Repair Instructions for Bonded Seals

1. - General information on handling rubber seal profiles:
-
If seals reveal partly detached protective film on delivery, they must not be bonded.
-
Store seals at 15 °C to 25 °C.
-
If, during the handling, the protective film has come off before bonding, it can still be bonded.
-
Bonding at room and object temperature >20 °C. Temperatures between 40 and 50 °C significantly increase initial adhesion.
-
Seals, which are subjected to temperatures above 80 °C after gluing, will be very difficult to remove.
2. - Damage pattern and repair
