Instructions for use
To ensure a perfect bond, the surfaces to be joined
must be clean and dry (e.g., clean and degrease using
Cleaner S or Plastic Cleaner). Smooth surfaces should
be roughened, e.g. by sandblasting.
WEICON Repair-Sticks cover gaps of max. 15 mm per
procedure. The pot life given is for a material quantity of
25 g at room temperature. If larger quantities are used,
the curing time will be faster due to the typical reaction
heat of epoxy resins (exothermic reaction).
Similarly, higher ambient temperatures shorten the cure
time (as a rule of thumb, every +10°C increase above
room temperature will halve working and curing time).
Temperatures below +16°C will extend working and
curing times considerably, while below about +5°C, no
reaction will take place at all.
Physiological properties / health and safety at work
WEICON Repair Sticks, when properly handled and
completely cured, are toxicologically essentially harmless. When using these adhesives, the physical, safety
technical, toxicological and ecological data and regulations in our EC safety data sheets (www.weicon.de)
must be observed.
Storage
When kept at a constant room temperature of about
+20°C and unopened in dry conditions, WEICON Repair Sticks will keep for at least 18 months. Avoid direct
sunlight.
