  • Best Practices for Henkel Armstrong A-271

    *See Terms of Use Below

    1. Surface Preparation

      Surfaced to be bonded should be clean and dry. For critical applications refer to Bulletin No. 964.

    2. Application

      Apply the adhesive to surfaces to be bonded (preferably both surfaces) and press together. Light clamping may be used to keep parts in position during cure.

    3. Mixing

      Bring both components to room temperature prior to mixing.

      Cartridge format: Mixer should be attached keeping the cartridge vertical and any air pocket purged this way. After the mixer contains material, the mixer tip can be dropped to dispense pre-bleed amount. Attach a new static mixer with each cartridge, then pre-bleed the first 3 inches of dispensed material or until a uniform color is obtained. Maintain adequate velocity during dispensing to ensure complete mixing.

      Bulk format: weigh and mix parts A and B accurately and thoroughly, scraping sides of container often. Do not pour from mixing container, transfer to a new container as residual unmixed material may cause a tacky spot on the surface of the casting. Maintain adequate velocity during dispensing to ensure complete mixing.

    4. Curing

      Allow to cure undisturbed until product is fully gelled or tack-free to the touch.

    5. Clean-Up

      Clean up uncured resin with suitable organic solvent such as MEK, acetone or other organic solvent.
