Whether you're undertaking intricate craft projects, essential household repairs, or demanding industrial applications, E6000 provides dependable adhesion that stands the test of time. This clear formula is paintable and even photo-safe, conforming to ASTM D4236 for safety. Made in the USA, this 3.7 oz tube is a reliable solution for all your bonding needs.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• Exceptional Bond Strength: Forms a very strong and lasting connection on a wide variety of materials.
• Superior Flexibility: Dries to a rubber-like consistency, allowing it to move with the bonded materials and resist cracking or breaking, especially beneficial for items subject to vibration.
• Broad Material Compatibility: Effectively bonds to wood, metal, glass, fiberglass, ceramics, masonry, concrete, leather, rubber, vinyl, and most plastics, offering wide application possibilities.
• Environmental Resistance: Provides strong resistance to water (can be submerged after full cure), dilute acids, and dilute caustics, making it suitable for challenging environments.
• Temperature Resilience: Maintains a stable bond in extreme hot and cold temperatures, ranging from -40°F to 180°F (-40°C to 82°C) intermittently.
• Self-Leveling Medium Viscosity: Allows for smooth application and can even be used as a potting material in certain electrical and computer uses.
• Paintable Finish: The clear adhesive can be painted to match surrounding colors for improved UV resistance and seamless integration into projects.
• Non-Flammable Formula: Enhances safety during application.

• Included in Package: One 3.7 oz tube of E6000 Multi-Purpose Adhesive.

HOW TO USE:

• Prepare Surfaces: Ensure all surfaces to be bonded are clean, dry, and free from dirt, grease, or oil. Lightly roughen smooth surfaces for better adhesion if necessary.
• Ventilation: Use the adhesive in a well-ventilated area. Consider wearing gloves and a mask to minimize exposure to fumes.
• Application: Apply the E6000 adhesive directly to one or both surfaces. For maximum bond strength, apply thin coats to both surfaces, allow to partially cure for 2-10 minutes, then press surfaces together firmly.
• Positioning: You will have approximately 2 minutes to reposition the items once they are pressed together before the adhesive starts to become tacky.
• Securing: Clamp or hold items together if possible until the bond sets. Initial set typically occurs within 10 minutes.
• Curing: Allow the adhesive to cure fully for 24 to 72 hours to achieve maximum bond strength. Curing time can vary based on temperature and humidity. Higher temperatures can slightly speed up the drying process.
• Cleanup (Uncured): Immediately clean any uncured adhesive with acetone or citrus-based solvents.
• Cleanup (Cured): Cured E6000 can be removed by cutting or scraping.
