Permabond ET514 Two-Part Epoxy Adhesive

Permabond ET54 is a 1:1 mixable epoxy adhesive. It has excellent resistance to impact and vibration and is ideal for structural bonding of metal, wood, composites and certain plastics.

The adhesive is high strength and has excellent environmental durability.

Applications

• Structural bonding of metal, wood, composites and certain plastics.

Features

• Adhesion to a wide variety of substrates
• Full cure at room temperature
• Easy to apply
• High shear and peel strength
• Good impact strength

Surface Preparation

• Surfaces should be clean, dry and grease-free before applying the adhesive. Use a suitable solvent (such as acetone or isopropanol) for the degreasing of surfaces.
• Some metals such as aluminium, copper and its alloys will benefit from light abrasion with emery cloth (or similar), to remove the oxide layer.

Directions for Use

1. Dual cartridges:
   a) Insert the cartridge into the application gun and guide the plunger into the cartridge.
   b) Remove the cartridge cap and dispense material until both sides are flowing.
   c) Attach the static mixer to the end of the cartridge and begin dispensing the material.
2. Apply material to one of the substrates.
3. Join the parts. Parts must be joined within 30-50 minutes of mixing the two epoxy components.
4. Large quantities and/or higher temperature will decrease the usable life or pot life.
5. Apply pressure to the assembly by clamping for 2 hours or until handling strength is obtained.
6. Full cure will be obtained after 24 hours at 25°C (77°F). Heat can be used to accelerate the curing process.
