Chemlok® 213 adhesive is a one-coat adhesive used to bond castable and RIM urethane elastomers to metal. It is composed of a mixture of polymers, curatives and pigments dissolved in an organic solvent system.
Chemlok 213 adhesive can also be used to bond a wide variety of both polyether and polyester castable urethanes to metal, as well as bond certain thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPU).
Features and Benefits:
• Versatile - bonds metal to a wide variety of polyether and polyester castable urethanes of varying hardness, based on both TDI and MDI.
• Economical - eliminates the need to inventory several adhesives due to the adhesive's versatility.
• Convenient - requires only a single coat for most applications, minimizing application costs; bonds RIM urethane elastomers directly to aluminum or steel without the need for primers or prebaking.
• Process Compatible - accommodates a wide range of processing conditions, including extended prebake.
• Environmentally Resistant - adds durability for harsh environment exposure, including salt spray and water and temperature exposures, when used with Chemlok 219 primer.
• Time Saving- requires no agitation in preparation for use or during application, saving application time and reducing the potential for application errors. Non-settling Chemlok 213 adhesive is ready to dip or brush when opened.
• Fast Drying - dries fast to allow rapid turnaround times, reducing the number of coated parts kept in inventory.
• Durable - provides bond strengths greater than the tear strength of the urethane substrate.
Elastomers:
• Millable Urethane
• Castable Urethane
• Thermoplastic Urethane (TPU)
Shelf Life/Storage:
Shelf life is one year from date of shipment when stored by the recipient at 21-27°C (70-80°F) in original, unopened container. Do not store or use near heat, sparks or open flame.
