Description

WHAT IS IT?

PROPERTIES
Extra strong
Fast but temporarily adjustable
Does not drip
Ideal for porous materials and vertical surfaces

WHAT DOES IT DO?

SUITABLE FOR:
Ideal for small-area bonds. Glues almost all solid and flexible materials like ceramics, leather, rubber, many plastics (such as rigid PVC, ABS, PS, Plexiglas®, polycarbonate (Makrolon®), and phenolic resins (Bakelite®)), porcelain, metal, wood, cork, felt, and cloth (check suitability first). Only partly suitable for glass (over a certain period of time the bond becomes brittle, causing it to weaken). Ideal for porous materials.

NOT SUITABLE FOR:
Not suitable for PE, PP, silicone resins, PTFE, Styrofoam®, fabrics and leather clothing.

GETTING STARTED

BEFORE USE:
Working conditions
Do not use at temperatures below 10 °C. The glue responds best to an air humidity level of 50-70 %.

Surface requirements
Surfaces to be glued must be clean, dry, and free of dust and grease, and must fit exactly.

Preliminary surface treatment
Any dust, oil, grease, wax or separating agent should be thoroughly removed from the surfaces to be stuck together. The best way to achieve this is to rub the parts a number of times with appropriate solvents, such as acetone (if suitable for the material – check first!). For metals and metal alloys it is usually sufficient to roughen the surface using emery paper or by grinding or brushing.

DURING USE:
Directions for use
1. To pierce the membrane, turn the cap clockwise firmly onto the tube. Tip: do not press the tube while piercing. 2. Unscrew the cap to reveal the applicator. Apply the adhesive directly from the tube, using the nozzle, as thinly as possible onto one side (too much glue slows down the curing process significantly). Press parts together immediately. After use, clean nozzle with a dry tissue and replace cap.

Advice
When glueing at low humidity, curing time can be shortened by briefly breathing onto one of the parts to be assembled. The best glueing results are reached at room temperature.

Points of attention
Contains cyanoacrylate. Bonds skin and eyelids together in seconds. If product comes into contact with the eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice. In case of contact with skin, glue can be dissolved by soaking in warm soapy water. Then apply a skin cream. May cause respiratory irritation. Avoid breathing vapours. Keep out of the reach of children.

AFTER USE:
Stains/residue
Wipe off excess glue immediately with a dry cloth. After curing, glue residue is very difficult to remove. Acetone will dissolve glue but very slowly (check suitability first).

Storage conditions
Store in a dry, cool, frost-free place. Storage below 5 °C (in refrigerator) ensures maximum shelf life.
