Devcon Duco Cement for Professionals

Devcon Duco Cement is a multi-purpose, water-resistant, fast-drying, nitro-cellulose household cement that dries clear and tough. It is primarily used in the application of feathers to wood arrows, but it also has a wide range of other applications. The cement is extremely flammable in both its cured and uncured states, and it is important to keep it away from heat, sparks, and open flames.

For non-porous surfaces, one coat of the cement should be applied to each surface, and the pieces should be held or clamped until the cement sets and dries. For porous surfaces, each piece should be coated and allowed to dry, and then a second coat should be applied, with the pieces being held or clamped until the cement sets.

It is recommended to use removable tape on any surfaces where you do not want the cement to get. Before the cement sets, the tape should be removed.

The cement is capable of bonding a wide range of materials, including wood, china, leather, glass, paper, ceramic, and metal. However, it is not recommended for use on polyethylene or polypropylene plastics.

The tensile strength of the cement varies depending on the materials being bonded. It has a tensile strength of 200 psi (glass to glass), 1200 psi (wood to wood), and 700 psi (metal to metal).

It is important to note that the cement should not be used on any repairs that will come into contact with food-related items, as it may pose a health risk.

In summary, Devcon Duco Cement is a versatile and durable household cement that can be used for a variety of applications, but it must be used with caution due to its flammable nature and potential health risks. Proper application and safety precautions are essential when using this product.
