An apparatus emits radiation on curable adhesives to bond things together under different ambient conditions. An insulating housing has a cylindrical section and a disc-shaped section defining an interior. A plurality of batteries and an LED array are separated in the interior by an insulating spacer to prevent shorting of batteries. A switch relay in the interior connects power from the batteries to the LED array when a switching mechanism on the outside of the housing is displaced. This displacement closes the switch relay and connects power to the LED array that emits high-intensity radiation. A cover connected to the cylindrical-shaped section seals the interior from ambient and transmits the high-intensity radiation to cure an adhesive. A modular envelope of transparent disc, adhesive, and removable foil can be releasable connected to the housing to secure mounting structure to a surface.

An apparatus emits radiation on curable adhesives to bond objects or surfaces together under a variety of ambient conditions. An insulating housing has a cylindrical section and a disc-shaped section defining an interior.

An interface system supports a load from a surface. A disc-shaped base member is adapted to be secured to a supporting surface. A flexible member has one portion secured to the base member and another portion extends from the base member in a flexible loop to attach and support a tensile load. A cavity in the base member faces an inner surface thereof and contains an adhesive to secure the one portion of the flexible member, and an opening in the center of the base member extends from the cavity to the outer surface to pass the load-bearing flexible loop from the center of the base member and provide a flexible attachment for the tensile load in the center of the base member.
