Sikaflex 252 Elastic Adhesive for Vehicle Assembly Bonding Overview Sikaflex 252 is a one-component polyurethane adhesive designed specifically for vehicle assembly, providing excellent adhesion to large components subjected to dynamic stresses. This moisture-curing elastic adhesive bonds well to metals, GRP, ceramics, and plastics, making it ideal for applications in automotive manufacturing and other industries. With good gap-filling properties, vibration-damping characteristics, and electrical non-conductivity, Sikaflex 252 ensures reliable performance in demanding environments. It is listed under NSF – Proprietary Substances and Nonfood Compounds. Sikaflex 252 Features and Benefits Strong Dynamic Stress Resistance: Ideal for bonding components subject to vibration and movement. Versatile Substrate Bonding: Adheres to timber, metals, ceramics, and plastics. Effective Gap-Filling Properties: Ensures secure bonding on uneven surfaces. Vibration-Damping: Reduces noise and enhances assembly stability. Paintable: Achieves a professional finish with minimal effort. Electrically Non-Conductive: Suitable for use in sensitive electrical environments Listed Under NSF: Proprietary Substances and Nonfood Compounds Specifications Series: Sikaflex 252 Chemistry: One-Component Polyurethane Application: Simple Bonding Substrates: Timber, Metals, Sheet Steel, Metal Primers and Paint Coatings (2-Component Systems), Ceramics, and Plastics Color: Black and White Cure Mechanism: Moisture-Curing Package Size: 10.1 fl oz (300 mL) Cartridge and 20.3 oz (600 mL) Unipack Density (Uncured): 10 lb/gal (1.2 kg/l) - Depends on Color Application Temperature: 50°F to 95°F (10°C to 35°C) Skin Time: 40 Minutes Open Time: 35 Minutes Curing Speed: See Diagram on TDS Shore A Hardness: 50 Tensile Strength: 430 psi (3 MPa) Elongation at Break: 400% Tear Propagation Resistance: 40 pli (7 N/mm) Tensile Lap-Shear Strength: 360 psi (2.5 MPa) Service Temperature: -40°F to 194°F (-40°C to 90°C) Shelf Life: 9 Months Storage Temperature: Below 77°F (25°C) - Protect from Direct Sun Light Applications Sikaflex 252 is ideal for vehicle assembly and other industrial applications where bonding large components is necessary.
