ET505 is a semi-flexible toughened epoxy adhesive with good adhesion to a variety of substrates such as wood, metal, ceramics and some plastics and composites. Permabond ET505 forms tough bonds providing high peel resistance and high shear strength. The extended work life of this product allows for adjustment and makes it more suitable for larger applications.

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 1-2 hours 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 5 hours or until handling strength is obtained.
6. Full cure will be obtained after 72 hours at 25°C (77°F). Heat can be used to accelerate the curing process.
