ARALDITE® 5864 A/B

• Withstands exposure to water and a wide variety of chemicals
• Gap-filling, non-sagging up to 0.2 inch (5 mm) thickness
• Bonds well to a wide variety of substrates

ARALDITE® 5864 A/B Epoxy Adhesive mix is applied with a spatula to the pre-treated and dry joint surfaces. A layer of adhesive 0.002 to 0.004-inches (0.05 to 0.10-mm) thick will normally impart the greatest lap shear strength to a joint. The joint components should be assembled and clamped as soon as the adhesive has been applied. Even contact throughout suffices to ensure proper cure

Recommended Cure Cycles

• ARALDITE® 5864 A/B mix is applied with a spatula to the pre-treated and dry joint surfaces.
• A layer of adhesive 0.002 to 0.004-inches (0.05 to 0.10-mm) thick will normally impart the greatest lap shear strength to a joint.
• The joint components should be assembled and clamped as soon as the adhesive has been applied.
• Even contact throughout suffices to ensure proper cure.

• Unless otherwise stated, the data were determined with typical production batches using standard test methods.
• They are typical values only, and do not constitute a product specification.
• The values given below were all 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, unless otherwise specified.
• The joint area was 0.5 x 1 inch (12.5 mm x 2.5 cm) in each case.

¹⁾ Effects of cure time and temperature: tested at 25°C (77°F)
²⁾ Effects of test temperature: load applied 10 min after reaching test temperature
³⁾ Effects of immersion: cure cycle 16 hrs. at 40°C (104°F). Immersion for 90 days in media listed.
⁴⁾ Effects of tropical exposure: (40°C/104°F/92% R.H.), tested at 25°C (77°F).
⁵⁾ Effects of heat aging: cured 16 hours at 104°F/40°C
⁶⁾ Cured 16 hours at 104°C (40°C).
⁷⁾ Surface degreased only, not roughened.
