HARDMAN® High-Peel-Strength Epoxy

DOUBLE/BUBBLE® Orange Package #04007

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

HARDMAN High-Peel-Strength Epoxy is a semi–rigid, two–
component structural epoxy adhesive. It develops an
excellent combination of shear strength and peel strength
with only a room temperature cure. It has excellent shock
resistance, vibration resistance and impact strength.

HARDMAN High-Peel-Strength Epoxy is recommended for the
following substrates:

Metal Plastic Other

Carbon Steel PVC Rubber

Stainless Steel Polystyrene Stone

Aluminum Nylon Wood

Copper/Brass Glass

Tin China

Zinc Leather

TYPICAL USES

HARDMAN High-Peel-Strength Epoxy can be used to repair
sports equipment, marine, aircraft, auto, truck and tractor
parts. It is an excellent adhesive for grinding wheel hubs,
industrial parts, and door and window gaskets.

PACKAGING

The DOUBLE/BUBBLE package is a handy, dual-pouch, one­shot, job-size packaging concept. It reduces the waste
typically associated with the use of larger quantities of two­component adhesives. This unique packaging ensures that
DOUBLE/BUBBLE adhesives are always factory fresh and
accurately portioned for optimum adhesive performance.

HARDMAN High-Peel-Strength Epoxy is also available in poly
bottles, 1-gallon cans, 5-gallon pails and 55- gallon drums.

HOW TO USE

Surface must be clean and dry before application. Remove all
chemicals, dirt, wax and oil.

STORAGE AND HANDLING

Store DOUBLE/BUBBLE adhesives at room temperature in a
dry environment. Extreme low temperatures may cause
crystallization. Extreme high temperatures may degrade the
properties.

A wide variety of cleaning solutions are available for cured and
uncured epoxies and polyurethanes
