COATESVILLE, PA – Nathan Trotter & Co. today announced its acquisition of the Loctite bar solder division of Henkel Electronics.

Terms were not disclosed.

Prior to the acquisition, Nathan Trotter produced all Loctite bar solder sold in North America on behalf of Henkel Electronics. Effective immediately, Loctite bar solder will be produced and sold under the Nathan Trotter name.

Nathan Trotter manufacturer's representative E-Tronix is also a partner to the deal.

The deal is expected to generate significant sales and production efficiencies in electronics assembly, said Nathan Trotter in a press release. The company intends to maintain the purity, performance and quality standards while lowering its minimum order quantities.

“While we enjoyed our successful relationship with Henkel producing Loctite solder bar on their behalf, we look forward to showing the electronics assembly market the benefits of working directly with Nathan Trotter for solder bar and recycling services,” said Luke Etherington, vice president of Nathan Trotter.

CIRCUITS ASSEMBLY reported on Dec. 19 that Henkel had ceased selling bar solder worldwide.
