With its super adhesive strength, the "Mother" of the Pattex contact adhesive range bonds quickly, spreads easily, and adheres well to different surfaces. Pattex Kraftkleber Classic bonds almost all materials such as laminates, HPL boards, rubber, leather, cork, felt, hard PVC, soft foam materials, or metals. Its high temperature resistance makes the adhesive cold-resistant from -40°C to +70°C, as well as heat-resistant. Thanks to its properties, the liquid adhesive can be used in a variety of applications: whether for repairing various household items or for bonding sealing strips, sound-absorbing, insulating, and acoustic panels, veneer strips, or kitchen countertops, it serves as an all-purpose adhesive. Pattex Kraftkleber Classic should be applied well and evenly to both parts to be bonded, possibly using a notched trowel. The material to be bonded should be load-bearing, dry, free of grease and dust, and residue-free. The solvents should be allowed to evaporate for at least 10 to 15 minutes at room temperature, ensuring good ventilation in the room. After this, bonding is possible within the open time of 1 hour. The two parts should be precisely aligned and pressed together briefly but firmly. Corrections are no longer possible. For the final strength of the bond, the pressure applied is more important than the duration of the pressure. A pressure roller or rubber mallet can be helpful to increase the pressure, and a template can be used if necessary. The final strength will be achieved after about 3 days. Not suitable for glass, PE, PP, soft PVC, polystyrene, and PTFE.
