Product Uses When the manufacturer's directions are followed, this product can be used to bond door skins, roof skins, quarter panels and box sides. In addition, product can be used for bumper cover repair under certain conditions. Typical substrates include cold roll steel, aluminum, SMC, and FRP. This product is not intended to bond structural components of a vehicle such pillars, rockers, or frame members. If doubt exists as to whether a particular component is structural, then that component should be welded. Performance Properties Overlap Shear Adhesion Adhesion to Various Substrates Typical overlap shear strength of bonds with 10 to 12 mil bondlines are reported below as pounds per square inch (psi). All materials except aluminum, E-Coat, and two-part epoxy primed steel, were abraded with a 50 grit coated abrasive and solvent wiped with 3M General Purpose Adhesive Cleaner, P.N. 08984. Aluminum samples were abraded with a Scotch-Brite Rivet Cleaning Disc, P.N. 07410 and solvent wiped. E-Coat samples were solvent wiped. No extra surface preparation was performed on the epoxy primed steel. The bonds were allowed to cure for 7 days at 73F and then tested on a Sintech tester at a joint separation rate of 0.5 inches/minute. *all adhesion values in psi Substrate 0.057" Steel/0.057" Steel 0.036" Steel/0.036" Steel 0.035" E-Coat Primed Steel/0.035" E-Coat Primed Steel 0.036" Galvanized Steel/0.036" Galvanized Steel Two-Part Epoxy Primed 0.036" Steel/Two-Part Epoxy Primed 0.036" Steel 0.062" Aluminum 6111/0.062" Aluminum 6111 0.063" Aluminum 5754/0.063" Aluminum 5754 0.057" Steel/0.062" Aluminum 6111 FRP/FRP SMC/SMC ABS (Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene)/ABS Acrylic (Plexiglas)/Acrylic Polycarbonate (Lexan)/Polycarbonate PVC/PVC HIPS (High Impact Polystyrene)/HIPS Polystyrene/Polystyrene Polypropylene/Polypropylene High Density Polyethylene/HDPE Low Density Polyethylene/LDPE SBR/SBR *(S)=Substrate Failure (A)=Adhesive Failure (C)=Cohesive Failure Adhesion to Steel at Varying Bondline Thickness *all adhesion values in psi Bondline Thickness 10 mils 0.036" thick steel 2690 0.057" thick steel 3935 -40F 73F 180F 4003(C) 3935(C)* 3309(C) 2904(C) 1259(A) 3514(S) 3008(C) 2183 3144(C) 2152(A) 3795(C) 1283(S) 785(S) 942(S) 345(A) 733(S) 578(A) 122(A) 116(A) 435(A) 311(A) 176(A) 104(S)
