Abstract: A method for applying rubber-to-metal adhesives to metal parts, such as tubular metal sleeves, employs electrostatic disc-type coaters includes the employment slow solvents which maintain the adhesive in a wet or liquid condition from its atomization at the disc to its deposition on the parts. The adhesives are diluted with a solvent which contains cyclohexanone and petroleum solvents.

Abstract: Metal parts are coated with one or more layers of a solvent-based adhesive using a roller coating procedure. The adhesive solution is transferred from a supply reservoir to the metal part by a natural fiber felt covered roll. The freshly coated part is then dried and the coating and drying procedure repeated until a layer of adhesive of desired thickness is built up. The use of a natural fiber felt covered roll permits uniform transfer and application of the adhesive at efficiencies above 90% (ratio of adhesive on the part to total adhesive used).
