initial tack as well as a strong and superior permanent bond. It has great
resistance to environmental factors such as UV, moisture and temperature
and can be applied in temperatures as low as minus 20 degrees centigrade
without any detrimental affects.

and unique characteristics that allow for very high performance in the
most demanding of applications.
Composition
The (ABS) range comprises of products from the ProLink, TransLink and

with excellent long term, peel and shear performance. They are excellent
for bonding two dissimilar surfaces, where you will get differential rates
of expansion.
Features, advantages
