Best Practices for 3M 1751 B/A
-
Surface Preparation
For high strength structural bonds, paint, oxide films, oils, dust, mold release agents and all other surface contaminants must be completely removed. The amount of surface preparation depends on the required bond strength and the environmental aging resistance desired by user.
See Vendor Technical Data sheet for more information.
-
Application
Use gloves to minimize skin contact with adhesive.
Application to the substrates should be made within 45 minutes. Large quantities and/or higher temperatures will reduce this working time.
Join the adhesive coated surfaces and allow to cure at 60°F (16°C) or above until firm. Up to 200°F (93°C), will speed curing.
Keep parts from moving until handling strength is reached. Contact pressure is necessary. Maximum shear strength is obtained with a 3-5 mil bond line.
-
Mixing
This product consists of two parts. Mix thoroughly by weight or volume in the proportions specified in the Uncured Properties Section. Mix approximately 15 seconds after a uniform color is obtained.
-
Clean-Up
Excess uncured adhesive can be cleaned up with ketone type solvents.*
*Note: When using solvents, extinguish all ignition sources and follow manufacturer’s precautions and directions for use.
