sssssssssss

high strength to weight ratio (75% lighter than steel, 33% lighter than aluminum). Extreme durability in adverse environments.Outstanding cost / performance.Corrosion resistant. Non-conductive. Heat resistant.Water resistant. Fire retardant. Easy to fabricate. Low maintenance.Choice of colors.

Pas-Gon profiles and bars can be fabricated with ordinary power andhand tools. For faster cutting speedsand longer tool life, use carbide ordiamond blades, bits and wheels.

Sawing Drilling Punching Adhesives Bolts and Rivets

Wet cutting permits greater feed speed, usesless power, eliminates dust.Use high-speed twist drills with wide flutes andhigh pitches. Back up the work with wood tokeep the hole from breaking out on the back side.Thicknesses up to ½" can be punched with specially shaped punch that permits only a small part of the cutting edge to penetrate thematerial at any one time. Strippers allow the punch to be removed without cracking thematerial.

For the strongest, most reliableconnections, use a combination of anadhesive and a mechanical fastener.

Design the joint to avoid excessive peeling stress. Clean contaminated surfaces withacetone. Sand the surface lightly beforeapplying an epoxy or polyester adhesive. Apply an adhesive to the inside of the holebefore inserting the bolt or rivet. The tighter thebolt or rivets is in the hole, the better theconnection will be.
