4. Curing Performance

  • Fixture time varies based on substrate:

    • Steel (grit blasted): 7 – 15 sec
    • Aluminum (grit blasted): 10 – 20 sec
    • Polycarbonate: 5 – 10 sec
    • Rubber (nitrile): 10 – 15 sec
    • Paper: ≤15 sec
    • Wood (teak): 50 – 90 sec
  • Full cure: 24 hours at 22°C

  • Cure speed depends on bond gap and humidity
