Data Ranges The data contained herein may be reported as a typical value and/or range (based on the mean value ±2 standard deviations). Values are based on actual test data and are verified on a periodic basis. 120°C 75 This product is not normally recommended for use on plastics (particularly thermoplastic materials where stress cracking of the plastic could result). Users are recommended to confirm compatibility of the product with such substrates. Directions for use For best performance surfaces should be clean and free of grease. Ensure joint is completely filled with adhesive. For slip fitted assemblies this is achieved by applying adhesive around the pin and the leading edge of the collar and using a rotating motion during assembly to ensure good coverage. For press fitted assemblies adhesive should be applied thoroughly to both bond surfaces and assembled at high press on rates. For shrink fitted assemblies the adhesive should be coated onto the pin, the collar should then be heated to create sufficient clearance for free assembly. Parts should not be disturbed until sufficient handling strength is achieved. For more detailed information on using retaining adhesives contact your local Technical Service Centre. Hot Strength Tested at temperature. 0 Where aqueous washing systems are used to clean the surfaces before bonding, it is important to check for compatibility of the washing solution with the adhesive. In some cases these aqueous washes can affect the cure and performance of the adhesive. 90 95 100 90 100 80 GENERAL INFORMATION This product is not recommended for use in pure oxygen and/or oxygen rich systems and should not be selected as a sealant for chlorine or other strong oxidising materials.
