Areas of Application
Sikasil® AS-785 is especially designed for fast and/or automated bonding of structural adhesive joints. Especially for interior or exterior applications where a high mechanical performance under harsh conditions are required, like in appliances, solar and automotive. Common substrates are metals, particularly aluminum, glass, metal primers and paint coatings (2-part systems), ceramic materials and plastics. This product is suitable for experienced professional users only. Tests with actual substrates and conditions have to be performed ensuring adhesion and material compatibility.
Surface preparation
Surfaces must be clean, dry and free from grease, oil and dust. Surface treatment depends on the specific nature of the substrates and is crucial for a long lasting bond.
Application
Before processing Sikasil® AS-785 both components have to be mixed homogeneously and air-bubble-free in the correct ratio as indicated with an accuracy of ± 10 %. Most commercially available metering and mixing equipment are suitable.
