OB-101
OMEGABOND® Epoxy adhesive
Page 3
General Description
OMEGA’s OB-101 Epoxy Cement is a versatile, room temperature cure,
two-part epoxy cement. It is designed to permanently bond OMEGA’s
CO series, cement-on and beaded wire thermocouples, and other
sensors to a wide variety of materials. OB-101 has many exceptional
characteristics including:
• Resists temperatures to 221°F (105°C)
• Resists oil, solvents and most acids
• Heat conductive and tensile shear resistant
• Excellent electrical insulator
• Excellent mechanical bonding characteristics
• Adheres to most surfaces
®
OMEGABOND
OB-101 Epoxy Cement may be used with many
materials including aluminum, steel, various stainless steels, copper,
brass, black iron, wood, porcelain, brick, paper products, PVC, PVDC,
polycarbonate, neoprene, cellulose acetate, hand board, and most
plated surfaces.
Handling Information
CAUTION
• Avoid prolonged breathing of vapors - work in well ventilated area
• Protect skin against contamination
• Protect eyes against contamination
• Do not take internally
Shelf Life: OMEGA’s OB-101 has a shelf life of one year when stored in
unopened, tightly sealed containers at 70°F.
Solvent
Methylene chloride may be used to remove excess OB-101 before
curing. After curing, methylene chloride may also be used to dissolve
the epoxy, but with greater difficulty.
Directions For Use
1. Clean the surfaces to be bonded with solvents or detergents. Plastic
surfaces should be lightly sanded.
2. When using OB-101 Cement in can kits, dispense, as indicated
below, parts by volume or weight of resin and hardener on a mixing
surface side by side. Blend thoroughly, using a mixing stick, until the
mixture is uniform in texture and color.
Mix Ratio: 100 parts of Part A
100 parts of Part B (by volume)
180 parts of Part B (by weight)

Directions For Use (cont’d)
3. If supplied in twin packs, remove partition dividers, blend and mix
the two parts together within the pouch by kneading. After mixing
thoroughly (mixture should be uniform in texture and color), snip off
comer of pack to dispense.
4. Apply the thixotropic, off-white mixture to the clean surfaces and
bring them together, squeezing out the excess. Only contact pressure
is normally required.
Curing
Allow about four hours for initial set at room temperature (75°F, 24°C).
Full cure will develop during the following 24 hours. Cure may be
accelerated by moderate heat.
