Securely position components, move them through manufacturing or testing processes and then remove the bond without leaving residues: the specialty mounting adhesives from the KAGER Adhesive Line are designed specifically for temporary bonding applications. Available in five versions with thermal flow points ranging from 49 °C to 150 °C, they provide a practical alternative to mechanical fixtures, clamping devices and complex mounting systems.
Mounting adhesives for temporary and removable bonds
Conventional industrial adhesives are generally designed to create strong and permanent bonds. KAGER removable mounting adhesives follow a different principle: they are used to temporarily fix and accurately position components for a defined period of time.
Typical applications include:
- Prototype manufacturing
- Model and sample construction
- Testing technology
- Test bench construction
- Pre-assembly
- Design and product development
- Temporary fixing during manufacturing and machining processes
Components can therefore be held in position without requiring complex mechanical assembly followed by subsequent disassembly.
Five versions with flow points from 49 °C to 150 °C
KAGER supplies these specialty adhesives in stick form and in five different versions. Depending on the grade, their thermal flow points range from 49 °C to 150 °C.
The mounting adhesive is heated before being applied to the required surface.
It can be used for temporary fixing on:
- Ceramic surfaces
- Glass
- Metal surfaces
After application, the adhesive develops good adhesion and bonding strength, enabling components to remain securely positioned during subsequent operations.
Fix, process and transport components – then release the bond
One of the key characteristics of KAGER mounting adhesives is their reversibility. Bonded components can pass safely through different stages of a production or testing process or be transported between individual processing stations.
When the temporary bond is no longer required, it can be deactivated by reheating.
The special formulation is designed to protect sensitive surfaces, while the mounting adhesive can be removed without leaving residues after use.
This makes the technology particularly suitable wherever a bond is required only during specific manufacturing, testing, development or presentation stages.
Cost-effective alternative to clamping fixtures and profile systems
Temporary component fixing often requires mechanical aids such as clamps, frames, holders or profile systems. These solutions can require additional space and may involve considerable design effort and cost.
KAGER temporary mounting adhesives provide a straightforward and cost-effective alternative. Depending on the application, additional mechanical fastening components can be avoided.
Another advantage is that the adhesive does not interfere with the visual appearance of a pre-assembled component. This makes the mounting adhesives suitable for presentations, design models and trade fair exhibits as well.

Specialty adhesives from the KAGER Adhesive Line
The removable mounting adhesives form part of the KAGER Adhesive Line, a product range aimed particularly at design engineers, product developers, production specialists and maintenance professionals.
In addition to mounting adhesives, the Adhesive Line includes a selection of industrial adhesives, repair compounds and potting compounds for demanding technical applications, including products for operating temperatures of more than 500 °C.
Products from the KAGER Adhesive Line are also available in small quantities.
KAGER mounting adhesives are therefore an attractive solution wherever components need to be securely positioned but a permanent adhesive bond is specifically not required.
