Technical Information

CURE MECHANISM

The curing of SikaForce®-315 takes place by chemical reaction of the two components. It cures at ambient temperature. The curing speed can be accelerated by temperature (max. up to 60 °C) using infrared lamps or ovens, e.g. 10 °C higher temperatures would result in approx. doubling the curing speed and cutting in half the pot-life.

Application

Method of Application

Surface Preparation

Lightly abrade metal and plastic substrates. Clean and de-grease the surfaces before applying adhesive. Additional surface treatment depends on the specific nature of the substrates.  The above information is offered for general guidance only. Advice on specific applications will be given on request.

Application

SikaForce®-315 can be dispensed from the dual mini syringes without the need for an applicator gun. In order to achieve a proper mixing, Mixer Tips (provided with product or sold separately) are required.

Extrude adhesive without mixer to equalize the filling levels, attach the mixer and dispose of the first few cm of the bead. SikaForce®-315 has to be processed between 10 °C and 30 °C (product, ambient, and substrate temperature).

Removal

Uncured SikaForce®-315 may be removed from tools and equipment with Sika® Remover-208 or other suitable solvents. Once cured, the material can only be removed mechanically. Hands and exposed skin shall be washed immediately using a suitable industrial hand cleaner. Do not use solvents on skin.
