Product Description
Loctite PC 3473 is a fast curing, steel reinforced, two-part epoxy designed for making fast and curable repairs to a variety of metals. This product is typically used in applications with an operating range of -30 °C to 95 °C (-22F to 200F). Typical applications include stripped threads, repairing leaks on pipes and elbows, rebuilding worn shafts and work surfaces in pumps and coating metal surfaces subject to wear.
Directions for use:
Surface Preparation Proper surface preparation is critical to the long-term performance of this product. The exact requirements vary with the severity of the application, expected service life, and initial substrate conditions.
Metal:
Clean, dry and abrade application surface. The more thorough the degree of surface preparation the better the performance of the application. If possible, it is recommended that the surface be grit-blasted to a Near White Metal (SSPC-SP10/NACE No. 2) Standard. For less severe applications, roughening the surface with hand tools is suitable.
Solvent cleaning with a residue-free solvent is recommended at the final step to aid in adhesion.
Application Method:
Apply fully mixed material to the prepared surface . 2. At 25 °C working time is 3 minutes and functional cure time is 10 minutes. If using to rebuild shaft, the following applies:
Machine the worn area down 0.3mm (0.125 in) to produce a square shoulder on part. The material is stronger with a square edge versus a feathered edge.
Machine a spiral cut in bottom of area to be repaired to provide mechanical keying into surface.
Apply excess product to ensure small shrinkage during cure does not produce depression.
Machine the surface to original dimensions prior to full cure, as the product is very wear resistant.
Optimal Storage: 8 °C to 21 °C. Storage below 8 °C or greater than 28 °C can adversely affect product properties. Material removed from containers may be contaminated during use. Do not return product to the original container. Henkel Corporation cannot assume responsibility for product which has been contaminated or stored under conditions other than those previously indicated.
