How to
Step by Step Guide
1. Preparation - Cleaning
It is recommended to use LOCTITE® SF 7063/7064 to clean and degrease surfaces prior to bonding. Ensure the cleaning solvent is compatible with the materials to be bonded and has dried prior to adhesive application.
2. Preparation - Activation
Apply LOCTITE®SF 7455 or LOCTITE® SF 7458 activator to the bond area, by spray, brush or dipping. Allow the activator time to evaporate, under good ventilation, until the surfaces are completely dry (approx. 15 to 30 seconds).
3. Application & Assembly
Apply LOCTITE® 382 to the bond area and assemble the parts. Where possible, move surfaces in relation to each other for a few seconds to distribute the adhesive and for maximum activation. Secure the assembly and await fixturing before any further handling. If necessary excess product can be cured by activator LOCTITE® SF 7455 or LOCTITE® SF 7458.
