DLP – LOCTITE IND249

Last updated: January 4, 2026

LOCTITE IND249 is a semi-flexible black resin with excellent impact resistance and a smooth matte finish. It offers a unique balance of stiffness, ductility, and surface quality — making it ideal for snap-fit components, enclosures, and mechanically loaded parts.

Key Material Facts:

  • Impact Resistant – High toughness with energy-absorbing capability
  • Semi-Flexible Performance – Combines moderate elongation (51–57%) with rigidity
  • Superior Surface Finish – Clean, matte black appearance with minimal post-processing
  • Reliable Mechanical Strength – 48–51 MPa tensile strength, 2.2 GPa flexural modulus
  • Chemical Resistance – Excellent resistance to fluids like mineral oil and brake fluid
  • Biocompatibility Certified – ISO 10993-5 compliant

Common Applications:

IND249 is well-suited for components requiring snap, flex, and durability:

  • Snap-fit housings and enclosures
  • Shock-absorbing brackets and supports
  • Semi-rigid ducts, guides, and protective covers
  • Functional prototypes and structural end-use parts
  • Automotive and industrial fixtures exposed to mechanical stress
