Assembly Strength

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 (approx. 10 °C), this can cause irreversible damage to the bonded joint. This can 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 18 °C: 12 h  (leave to harden overnight).

The standing time can be shortened by applying heat. E.g. → Hardening time at 60 °C: 35 min  .
