Mount Spacing
To determine the number of mounts to use in a given application, the following formula can be used as a guideline:
For example, to determine the mount spacing using part number ABM2S-A-C for an application with a bundle of wires that weigh one
pound per foot, the formula would be:
Proper Storage Conditions
Mounts and adhesives should be kept in the original packaging until they are ready to be applied. Store at room temperature 70°F (21°C)
with 45% or less relative humidity. Avoid storing adhesive products near heating vents or other heating sources.
Using the guidelines above, the average shelf life of adhesive foam tape is three (3) years from the date of manufacture. The shelf life of
Two-part Epoxy Adhesive is one (1) year from the date of manufacture. Failing to follow the recommended storage conditions may reduce
the shelf life or adhesive strength of the foam tape and Two-part Epoxy Adhesive.
Adhesive Technical Information
Adhesive foam tape properties are developed with thorough laboratory research and testing. The double-coated adhesive foam tape used
on
PANDUIT
®
Adhesive Backed Mounts is manufactured under strict quality requirements, which provide consistent, high quality
performance for use on adhesive mounts. Each package of mounts has an expiration date and a Quality Control number printed on the
label, which permit traceability.
