Extract

Metal adhesives have been known to the Aircraft Industry for at least ten years, the Chrysler Cycle Weld process being among the earliest. Since then metal-to-metal bonding has been the subject of many papers, but no member of a firm of aircraft constructors is known to have lectured on the subject.

It is hoped, therefore, that this paper may prove a useful contribution to the workshop aspects of the method. The fundamentals of adhesion will be avoided and only brief reference will be made to the strengths of structures assembled by that means; those are matters for the physicist and aircraft designer.
