Hysol ® H6000       Email
Methacrylate Adhesive
Description
Dexter Hysol H6000 is a sag-resistant, white, 10:1 methacrylate adhesive designed specifically for secondary bonding of gelcoats. This bright white adhesive retains its color after prolonged UV light exposure making it ideal for visible bonding areas. It also bonds to a variety of plastics such as FRP, PVC, and ABS with minimum surface preparation.

Recommended Substrates: Gelcoated FRP, many plastics and metals (Always use Hysol Primer 2000 when bonding metals such as aluminum , steel or stainless steel to improve long term durability.)

Features
Superior UV Resistance                                                          Superior impact and peel strength
Sag resistant/gaps filled to 1/2 inch                                      Rapid room temperature cure
Offers excellent tolerance to off-ratio mixing                    Non-yellowing bright white 100% reactive
Excellent environmental resistance

Handling and Application
Mixing: It is highly recommended that either meter mix equipment or cartridges with static mix nozzles be used
to properly ratio and dispense the adhesive.  For hand mixing, combine Part A and Part B in the correct ratio
and mix thoroughly. This is important!  Heat buildup during and after mixing is normal.  To reduce the likelihood of exothermic reaction or excessive heat buildup, mix  less than 100 grams at a time.  Mixing smaller amounts will minimize heat buildup.

Applying: Bonding surfaces should be clean, dry, and free of contamination.  Extensive surface preparation is not required for H6000, and good bonds can be formed on most substrates after a solvent wipe.  To assure maximum bond strength, surfaces must be mated within the adhesive's open time.  Bondline thickness should be at least 30 mils. Use enough material to completely fill the joint when parts are clamped.

Curing: Parts should remain undisturbed during the interval of time between the material's open time and
fixture time.  After the fixture time is achieved the material has reached handling strength.  Temperature below
55°F will slow the cure; above 85°F will accelerate cure rate.

Clean Up: It is important to clean up excess adhesive from the work area and application equipment before it
cures.  Denatured alcohol and many common industrial solvents are suitable for removing uncured adhesive.  
Hysol H6000 is flammable.  Keep containers tightly closed after use.  Keep away from heat, sparks, and open
flames.

Storage: Hysol adhesives should be stored in a cool, dry place when not used for a long period of time. The shelf life for H6000 is one year from date of manufacture when stored at 40°F and six months when stored at 77°F.  Exposure above room temperature will reduce shelf life.
