Back, by popular demand: West System Six10

by ATL Composites 15 Oct 2020 22:01 PDT

Six10 Thickened Epoxy Adhesive is a useful adhesive that adds convenience to the versatile WEST SYSTEM product line. It is completely compatible with all other WEST SYSTEM products so that it can be used on top of or underneath any 105 Resin-based epoxies, whether cured or uncured.

Six10 Thickened Epoxy Adhesive combines the strength, reliability and excellent physical properties of a two-part WEST SYSTEM Epoxy with point-and-shoot convenience. The self-metering coaxial cartridge dispenses a gap-filling structural epoxy that bonds tenaciously to wood, metals, fiberglass and concrete. The tube comes with a static mixer that lets you lay down a bead of thickened epoxy with any standard caulking gun.

Six10's shear thinning properties make it "thinner" as it's worked. It can be easily tooled into a non-sagging fillet or used to wet out light to moderate reinforcing fabrics like fiberglass. The hardener provides a long open time but has fast thru-cure. Six10 stays workable in the static mixer for 42 minutes, making it practical for long or complicated assemblies.

Each tube of Six10 contains 190ml and comes equipped with a static mixing wand. Additional static mixers are available in packs of 2 and 12.

Six10 Available through the West System national dealer network.
