Best Practices for 3M TE200

*See Terms of Use Below
1. 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.
2. 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
Fast
2.00 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.

Viscosity Test Methods

Viscosity	Test Method	Temperature
3,000 cPs	Brookfield viscometer with Thermosel using spindle #27.	121°C
Low
Extrudable

Work / Pot Time Test Methods

Work / Pot Time	Test Method
Long
4.00 min	The bonding range of a 1/8" bead of molten adhesive on a non-metallic substrate.
