Troubleshooting

Resin not curing

Ensure proper mixing of the components and that the application temperature is within the recommended range. Check the expiration date.

Poor adhesion to the cable

Ensure the cable surface is clean, dry, and free from contaminants. Roughening the surface may improve adhesion.

Slow curing time

Verify the ambient temperature is within the recommended range. Warmer temperatures will speed up curing, while cooler temperatures will slow it down.

Air bubbles in the cured resin

Ensure the resin is mixed slowly and carefully to avoid trapping air. Consider using a vacuum chamber if necessary.
