Harmonization Code : 3403.19 | Lubricating Preparations (With 70% or More Petroleum Oils) For Automotive and Other Uses
Main features
- Up to 204 deg C Service
- 2:1 Volumetric Mix Ratio
- 5500 psi Lap Shear
Product Description
ARALDITE 2035 A/B is an extrudable, two-component, room-temperature-curing epoxy structural adhesive for metals, composites and dissimilar-material bonding. It uses a 2:1 volumetric mix ratio for cartridge or meter-mix dispensing and has a 40-minute gel time at 25 deg C for a 100 g mass. The adhesive is designed for service temperatures up to 204 deg C and contains 0.005 in spacer beads. On anodized and primed Aluminum 2024 T3 clad, tensile lap shear is 5500 psi at 25 deg C after a 1-hour cure at 66 deg C under ASTM D1002. Applications include transportation, oil and gas, and general industrial bonding.
