Description

Self-adhesive SHELTER protection is a composite, multi-layered (50×20 micron shock-resistant layers, 200 micron scratch-resistant, total thickness 1,2 mm), transparent compound with visco-elastic behaviour. SHELTER widely increases the shock-resistance of carbon-fiber or metal structures it’s applied to. It's now available in 54 mm and 80 mm to fit new generation of EMTB Frames

Features

  • SHELTER protects from impacts* – spreading their energy within its structure
  • Abrasion and solvent resistant
  • Invisible frame protection, against scratches and impacts
  • Lightweight
  • Easy to apply, strong adhesion also on curved surfaces
  • Ideal for protecting carbon or metal parts
  • VIsco-elastic  behavior reduced vibrations
  • Doesn’t yellow and has a semi-structural*** adhesion** to the surface it’s applied onto : normal bicycle washing won’t affect it, but it can be removed – if needed – without damaging the underlying paint
  • Size:
      - 54mm x 5m (dimensions may vary from +/- 10%)
      - 54mm x 1m (dimensions may vary from +/- 10%)
      - 80mm x 5m (dimensions may vary from +/- 10%)
      - 80mm x 1m (dimensions may vary from +/- 10%)

Apply : 

  • Adhesion of Shelter is defined "semi-structural", so very strong but not permanent. After being applied, it takes Shelter 8 hours before developing its optimal bonding. After that, normal bicycle use or washing won’t affect it, but it can be removed – if needed – without damaging the underlying paint.
  • Application of Shelter doesn't require special tools or procedures, just normal skills and patience:
  • After removing cables or other interfering elements, clean the area where you want to apply Shelter with alcohol and a clean cloth. Remove traces of dried-up alcohol with another clean, dry cloth;
  • Take the suitable pre-cut Shelter element or cut a custom made Shelter piece, without removing the backing paper;
  • Make sure the element fits the area you want to protect and make sure your hands are clean. After that, completely remove the backing paper, freeing the adhesive surface (try not to touch the adhesive surface with your fingers, or do it as little as possible: being transparent, fingerprints might show);
  • Gently position Shelter on the area to protect, without applying pressure and without stretching the material. Re-position it if necessary, until it sits exactly where you want it. As this point, start applying an even pressure, working from the center and going towards the sides, to avoid trapping air bubbles and making wrinkles;
  • Work on the whole Shelter element to make it stick to the surface. Insist on the edges and on tight curved sections to make sure the adhesion is even.
  • You can use your bicycle immediately after applying Shelter, remembering that the full adhesion is achieved after 8 hours.
  • To remove Shelter, peel it off slowly, making sure not to delaminate it. Doing so, Shelter won't leave any trace of glue on the surface it was formerly attached to, even after several years.
