WEICON Repair Sticks

durable, versatile, high strength

Easy to use:
Cut off - knead - use
Always the right portion, even for small repairs.

WEICON Repair StickThe uncomplicated solution for all repair and maintenance work.

WEICON Repair Sticks are temperature resistant -50°C (-58°F) up to +120°C (+248°F), briefly up to +150°C (+302°F). They resist to alcohol, ester, salt water, oils, most acids and lyes, are free of solvents and cure with almost no shrinkage.

The cured product can be machined (drilled, filed, tapped) and overpainted without pre-treatment.

WEICON Repair Sticks bond:

  • metal
  • hard-plastics*
  • fibre-reinforced materials
  • wood
  • glass / ceramic / stone

* Except for plastics such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polyacetal, polytetrafluoroethylene and other fluorinated hydrocarbons with naturally adhesive-rejecting surfaces.

For various applications there are nine different Repair Sticks to chose from.

Instructions for use

To ensure a perfect bond, the surfaces to be joined must be clean and dry (e.g., clean and degrease using Cleaner S or Plastic Cleaner). Smooth surfaces should be roughened, e.g. by sandblasting.

WEICON Repair StickWEICON Repair-Sticks cover gaps of max. 15 mm per procedure. The pot life given is for a material quantity of 25 g at room temperature. If larger quantities are used, the curing time will be faster due to the typical reaction heat of epoxy resins (exothermic reaction).
Similarly, higher ambient temperatures shorten the cure time (as a rule of thumb, every +10°C increase above room temperature will halve working and curing time). Temperatures below +16°C will extend working and curing times considerably, while below about +5°C, no reaction will take place at all.

Physiological properties / health and safety at work

WEICON Repair Sticks, when properly handled and completely cured, are toxicologically essentially harmless. When using these adhesives, the physical, safety technical, toxicological and ecological data and regulations in our EC safety data sheets must be observed.

Storage

When kept at a constant room temperature of about +20°C and unopened in dry conditions, WEICON Repair Sticks will keep for at least 18 months. Avoid direct sunlight.

Important Note:
All specifications, recommendations and techncial data are based on laboratory tests under optimum conditions resp. on practical experience. They have been compiled most carefully. Nevertheless, a claim cannot be derived from them. We therefore recommend to carry out own tests before application. The user bears the only responsibility for non-appropriate or other than specified applications.
