Applications & Uses

Usage Instructions

• Mix well at room temperature, the contents of the adhesive container before removing material.
• For optimum mixing and mix ratio accuracy, we recommend that batch sizes be not smaller than 25 grams and that the weighing tolerances be within ±5%.
• Add the designated activator to the preweighed adhesive and mix thoroughly.
• In some applications, warming the substrate to 120°F will aid the flow during application. Cure as indicated.
