Replacement of Silicone Rubber Pads
1. Make sure heat platen is cool.
2. Use tube of MPPC006 adhesive to bond
silicone rubber pad to metal platen.
NOTE: Read instructions on the tube package.
3. Be sure that the surface of the silicone platen
is clean. Use a mild solvent such as mineral
spirits.
4. The pad and metal must be thoroughly dry
and clean, before starting the bonding
operation.
5. Apply adhesive sealant to the metal platen.
Spread a thin even coat and apply pad
immediately. Apply pressure and position pad
making sure that there is no air entrapment.
NOTE: A serrated blade such as used for laying down
rubber floor tiles would be helpful.
6. Allow to cure overnight under low pressure at
normal room temperature.

mounting screws.

control as stated in Step 2.
