contents The challenge of accessing specialized adhesives designed for strain gage applications has been highlighted due to failures in logistic chains, requiring the exploration of local alternatives. A direct simulation of strain gage bonding behavior with two steel plates is infeasible due to the unique construction of strain gages. Therefore, an indirect simulation method, comparing local alternatives to a widely accepted adhesive, Loctite 496, was employed in this study. Two potential replacements, Loctite 401 and Tekbond 793, were tested and matched against the benchmark adhesive, with a focus on the key mechanical properties: Proportional Shear Strain (PSS), Proportional Shear Stress (PSSt), and Apparent Shear Modulus (G*). Loctite 401 exhibited the highest G*, suggesting its potential use in strain gage installations if G* is considered most important. However, Tekbond 793 demonstrated superior PSS, Maximum Shear Stress (MSSt), and Rupture Shear Stress (RSSt) performance, displaying linear behavior even without an accelerator. Surface preparation considerations were also discussed, noting that hand abrading results in double the surface roughness than using an orbital sander. The study further identified two main regions concerning failure modes related to Ra, with values below 0.31 μm causing significant variations in observed mechanical properties, pointing towards factors beyond adhesive layer thickness affecting bond properties. Lastly, the general recommendation is the use of an accelerator for all tested adhesives, while the use of a surface conditioner and neutralizer was found to negatively impact adhesive performance.
