Directions for Use Place the cartridge into the
3M EPX Applicator and clip into position.
Remove the resealable cap.Expel a small quantity of
adhesive and ensure both components flow freely.
Attach correct mixer nozzle (this should have 20 or
more elements).Dispense the adhesive as
required.
When finished either leave the nozzle in place and
store, or remove the nozzle,wipe clean the tip, and
replace cap.
To re-start after storage remove the old nozzle with
cured adhesive and re-fit a new nozzle, or remove the
cap and fit a new nozzle.
Surface Preparation:The degree of surface preparation depends on the
bond strength required and the environment likely to be
encountered by the bonded structure.
For most applications solvent wiping with 3M
VHB? Surface Cleaner,followed by abrasion with
3M Scotchbrite? 7447,followed by a further solvent
wipe until clean, will give good performance (except
for acetal, polyethylene and polypropylene and some
other low surface energy materials). The same
process will also give good adhesion to metal surfaces.
Where humid environments are likely to be encountered
we recommend additional priming with 3M ScotchWeld
1945B/A for metal surfaces.
Clean Up Clean-Up:
Excess uncured adhesive can be removed with the
following products:3M VHB Surface Cleaner
(mild alcohol based cleaner)
3M Scotch-Grip Solvent No2. (Ketone blend)
3M Industrial Cleaner (Aerosol).
