Processing

Processing

N/A Under normal temperature conditions and when used with the recommended mix ratio this adhesive will typically provide a working time of approximately 60 - 70 minutes.

Substrates to be bonded should be properly surface treated and be free from any contaminants. Mix both components thoroughly for several minutes until a homogeneous mixture is obtained, or dispense from a 1:1 200 ml or 50 ml dual barrel cartridge. For the 200 mL size, use TAH 10-mm diameter x 24-element spiral mixing nozzle or equivalent. For the 50 mL, use Mixpac™ B-system 06-mm diameter x 20- element spiral mixing nozzle or equivalent.

Specifications

Applications

N/A The mixed adhesive should be spread with a spatula to the suitably pretreated dry joint surfaces. A layer of adhesive 0.004 to 0.012 inches (0.1 to 0.3 mm) thick will normally provide the maximum lap shear strength. This adhesive, however, has been designed to be effective in layers up to 0.12 in. (3 mm). The components to be bonded should be assembled and clamped as soon as the adhesive has been applied. Even contact pressure throughout the joint area during cure will ensure optimum performance.
