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 oxidizing materials.
For safe handling information on this product, consult the
Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS).
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.
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
1. For best performance bond surfaces should be clean and
free from grease.
2. To ensure a fast and reliable cure, Activator 7075™
should be applied to one of the bond surfaces and the
adhesive to the other surface. Parts should be assembled
within 15 minutes.
3. The recommended bondline gap is 0.1mm. Where bond
gaps are large (up to a maximum of 0.5 mm), or faster
cure speed is required, Activator 7075™ should be
applied to both surfaces. Parts should be assembled
immediately (within 1 minute).
4. Excess adhesive can be wiped away with organic solvent.
5. Bond should be held clamped until adhesive has fixtured.
6. Product should be allowed to develop full strength before
subjecting to any service loads (typically 24 to 72 hours
after assembly, depending on bond gap, materials and
ambient conditions).
