PoliDamp – Polymer Based Damping Sheet

Application and Fixing

To obtain optimum bond strength from the self adhesive backing supplied on PoliDamp 3 damping dheets follow these instructions:

1. Allow to stabilise at room temperature prior to use.
2. Apply in horizontal or vertical plane.  Where there is a requirement for the damping sheet to be applied to the underside of a substrate, the substrate should be turned upside down if at all possible.  The damping sheet can then be applied to the underside from the horizontal or vertical plane and left until the adhesive has fully cured before turning the substrate back to its correct position.  If re-orientation of the substrate is not possible, the damping sheet can be applied from the underside providing it is supported against the substrate until the adhesive cures.  It is recommended that some form of permanent additional mechanical fixing also be used to retain PoliDamp to the underside of substrates.  This prevents the downwards pressure and weight of the damping sheet weakening the adhesive bond.
3. Clean and dry the substrate with an appropriate cleaner, i.e. methylated spirit or similar, so that it is free from oil, grease, rust, dust and other particles.  For applications onto timber substrates, the surface should be prepared using a primary coat of A3038 Neoprene Adhesive.
4. Apply when the ambient temperature is between 18C and 25C.  Peel off, the protective backing, position material onto substrate and apply a constant forward and downward pressure to the surface of the damping sheet to ensure it is securely fixed onto the substrate.  A hard timber or steel roller is recommended for this purpose.
5. Particular care must be taken to avoid forming air pockets between the substrate and self-adhesive backing, as this will weaken the bond and reduce the vibration damping performance.
