Adhesive for Aluminum floor to steel tube
Wondering about what is the best adhesive to use to bond aluminum floor pan to steel tube, will be riveted at the same time. And any prep to be done to steel or aluminum. I'd like it to be able to be done without exotic materials or process's. Thanks
Epoxy: Type and How Much?
Hi Everyone,
The (3) 50 ml cartridges of Hysol E-120HP I purchased a few years back have expired and my frame is finally ready to attach the new floor pan thus I need to purchase more epoxy. Yesterday, I re-read a couple of decades of posts on the topic but there was no consistent answer as to how much epoxy is needed. Ranged from just over (1) 50 ml cartridge to (5) plus 50 ml cartridges.
Knowing having too much is better than running out, how much do I need?
Data:
RF92 FF frame with the added 1-inch internal strips (looks just like Brandon’s frame posted here.)
I have both 50 ml and 200 ml cartridge dispensers.
Epoxy:
Hysol E-120HP seems to be the overall favorite but I’m leaning towards using Hysol EA 9460 if I can convince myself the 50 minute (versus 120) working life will not be an issue. I have a pneumatic riveter for pull rivets, but I don’t have a ton of experience bucking rivets. Also, I will have a helper. Opinions?
Thanks in advance for the help.
