Vertical Instant Lock™ Adhesive

Clean Surface

1. 1. Clear the surface of all materials that may prevent adequate adhesion, such as heavy textures, dirt, dust, other loose particles or heavy texture. 
   2. Surfaces must be flat, completely dry, and above 40°F.

2. attach to caulking gun

   1. Cut across the tube’s nozzle base, completely puncture the inner foil, and screw on the included v-notch applicator tip.

3. Apply Adhesive with Caulking Gun

   1. Apply using SRW Premium Caulking Gun. Minimum 14:1 thrust ratio required.
   2. At a 90° angle, v-notch up, apply to one of the surfaces in a continuous bead spanning the full width but staying ½˝ (1.27 cm) from the outside edge. 
   3. Additional beads may be needed.
   4. Separate beads by 1.5˝ (3.81 cm). 
   5. Do not apply in a dot pattern.

4. Press & Twist

   1. Press surfaces firmly together with a slight twisting motion and hold firmly for 5 seconds.

7. USER TIPS

   1. Application temperatures: For ease of extraction, working temperature should be between 60-90°F (15-32°C). Above 90°F (32°C), use additional supports for 24 hours. 

   2. Working time: 10 minutes, full cure in 24 hours

   3. Once cured adhesive should not exceed 200ºF (93.34ºC) 

   4. Apply horizontally in an arch pattern to avoid issues from trapped moisture.

   5.  When adhering heavy materials, permanent additional support may be required. Be sure the substrate can support the weight. To calculate the recommended amount of linear inches of adhesive needed, multiply the weight in lbs. by 2.33. 

   6. Not intended for suspended or overhead applications.

   7. Not intended for direct contact with flames or fire brick. 

   8. Not intended for plastic, rubber, or asphalt.
