ARALDITE® 5049 A/B

• Good adhesion to many materials commonly used in the ski industry
• High strength under static and dynamic loading
• Good environmental resistance to water, ice, and tropical conditions

• Good adhesion to many materials commonly used in the ski industry
• High strength under static and dynamic loading
• Good environmental resistance to water, ice, and tropical conditions

• A layer of adhesive 0.002 in. to 0.004 inches (0.05 mm to 0.10 mm) thick will normally impart the greatest lap shear strength to a joint.
• Joint components should be assembled and clamped as soon as the adhesive has been applied.
• Even contact throughout suffices to ensure proper cure.

• Ski and snowboard lamination
• Archery limb lamination
• Honeycomb core facing

Processing Data

• Ski and snowboard lamination
• Archery limb lamination
• Honeycomb core facing

Unless a different test is specified, the figures given below were determined by testing standard specimens made up by lap-jointing 4-inch x 1-inch x 0.06-inch (10-cm x 2.5-cm x 1.5-mm) strips of aluminum. The joint area was 0.5 inch x 1 inch (12.5 mm x 2.5 cm) in each case. Samples were tested at 77°F (25°C) and cured for 7 days at 77°F (25°C) unless otherwise noted. Property Condition

*Cured at 212°F (100°C) for 15 minutes (load applied 10 minutes after joint reached test temperatures).

• Unless otherwise stated, the data were determined with typical production batches using standard test methods.
