Plexus MA 530 adhesive & activator, 400 ml cartridge incl. mixing nozzle

Adhesive with a mix ratio of 1:1 and long duration, for applications with high seams. MA530 is suitable for GKF materials, metals and thermoplastics. Including 1 mixing tube

Plexus® MA530 is a two-part methacrylate adhesive designed for structural bonding of thermoplastic, metal, and composite assemblies. Combined at a 1:1 ratio, MA530 has a working time of 30 to 40 minutes and reaches approximately 500 psi in 90 to 110 minutes and 1000 psi in 150 to 160 minutes at 74˚F (23˚C). This product has been designed for use on large structures where a moderate open time product is needed. Plexus MA530 may be used for composite and metal bonding for small to large structures. In addition, this product provides a unique combination of excellent fatigue endurance, outstanding impact resistance, and superior toughness. Plexus MA530 is gray when mixed and is available in ready-to-use 400-ml cartridges, 5-gallon (20- liter) pails, or 50- gallon (200-liter) drums to be dispensed as a non-sagging gel.

Application
Surface Preparation - Plexus adhesives typically require little or no surface preparation, but are dependent on the material and degree of contamination in the bonding area. For optimal performance, ITW PP recommends surfaces to be free of grease, dirt, and other contaminants.

• Plastics and coated metals - wipe with a dry rag or a light solvent may be sufficient.
• Raw metal - wipe with a dry rag or a light solvent may be sufficient.
• Metals may be affected by the degree of oxidation, scaling, fluids or other contaminants.
• Composites - dust free surfaces can be bonded as is or may require light abrasion to remove mold releases, or to increase the surface area.

Other surfaces should have the same considerations. ITW PP recommends customers test to determine the optimal preparation for their materials to ensure suitability
