Directions for use of Autostic

Surfaces to be bonded should be dry, clean and grease free.
Stir well before use to obtain a uniform light grey colour.
Choose a grade of suitable viscosity to fill the gaps completely, apply to one surface, bring the two surfaces together and clamp the joint.

Autostic curing

Cure will take place at ambient temperatures but it may take up to 48 hours with the thinner grades, depending on the application. Where possible it is recommended that assemblies be heated to speed up cure. An initial temperature of 70º to 80 ºc is ideal. A post cure at higher temperatures can sometimes improve the properties.

Autostic Packaging

Autostic is available in 500gm and 3kilo containers. FC8 is also available in 500gm cartridge form.

Autostic Storage

Store material in original containers only. A shelf life of 1 year can be expected if stored in conditions of between +5 and+25ºc

Autostic FS is a single component inorganic adhesive for bonding metals and other low absorbant materials which are required to withstand high temperatures. It is faster curing than Autostic FC and is more appropriate for some bonding applications, and particularly with less absorbent substrates.

Autostic FS Product Benefits

* single component
* withstands temperatures up to 1100° c
* non toxic
* non hazardous
* solvent resistant
* acid resistant

Certificates

Autostic holds the following certificates:
BS 476 part 4 non combustible material (Warrington Fire Research Centre)
DIN 4102 Class A1 (building industry) Non destructability

Autostic FS Directions for use

Surfaces to be bonded should be dry,clean and grease free. Depending on the area to be covered the adhesive can either be applied directly with the cartridge gun nozzle or dispensed in patches and then spread with a spatula or similar tool. When bonding non absorbent surfaces the adhesive need only be applied to one surface. Because of the faster setting of FS when bonding large or absorbent substrates it is advisable to apply the adhesive to both surfaces and in some circumstances it may be desirable to use lower viscosity Autostic products[.Refer to manufacturer for further advise]


Autostic curing

Cure will take place at ambient temperatures but it may take up to 12 hours with lower temperatures. Where possible it is recommended that assemblies be heated to speed up cure. An initial temperature of 70 to 80 °c is ideal. A post cure at higher temperatures can sometimes improve the properties.

ADHAESIUM

TECHNICAL DATA SHEET

ADHAESIUM [Standard]
Standard Adhaesium is a cold setting, adhesive impregnated fabric; designed for secure fixing of heavy machines to most types of flooring, without the need for special tools or preparation.

Typical Applications

Lathes
Milling Machines
Drilling Machines
Heavy Pumps
Pumps


ADHAESIUM [light]
Adhaesium light is an alternative concept using a tough fabric and a separate adhesive paste. It attains optimum bond strength quicker than standard Adhaesium and is particularly suitable for fixing lighter machines.

Typical Applications of Adhaesium

Pumps & Compressors
Conveyors
Lightweight Machines
Product benefits

No specialist knowledge or tools necessary
Much reduced installation costs compared with bolting
Positive alignment with minimal effort
Reduction in vibration and noise transmission
No permanent damage to floors
Quick and easy relocation of machines
Physical properties

Descriptionof Adhaesium: A tough non- woven polymer fabric either impregnated with a liquid adhesive or coated with a viscous adhesive paste.
Toxicity: Non toxic and Non hazardous
Flashpoint: >100°c
Shelf life: minimum 12 months


Cured Properties of Adhaesium

Average Tensile[z- axis] Strength: 0.42 Mpa. [60 psi]
Average Shear bond stregth: 0.87 Mpa. [129 psi]
Temperature range: -180°c to + 1150°c

Packaging of Adhaesium

Standard Adhaesium is sold in plastic pails containing a 2mtr x 10cm length of impregnated fabric.
Adhaesium Light is sold in plastic pails containing 2mtr x 10cm of fabric and 500gm adhesive paste.

Directions for use of Adhaesium

1. Clean floor and base of machine to remove any oil,grease,water or dust.
2. Measure the mounting feet or standing faces of the machine and determine the bonding area of Adhaesium required. Where possible it is recommended that the machine load should be less than 10 psi particularly if any vibration insulation is required.
3. Mark out on the floor the location of the machine and its Adhaesium bonding strips [or pads]. These should be arranged to project about 12mm round the feet or baseplate of the machine.
4. Using standard type; Pull out some of the impregnated strip felt from the centre of the roll of Adhaesium and cut strips to the requirements determined in 3 and place in position on floor.
Using light type ; Cut strips of Adhaesium fabric as above; spread with adhesive paste on one side {using wooden spatula provided} and bond to floor incorrect position. Now apply a layer of adhesive paste to upper side of strip.
5. Lower the machine onto the pre laid strips.{if the machine cannot be 'lowered into position'. then each edge may be levered up in turn and the Adhaesium compound laid underneath it.
6. The Adhaesium will take time to develop its optimum tensile bond, but after 24 hours the lateral stability will be sufficient to allow the machine to be operated without movement.
7. If the conditions in which the machine is to operate are damp or likely to get wet, then the projecting edges of the compound should be covered with a bitumous type sealing compound.
8. To release the mountings [if moving machines];pour boiling water or apply steam to the mountings and leave to soak for 30 mins. Before lifting the machine.If the edges of the pads have been sealed cut off exposed edges before applying water.
