ES6228 is a thin paste viscosity epoxy adhesive designed to provide good bonds to metal surfaces. A unique feature of ES6228 is its ability to bond to slightly oily metal surfaces. this is useful in situations where the complete removal of residual mill oil on metal surfaces is not possible. The thin paste consistency of ES6228 wets the metal surface well, for good adhesion. this viscosity also provides some gap filling capabilities, so "close-fitting" joints are adequate, and matched-metal joints are not required. ES6228 has a 1 to 1 mix ratio, by weight or volume, for easy measuring. The white resin and black hardener combine to a smooth gray system that is easy to mix and apply. The cured material has very good properties, with high bond strength and elongation, for tough, durable assemblies. |
