Hot v’s Cold Bonding

Elastotec lagging can be applied to pulleys by cold bonding or by hot vulcanisation.

ELASTOTEC COLD BONDING
PULLEY LAGGING

Elastotec Cold Bonding Rubber Lagging has the CN buffed bonding layer packed in plastic to protect and keep it fresh and free from contamination until application to the pulley.

A rubber tear bond is achieved by using Elastotec Metal Primer 2205 and Elastotec Cold Bonding Adhesive to chemically interlock with the CN bonding layer, making a strong interface between the layers.

An Elastotec approved applicator using the Elastotec application procedure will achieve reliable adhesion levels that exceed the 9 N/mm industry standard and are typically at 12 N/mm.

ELASTOTEC HOT VULCANISING PULLEY LAGGING

Elastotec Hot Vulcanising Rubber Lagging has a 1.2mm thick uncured rubber layer applied to the back and sides of the lagging. Hot Vulcanising Lagging is supplied packed in plastic to protect and keep the uncured bonding layer fresh and free from contamination until application to the pulley. Application by a trained Elastotec approved applicator using the Elastotec application procedures will guarantee a 100% rubber tear bond between the lagging and the pulley shell with typical adhesion values exceeding 20 N/mm.
