Permabond ET500 – Transparent Epoxy Adhesive

Applications

1. Dual cartridges:
   a) Insert the cartridge into the application gun and guide the plunger into the cartridge.
   b) Remove the cartridge cap and dispense material until both sides are flowing.
   c) Attach the static mixer to the end of the cartridge and begin dispensing the material.
2. Apply material to one of the substrates.
3. Join the parts. Parts must be joined within 3-4 minutes of mixing the two epoxy components.
4. Large quantities and/or higher temperature will decrease the usable life or pot life.
5. Apply pressure to the assembly by clamping for 8 minutes or until handling strength is obtained.
6. Full cure will be obtained after 24 hours at 25°C (77°F). Heat can be used to accelerate the curing process.

NB. Exercise caution when mixing large quantities due to exothermic reaction.
