Selecting the right option

Using it

Use the jig and knife to cut and join the cord, and bond the joint with the adhesive. Follow the instructions supplied with the kit.

Henkel says the adhesive bonds about as strongly as the rubber itself. Follow the adhesive's own data sheet for its directions.

Storage and handling

Storage conditions for the adhesive are on its container and its Henkel data sheet.

Use the finished rings on static seals only, as Henkel describes this kit for static O-rings. No technical data sheet applies to the kit as a whole. Read the safety data sheet before use.
