Sika Aktivator-205
- Improves the adhesion of Sika
- Short cure time
- Easy to use
Sika Aktivator-205 is a solvent-based, colourless clear adhesion promoter which reacts with moisture and deposits active groups on the substrate. These groups act as a bonding link between substrates and primers or sealants/adhesives. Sika Aktivator-205 is designed for the treatment of bonding surfaces prior to the use of Sikaflex adhesives and sealants.
Sika Aktivator-205 is used to improve adhesion on non-porous substrates such as metals, plastics, ceramic screen prints and painted surfaces.
Features Sika Aktivator-205
- Enhanced adhesion on various substrates.
- Short flash-off time.
- Easy to use.
- Transparent.
Instructions for use
We advise to apply Aktivator on a clean and dry surface, free from all traces of grease, oil, dust and contaminents. Wipe bond faces with a clean, lint-free paper towel (moistened, not wet) with Sika Aktivator-205. Never dip the towel into the activator. Only wipe the surface with a clean side of the towel. Do not moisten the same paper towel twice and change it frequently. Caution: Sika Aktivator-205 has to be applied sparingly as excess of aktivator could lead to adhesion failure. If the pre-treated area is not bonded within the maximum flah-off time, the activation process has to be repeated (only once). Ideal application and surface temperature is between 15°C and 25°C. Consumption and method of application depends on the specific nature of the substrates. Tightly reseal container immediately after each use.
