i5 Instant Adhesive - Metal Bonding

i5 Instant Adhesive - Metal Bonding

  • Metal bonder

  • So hot, and yet so cool

SmartAdhesives i5 Instant Adhesive is optimized for metal-to-metal and metal-to-rubber bonding. i5 is compounded with special additives so it can also handle a broader temperature range (-75F to 300F) than most cyanoacrylate adhesives. i5 is good for applications that require a rigid bond of a metal surface that is subject to high heat or extreme colds. i5 cures very quickly (less than 20 seconds) and does not allow time for repositioning of parts.

Application instructions

DIRECTIONS: Clean surfaces to remove all dust, dirt and grease. For highest bond strength, chemical cleaning is advised (use acetone or isopropyl alcohol, depending on substrate). Apply sparingly and spread adhesive thinly and evenly on surface. Immediately join surfaces together with firm pressure until adhesive sets (approx. 20 sec. @ 70˚F). Replace cap when not in use. Store in cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Refrigeration preserves shelf life. Do not use as medical aid.
