Chemlok 8008 Primer
Water-based primer for superior bonding
Chemlok 8008 primer is a water-based adhesive primer designed to create a strong bond between elastomers and various substrates, including metals. It's formulated with a blend of dispersed mineral fillers, organic compounds, resins, and polymer latices in an aqueous medium, making it an environmentally friendly choice for many applications. This primer is specifically designed for use with Chemlok water-based covercoat adhesives, ensuring a complete and durable adhesive system.

Features and Benefits
- Environmentally Preferred - provides low VOC and HAP for reduced emissions, allowing for safer work environment and regulatory compliance.
- Versatile - functions as an effective primer for many materials such as steel, phosphated steel, nylon, aluminum and brass.
- Environmentally Resistant - preferred water-based Chemlok primer for glycol resistance; provides excellent resistance to water, salt spray, oil and heat.
- Durable - maintains excellent metal adhesion under flexing and high-stress conditions.
- Excellent Appearance - provides a smooth coating for use by dip or spray applications. The green color affords good contrast with water-based covercoat adhesives and prepared substrates.
- Easy to Use - easily redispersed within 5 to 15 minutes of stirring; imparts little or no settling; ready to use directly out of the container without dilution.
Typical Applications
- Metal surface preparation prior to elastomer bonding
- Enhancing adhesion in various industrial applications
Shelf Life/Storage
Shelf life is six months from date of shipment when stored by the recipient in a well ventilated area at 21-27 C (70-80 F) in original, unopened container. Do not freeze product. Storage below 4 C (40 F) may be detrimental to the primer properties.
