PREPARATION AND APPLICATION

Ensure that the surfaces to be bonded are smooth, clean and free from dust or other deposits.

Aro-Bond® 561 should be applied evenly to one substrate, preferably to the less porous substrate, using a brush, hand roller or mechanical roller. Adhesive coverage between 250g per m2 are suitable depending on the porosity of the surfaces to be bonded. It should be noted that adhesive spread has considerable influence on both assembly and setting times.

Lay the items to be bonded together within the workable time and press them for as long a time as is needed to achieve the required handling strength. The pressure should be high enough to ensure contact of the parts over the entire area of the joint. Allow 24 hours for full strength to develop.

Aro-Bond® 561, like all other EVA adhesives, may tend to show structuring especially in cold conditions. This effect is generally reversible on slight stirring. Additionally, there may be some increase in viscosity, but this will not detract from the application properties or performance.

Handling and Storage

Clean machines, equipment and tools with water before the adhesive dries.

Aro-Bond® 561 should be stored in the original containers in a cool, dry place, at a temperature range of between 5°C and 30°C. In these conditions it has a storage life of 6 months. Aro-Bond® 561 must not be allowed to freeze and ideally should be warmed to at least 15°C before use.
