Thoroughly clean and degrease the bonding surfaces with a suitable product, such as SW 305.

Apply a small amount of SW 396 to one of the two surfaces and join the parts with light pressure. The fixture time depends on the material and ambient conditions.

To speed up polymerization in unfavorable conditions, an activator may be used. On materials such as PTFE, silicone or polyethylene, a specific primer is required.

For safety information, consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) available on request.

The product can be ordered in the following packaging:

• 50 ml bottle - box of 10 pieces
