Adhesives and Installation Instructions

Section I - Series 77

Glenair provides application guides and assembly instructions to support operators who have been trained in the installation of heat shrinkable products, as well as in the the use of special adhesives such as two-part epoxy—the most eff ecient and eff ective adhesive we supply due to its superior bond strength, higher temperature range and better chemical resistance compared to hot melt adhesive. Please note that Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) are available here.

About User-Installed Epoxy

Epoxy adhesive provides superior bond strength, higher temperature range and better chemical resistance compared to hot melt adhesive. Glenair supplies both type R one-part epoxy pre-coating as well as user installed two part epoxy–which offers several advantages including reduced boot installation time and an easier installation process. Pre-coated boots require additional care to install because the boot must be heated sufficiently to activate the epoxy, at the risk of overheating the overall assembly. User-installed epoxy has a four hour pot life, and only a small amount is necessary, so a single 50 ml duo syringe can coat many boots. The duo syringe can be re-capped for re-use. Inexpensive mixing nozzles must be discarded after each use. NOTE: Glenair high-performance two part epoxy meets VG95343 part 15.
