Technical Data Sheet
DESCRIPTION & USES: | |
---|---|
Elastotec CVLA | Is a two component, room temperature curing solvent based adhesive that, when cured with CVLA Hardener, yields high strength bonds. |
Elastotec CVLA | Has been formulated to provide high strength rubber tear bonds with the CN Bonding layer used on Elastotec pulley lagging. |
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS: | |
---|---|
Elastotec CVLA | Bonding system is comprised of an adhesive and hardener in the ratio of 5% by weight (900 grams of Elastotec CVLA to 45 grams of CVLA Hardener).
These two components must be thoroughly mixed (hand stirred for two minutes until uniform). Inaccuracies and poor mixing will result in lower physical properties of the cured system. The mixed adhesive should be used within 4 hours. |
SURFACE PREPARATION: | |
---|---|
Elastotec CVLA |
All surfaces must be clean, dry and free of oil, paint and other contamination.
THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT TO OBTAINING THE MAXIMUM ADHESION STRENGTH

COATING METHOD OF APPLICATION: | |
---|---|
IMPORTANT NOTE: Avoid heavy builds, puddles, uneven coating. Surfaces must dry uniformly. The first applied coating must be uniform light blue colour – no black/grey streaks visible. This will mean continuing to apply the adhesive over the pulley/lagging surface after the initial application has dried. Application by spraying is not recommended. |
