LOCTITE® SF 712 is a transparent, isopropanol amine solvent-based liquid cyanoacrylate activator used where increased cure speed of LOCTITE cyanoacrylate adhesives is required. It can be either pre- or post-applied to the bond. It is especially suited for post-application on cyanoacrylate adhesive to ensure rapid fixturing. Typical applications include securing wires or coils to PCBs.

LOCTITE®
cyanoacrylate adhesives is required. It can be
either pre- or post-applied to the bond. The product is
especially suited for post-application on cyanoacrylate
adhesive to ensure rapid fixturing. Typical applications include
securing wires or coils to PCBs, tamper-proofing adjustable
components, mounting stand-offs, edge guides and board
stiffeners.

Handling precautions

Activator must be handled in a manner applicable to highly
flammable materials and in compliance with relevant local
regulations.
The solvent can affect certain plastics or coatings. It is
recommended to check all surfaces for compatibility before
use.

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).
Under no circumstances should activator and adhesive be
mixed directly as liquids. Use only in a well ventilated area.

Directions for Use

Post Activation

1. Apply Loctite cyanoacrylate to the parts to be bonded or
   fixed.
2. Apply Activator over all exposed cyanoacrylate adhesive
   by spray or drop. (Typically use one drop of activator per
   drop of exposed adhesive).

Surface Activation

1. Apply one coating of Activator to the area to be bonded by
   spray, brush or dipping. Contaminated surfaces may need
   special cleaning or degreasing prior to activation to
   remove any soluble contamination.
2. Allow LOCTITE® SF 712™ to fully evaporate from parts
   prior to bonding to avoid solvent entrapment within the
   bond joint.
3. Apply the Loctite cyanoacrylate product immediately after
   drying or not more than 45- seconds thereafter.
4. Activator can be re-applied if necessary if there is a delay
   of more than 45- seconds between original activator and
   adhesive application.
