Omschrijving
The Technicoll 8055 contact adhesive is based on polychloroprene, and is used for assembling materials such as rubber, leather, textile and cork with materials such as metal, wood and PUR-foam. An example is placing a zipper on a neoprene diving suit. The adhesive is instant and can obtain a long term adhesion. The glue is also water and heat resistance. This adhesive is ideal for absorbing surfaces.
Joint surfaces have to be dry and clean, but mostly free of oil, grease or solvents. In many cases, sanding the surface beforehand will strengthen the connection. This adhesive is mostly recommended for gluing rubbers and metals. Stir the glue before using. Apply a thin and even layer of Technicoll 8055 with a brush or a glue gun on both sides of the joint surfaces. After applying the glue, the solvent has to evaporate fully. The usual waiting time is a few minutes, depending on the applied amount of glue and the climate. The right moment to glue the components, is when the contact adhesive shows no more threads by touching a finger, but still feels sticky. Combine the substrates precisely together and mount quickly under high pressure. The quick and good adhesion which is typical for this adhesive, shows immediate further processing with the combined substances. Wait a few days until you determine the actual strength.
