463 • 465 • 9457 • 9665
Application
Techniques • Bond strength is dependent upon the amount of adhesive-to-surface contact developed.
Firm application pressure helps develop better adhesive contact and improve bond strength.
• To obtain optimum adhesion, the bonding surfaces must be clean, dry, and well unified.
Some typical surface cleaning solvents are isopropyl alcohol or heptane.*
*Be sure to follow manufacturer’s safety precautions and directions for use when using solvents.
• Ideal tape application temperature range is 70°F to 100°F (21°C to 38°C). Initial tape
application to surfaces at temperatures below 50°F (10°C) is not recommended because the
adhesive becomes too firm to adhere readily. Ho wever, once properly applied, low
temperature holding is generally satisfactory.
