Curing Properties
Ambient surface moisture will initiate the hardening process. Handling strength is reached in a short period of time and varies depending on environmental conditions and substrates being bonded. Product will continue to cure for at least 24 hours before full strength and resistances are developed.
Setting Time (68F, 65% R.H.)
Steel
50 to 70 seconds
Aluminum
30 to 60 seconds
Neoprene
20 to 30 seconds
ABS
25 to 50 seconds
Polycarbonate
50 to 75 seconds
PVC
20 to 35 seconds
Curing Performance
The gap of the bond line will affect set speed. Smaller gaps tend to increase the speed. Activators can be applied to improve set speed but may also impair overall adhesive performance.

General Instructions
Surfaces to be bonded should be clean and dry. Dispense a drop or drops to one surface only. Apply only enough to leave a thin film layer after compression.
Press parts together and hold firmly for a few seconds. Good contact is essential. An adequate bond develops in less that one minute and maximum strength is attained in 24 hours. Wipe off excess adhesive from the top of the container and recap. Cyanoacrylate products if left uncapped may deteriorate by contamination from moisture in the air. Because Cyanoacrylate products cure by polymerization, whitening may appear on the surface of the container or the bonded materials. Should this happen, wipe surfaces well with acetone.

General Information
Storage
Refrigeration at 40°F provides optimum storage stability.
Note
Prior to use, remove all surface contaminants such as oil or grease. Products like isopropyl alcohol can be used. Test compatibility of cleaner with substrate. Make sure surface is completely dry before bonding.
Health & Safety in use
CAUTION: SuperGlues bond skin and eyes on contact. If accidental skin bonding occurs, wash area with warm soapy water and slowly pry skin apart using a blunt object (such as a teaspoon handle.) In case of eye contact, bathe immediately with water and seek immediate medical attention.
