ÅngströmBond® ÅnaeBond™ AB202 Fast Cure Fiber Optic Adhesive Kit, Room Temperature Cure (20ml Adhesive + 1.75 oz Primer)

ÅngströmBond® ÅnaeBond™ AB202 is a high-performance cyanoacrylate adhesive system specifically designed for fiber optic connector termination and optical assembly applications. This low-viscosity black adhesive delivers strong, reliable bonds while offering excellent resistance to heat, humidity, and harsh environmental conditions.

Unlike many instant-cure adhesives, AB202 provides a controlled working time when used with Primer #2, allowing technicians sufficient time for connector assembly and fiber positioning before curing. Once cured, the adhesive develops a high glass transition temperature, helping reduce fiber pistoning and maintain long-term connector performance in demanding environments.

The kit includes a 20 ml bottle of adhesive and a 1.75 fl. oz. bottle of Primer #2 for rapid room-temperature curing.

Features and Benefits

Designed for Fiber Optic Connector Termination

Optimized for high-strength bonding and reliable performance in fiber optic connector assemblies.

Fast Room-Temperature Cure

Cures in approximately 2 to 3 minutes when used with Primer #2, improving production efficiency while allowing adequate assembly time.

High Glass Transition Temperature

Develops a Tg of 130°C after curing, helping minimize fiber pistoning and maintaining connector stability under temperature variations.

Black Color for Easy Polishing

The black adhesive provides excellent visual contrast during polishing and inspection processes.

Low Viscosity Formula

Flows easily into ferrules and connector assemblies for consistent bonding and reliable fiber retention.

Excellent Environmental Resistance

Resists heat, humidity, and damp environments for long-term durability and performance.

Complete Adhesive System

Includes both adhesive and primer for immediate use in production and laboratory environments.
