Features & Benefits

• Strong Mechanical Lock – contains glass beads which provide a mechanical lock that will prevent shifting of substrate panels.
• Easy to Apply – utilizes non-sagging rheology; replaces the need for spot welding which degrades metal and allows rusting to occur.
• Low Temperature Cure – develops a high strength bond in less than one hour at room temperature, eliminating metal warpage caused by high curing induction temperatures.
• Bonds Unprepared Metals – bonds exceptionally well through the various stamping lubricants typically present on metals, eliminating the need for advance cleaning and surface preparation.
• Environmentally Resistant – provides excellent resistance to moisture, sunlight, salt spray and thermal cycling; sustains short exposure to postbakes.

Applications

• Liftgates
• Tailgates
• Trunk Lids
• Doors
• Hoods
