Versilok® 281/331 adhesive is a two-component, epoxy-modified acrylic adhesive used to bond a variety of automotive sheet metals, including hot-dip galvanized, electro-galvanized, bare aluminum, and cold rolled steel. Versilok 281/331 adhesive can be either room temperature cured or heat cured for faster processing.
Features and Benefits:
• Strong Mechanical Lock – contains glass beads which provide a mechanical lock that will prevent shifting of substrate panels.
• Easy to Apply – utilizes non-sagging rheology; replaces he need for spot welding which degrades metal and allows rusting to occur.
• High Impact Resistant – delivers excellent dynamic resistance to cleavage under ISO 11343:2003.
• Low Temperature Cure – develops a high strength bond in one hour at room temperature, eliminating metal warpage caused by high curing induction temperatures. Induction heating should be conducted at 110°C (230°F) or below.
• Bonds Unprepared Metals – bonds exceptionally well through the various stamping lubricants typically present on metals, eliminating the need for advance cleaning and surface preparation.
• Environmentally Resistant – provides excellent resistance to moisture, sunlight, salt spray and thermal cycling; sustains short exposure to postbakes up to 204°C (400°F).
Shelf Life/Storage:
Shelf life is six months from date of shipment when stored at 25°C (77°F) in original, unopened container.
