    Shelf Life Details Storage: Store product at 60-80°F (15-27°C) for maximum storage life. Higher temperatures reduce normal storage life. Lower temperatures cause increased viscosity of a temporary nature. Rotate stock on a “first in-first out” basis.;Shelf Life: When stored in the original unopened container, under the conditions recommended, these products have a shelf life from date of shipment as follows:3M™ Scotch-Grip™ Rubber & Gasket Adhesive 847-L 15 months.

  • Best Practices for 3M 847L

    *See Terms of Use Below

    1. Surface Preparation

      Remove all dust, dirt, oil, grease, wax, loose paint, etc. Wiping with a solvent such as methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) or 3M™ Citrus Base Cleaner will aid in preparing the surface for bonding.*

      *When using solvents, extinguish all ignition sources, including pilot lights, and follow the manufacturer’s precautions and directions for use.

    2. Application

      For best results the temperature of the adhesive and surfaces to be bonded should be at least 65°F (18°C).

      Stir well before using.

      Porous Surface(s): Brush, flow or spray a thin, even coat of adhesive to one or both surfaces. Coating both surfaces is preferred since it gives greater strength and permits longer open time before bonding. Very absorbent materials may require more than one coat. Bond while adhesive is still wet or aggressively tacky. Join surfaces with firm pressure.

      Non-Porous Surfaces: Brush, flow or spray a thin, even coat of adhesive to both surfaces. Allow adhesive to dry until tacky. Join surfaces with firm pressure.

    3. Curing

      Drying time depends on temperature, humidity, air movement, and porosity of the materials bonded. Greater immediate strength may be obtained by heat or solvent reactivation.

      Reactivation: To solvent reactivate, coat both surfaces with adhesive. Allow to dry tack-free. Lightly wipe one surface with a solvent such as Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK).* Complete bond within 30 seconds. To heat activate, coat both surfaces with adhesive. Allow adhesive to dry completely. Reactivate by heating one or both surfaces to a minimum of 180°F (82°C). Assemble immediately (while hot), using firm pressure to ensure contact.

      See Vendor Technical Data Sheet for more info.

    4. Clean-Up

      Excess adhesive may be removed with a solvent such as methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) or acetone, preferably while adhesive is still wet.*

      *When using solvents, extinguish all ignition sources, including pilot lights, and follow the manufacturer’s precautions and directions for use.
