ES6259 is well suited for a wide variety of commercial and industrial applications where its high bond strengths provide excellent service. ES6259 is a very good adhesive for bonding reinforced plastics to itself and to metal, and for composite structures, due to its tough cure and ability to bond dissimilar surfaces. The moisture resistant nature of ES6259 is such thatit will cure even underwater. This feature has enabled it to be used extensively in the repairing of water reservoirs, either underwater or on the surface, and the patching and repairing of drainage ditches, concrete pipe and transite. It has also been used for various assemblies and repairs on offshore drilling rigs, and numerous marine applications.
- Directions For Use
- All surfaces to be bonded or patched must be free of dirt, oil, grease, rust and corrosion.
- For best bond strength, roughen all surfaces to be repaired or bonded. The rougher the surface, the better the bond.
- Mix A and B components at the proper ratio until uniform in color and consistency. After mixing, ES6259 must be used within one hour.
- lf the area to be patched is underwater, place mixed material ina plastic bag and then take underwater the area to be patched. Remove ES6259 from bag and displace water from damaged area by pressing mixed material firmly into the area to be repaired.
- If area to be bonded is not underwater, apply mixed maierial to roughened area to be bonded. Press firmly together and let set for 4 hours at 75°F. If necessary, p movement during initial curing time. lace in ajig or other holding device to prevent
- When patching holes over 1 inch deep, fill halfway and allow to partially cure for 45-60 min. at 75°F. Then complete the filling of the hole and smooth the surface.
