For complete safety and handling information, please refer to the
appropriate Safety Data Sheets prior to using this product.
The rate of cure will depend on environmental conditions and
the substrates used. The gap of the bond line will affect set
speed. Smaller gaps tend to increase set speed. Activators
may be applied to further improve set speed, but may also
impair overall adhesive performance.
Storage
Products should be stored unopened in a cool, dry place out of direct
sunlight. Products may be refrigerated for improved shelf life, but
should be brought back to room temperature before use.

General Instructions
Surfaces to be bonded should be clean and dry and free of grease.
Product should be applied in enough quantity to fill all engaged
threads or gap. The product performs best in thin bond gaps. Very
large gaps may create gaps that will affect the cure speed and overall
strength. Good contact is essential. It is recommended to confirm
compatibility of the product with all substrates prior to use. This
product is not recommended for use with strong oxidizing materials.
Where aqueous washing systems are used to clean the surfaces
before bonding, these aqueous washes can affect the cure and
performance of the adhesive. This product is not normally
recommended for use on plastics, users must check compatibility of
the product with such substrates.
