Best Practices for 3M Scotch-Weld Polyurethane Reactive Adhesive TS115HGS
-
Surface Preparation
See Vendor Technical Data Sheet for more info.
-
Curing
The cure rate will vary depending on air temperature, relative humidity, substrate type and bond line thickness. Cure rate is more rapid on wood (moisture-rich substrate) than on plastic.
-
Clean-Up
Allow product to solidify. Remove uncured waxy material (usually within the first 20 minutes after application) by scraping with a putty knife or similar tool. For cured material, remove by cutting or sanding. Do not use heat or flame to remove adhesive.

Set Time Test Methods
Set Time | Test Method |
---|---|
1.00 min | The minimum amount of time required between when the bond is made and when it will support a 5 psi tensile load. Open times and set times are based on a room temperature environment. High temperatures will lengthen open times and set times while lower environmental temperatures will shorten open times and set times. |
