Assembly strength
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Porsche Macan and 2015 Porsche Macan. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Information
- The object temperature must be above the minimum hardening temperature for the entire specified time period .
- If the minimum hardening temperature could not be reached within the specified time period, the standing time must be increased or additional heat must be applied to the bonded joint .
- If the hardening temperature is significantly less than the minimum hardening temperature, this can cause irreversible damage to the bonded joint. This will have a negative effect on the strength of the bonded joint .
Information
- Once the required assembly strength is reached, the vehicle must be removed from the straightening system. Assembly work can then be performed .
The vehicle must not be moved and no further work must be carried out on the vehicle following repair bonding for at least → Hardening time at 20°C: 12 h .
The standing time can be shortened by applying heat. E.g. → Hardening time at 50°C: 8 h .
