APPLICATIONS
ARALDITE STEEL bonds most metals such as steel, galvanized steel,
cast iron, aluminum, iron, copper and brass. Will also bond non metallic
materials such as ceramic, wood and glass.
IMPORTANT:
ARALDITE STEEL is not suitable for bonding rear-view mirrors to car
windscreens. Do not use for items, which may contain food or drink, as
the joint however secure and clean it may appear, may entrap bacteria
from the environment. Not intended for repairs on safety critical items
e.g. rotating parts of hover mowers. Please note that some items are
molded from polymers such as polythene or polypropylene, for example,
and are simply not designed for repair. Repair may not be viable or
would need specialist chemical treatment to achieve a bond.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
- Make sure surfaces are dry, clean and free from dust, dirt and
grease. For even better bonding slightly roughen surfaces with sandpaper
and degrease metal with suitable solvent.
- Remove cups from the tubes.
- Dispense equal volumes of resin and hardener onto a clean disposable
surface. Mix well for 30 seconds, by stirring and folding, with a
plastic palette knife. It is important to ensure a thorough mix. Reseal
tubes with their correct caps as soon as possible.
- Apply the mixed adhesive within 5 minutes to both surfaces of the
joint and assemble carefully. A layer of adhesive 0.05 to 0.10 mm thick
will normally impart the greatest lap shear strength to the joint.
- Keep the joint supported until set. A rubber band or sticky tape is
ideal. An approximate guide to support and handling times at room
temperature is given below:
Pot life: 5 minutes, approximately at 23oC
Support time: 1 hour at 23oC
Full strength: 2 hours at 23oC
Setting times may be shorter in hot weather. In cold conditions the
rate of curing of the mixed adhesive may be slowed down significantly
and weak joints may result. For best results, use between 20oC and 25oC. - For a perfect finish carefully remove any excess adhesive with a sharp knife before the adhesive has fully hardened.
REMARKS
Thorough mixing is the key to getting a good cured product. Simply
stirring leaves unmixed materials at the margins. Always fold in the
edges then re-stir. Cured adhesive may yellow if exposed to sunlight for
long periods.
