Sika launches SikaPower®-1277 a 2-component structural epoxy adhesive, which cures at room temperature. The adhesive is suitable for structural bonding applications in transportation and the general industry.
High-strength, Impact-resistant Bonding
The adhesive is designed for high strength and impact-resistant bonding of metallic substrates, like steel and aluminum, as well as of composite substrates, like GFRP and CFRP laminates.
The adhesive has good non-sag properties and contains glass beads of 0.3 mm to ensure an optimal bonding thickness.
Advantages of SikaPower®-1277
High-structural and high-impact-resistant properties
Contains anti-corrosion agents
Contains glass beads to ensure an optimal bonding thickness
Does not contain solvents or PVC
Cures at room temperature
Accelerated curing and higher mechanical strength with heat
Surfaces must be clean, dry and free from grease, oil and dust. Surface treatment depends on the specific nature of the substrates and is crucial for a long-lasting bond. All pre-treatment steps must be confirmed by preliminary tests on original substrates considering specific conditions in the assembly process.
Adhesive Suitable for Spot Welding, Riveting
The adhesive can also be used for repair applications in combination with spot welding, riveting or clinching. The product is applied as contact adhesive (2-side application). The product is suitable for professional experienced users only. Tests with actual substrates and conditions have to be performed to ensure adhesion and material compatibility.
SikaPower®-1277 is dispensed from dual cartridges with adequate piston guns or from pails with 2-component equipment. If dispensed out of equipment, the mixer needs to be tailored for the specific application.
Uncured SikaPower®-1277 can be removed from tools and equipment with Sika® Remover-208 or another suitable solvent. Once cured, the material can only be removed mechanically. Hands and exposed skin have to be washed immediately using hand wipes or a suitable industrial hand cleaner and water.
SikaPower®-1277 has to be kept between 10°C and 30°C in a dry place. Do not expose to direct sunlight or frost. After the opening of the packaging, the contents have to be protected against humidity.
