Storage & Handling
- Storage Conditions
Araldite® CW 5801-1/Aradur® HY 5801 components should be stored in a dry place and in the sealed original containers at temperatures between 2°C and 40°C (36°F and 104°F). Under these storage conditions the shelf life for each product is 1 year. The products should not be exposed to direct sunlight. Some filler separation may occur in the Araldite® CW 5801- 1 component during storage. Prior to use it should be re-homogenized by gentle stirring to prevent air entrapment.
