondable Shapes

Bonding Dissimilar Materials

  • P-Bas® also supports the bonding of dissimilar materials.
  • By combining standard mold and die materials with materials that offer high thermal conductivity or non-magnetic properties, material costs can be reduced.

Materials : Copper + Brass + Iron

Bondable Shapes

  • Flat joints are the basic type of joint.
  • In a joint where a cooling channel is inserted into a cylinder, only the flat surface of the lid will be properly bonded; incomplete bonding will result on the sidewalls.
  • Similarly, when bonding parts with steps or uneven surfaces, vertical areas may not achieve full bonding.
