103 Metal Repair Stick
A single-component repair putty in stick form that hardens rapidly at room temperature after mixing. It is a metal repair adhesive that develops mechanical strength in a short time and can be used for emergency repairs.
- Leaky pipes
- Pump/valve bodies with holes
- Leaky tank seams
- Pipe flanges
Surface preparation
Metal substrates – Hand tools
1. All oil and grease must be removed from the surface using a suitable cleaner such as MEK.
2. All surfaces should be cleaned using a wire brush, metal file, coarse sandpaper, etc.
3. Once abraded, the surface must be degreased and cleaned with MEK or a similar product.
Metal substrates – Mechanical tools
1. All oil and grease must be removed from the surface using a suitable cleaner such as MEK.
2. All surfaces must be mechanically abraded using hand grinders to ISO 8501/4 ST3 (SSPC SP3 ST3).
3. Once abraded, the surface must be degreased and cleaned with MEK or a similar product.
4. All surfaces must be coated before ginger or oxidation appears.
Mixing and application
Before mixing, check the following points
1. Ambient and surface temperature above 5°C (41F°).
2. The product is supplied in stick form, so the base and activator components are pre-measured.
3. Simply detach the required amount of material from the stick and knead the product with gloved hands until the black and grey components have reached a medium consistency.
until the black and grey components become a homogeneous medium grey.
4. Once fully mixed, the product has a useful life of 3 to 5 minutes at 20°C (68F°).
5. Once a homogeneous mixture has been obtained, apply the material by pressing the putty onto the prepared surface.
Drying time
At 20°C (68F°), allow applied materials to harden for the times indicated below before subjecting them to the conditions indicated.
These times will be extended at lower temperatures and reduced at higher temperatures:
– Service life 5 mins
– Machining and light loading 30 mins
– Full cure 1 hour
Color
Mixed material – medium grey
Basic component – dark grey
Activator component – Light grey
Conservation
5 years if unopened and stored under normal dry conditions (15-30°C)
