Best Practices for 3M Adhesive Transfer Tape 9482PC
-
Surface Preparation
Ideal adhesive application temperature range is 70°F to 100°F (21°C to 38°C).
However, once properly applied, low temperature holding is satisfactory.
Bond strength can also be improved with firm application pressure and moderate heat (for metal surfaces only), from 100°F (38°C) to 130°F (54°C), causing the adhesive to develop intimate contact with the bonding surfaces.
-
Surface Preparation
For maximum bond strength the surface should be thoroughly cleaned and dried. Typical cleaning solvents are heptane or isopropyl alcohol.
