Note: The technical information and data on these pages should be considered representative or typical only and should not be used for specification purposes. Final product
selection should be made only after consideration of a variety of factors and evaluations of sample bonds.
*Produces a temporary bond on these materials. (1) Adhesives must be force dried and bonded while warm. (2) For best results, preheat the substrate to a minimum of
120°F (49°C). (3) Evaluate usage surface activator.
