OMEGA’s TT300 cement is a heat-cured, 2-part epoxy
adhesive that can be used to bond polyimide-backed
strain gages for strain measurement up to 200°C (392°F).
Each TT300 kit includes 2 bottles of resin and hardener
that are pre-measured to ensure proper mixing
proportions. To use, simply pour one bottle of hardener
into one bottle of resin and shake for 1 minute.
A bottle each of hardener and resin produce
approximately 3/4 oz of adhesive. The shelf life of
the resin-hardener mixture is 6 weeks at room
temperature. The shelf life of the unmixed components
is indefinite, provided that the bottles are kept tightly
sealed. Each TT300 kit includes 2 oz of acetone,
acid primer, neutralizer, and rosin solvent for cleaning
and preparing the surface, as well as 2 funnels and
2 cap brushes.
SG496 and SG401 are general purpose cold-curing,
1-part glues. They are the most commonly used
adhesives for strain gages. They cure in 1 minute,
but require 24 hours to set. SG401 is an ethyl-based
cyanoacrylate, and SG496 is a methyl-based
cyanoacrylate. They have a 1-year shelf life at
room temperature, but shelf life may be longer at
colder temperatures. The glue temperature range is
-54 to 82°C (-65 to 180°F).
