Description

Loctite Ea 3463 Epoxy Structural Bonding Putty

  • Fixture Time Temperature : 15 °C
  • Color : Grey
  • Curing Type : Room temperature cure after mixing
  • Application : Metal Repair
 

LOCTITE EA 3463 is a versatile, dual component, easy to use, steel-filled epoxy repair putty. It is applied like a putty and when cured it exhibits high compressive strength and good adhesion to most surfaces. This product stops leaks in pipes and tanks, fills oversized bolt holes, smoothes welds, and repairs non-structural defects in castings or holes in tanks. This product is typically used in applications with an operating temperature range of -30 °C to +121 °C.

  • Steel-filled kneadable stick
  • For the emergency repair of tanks, pipes and castings
  • Operating temperature range -55 °C to +120 °C.

GENERAL INFORMATION

This product is not recommended for use in pure oxygen
and/or oxygen rich systems and should not be selected as
a sealant for chlorine or other strong oxidizing materials.
For safe handling information on this product, consult the
Safety Data Sheet (SDS).
Surface Preparation

Proper surface preparation is critical to the long-term
performance of this product. The exact requirements vary with
severity of the application, expected service life, and initial substrate conditions
Directions for use:


  1. CAUTION: Do not apply to surfaces above 66 °C (150F).
  2. Apply to clean and dry surface for best strength.
    LOCTITE®
    EA 3463 can be applied to wet surfaces, but
    bond strength will be lower.
  3. For maximum adhesion, clean and sand surface.
  4. Use gloves; do not mix with bare hands.
  5. Cut required amount of material from stick. Remove clear
    plastic wrapper from cut section.
  6. To mix, first twist the material to produce a spiral pattern
    of resin and hardener. Next, knead material for 2-3
    minutes or until a uniform color is achieved.
  7. Firmly apply for patch, repair or bonding.
  8. For a smooth finish, wet a cloth or gloved finger with water
    and smooth.

Technical Tips for Working With Epoxies

Environmental Conditions
  • Relative humidity: <85%
  • Ambient temperature: >15°C (60F) and rising
  • Substrate temperature must always be 3°C (7F) higher
    than the dew point to avoid condensing moisture on parts
Working time and cure depends on temperature and mass:
  • The higher the temperature, the faster the cure.
  • The larger the mass of material, the faster the cure
To speed the cure of epoxies at low temperatures:
  • Store epoxy at room temperature.
  • Pre-heat repair surface until warm to the touch.
To slow the cure of epoxies at high temperatures:
  • Mix epoxy in small masses to prevent rapid curing.
  • Cool resin/hardener component(s).
