REPLACEMENT OF DOOR SNUBBER SEALS (Cont.)
1. To replace door snubber seal, proceed with the following steps:
a. Remove windlace retainers, “roll” back windlace (tape to secure) out of way, remove all scuff
plates and disconnect door holder.
b. Remove all striker plates except where shown in Figure 1, Section A-A.
c. With a plastic scraper or other appropriate instrument, scrape off snubber while applying mineral
spirits as necessary to loosen strip and wipe off excess adhesive with a clean cloth.
2. Install snubber as follows:
a. If door jamb is flaking or excessively scuffed, rub down with wet and dry emery cloth. Clean surface
using Prep-Sol or equivalent cleaner which will not leave an oily residue.
b. Mask jamb as shown in View E of Figure 1.
c. Apply adhesive to door jamb as shown in View E of Figure 1.
d. Apply adhesive to inside surface of snubber.
e. Position snubber with protruding leg facing outboard beginning at lower center of door jamb and work
progressively around jamb applying pressure to snubber to remove any trapped air and to ensure a
proper bond. Do Not prestretch snubber as this can induce cracks.
– NOTE –
Normal tack time for 3M EC 1300L is 30-45 minutes at 75°F.
However, adhesive that has “set” may be reactivated by a clean
rag moistened with Toluol or MEK.
f.
It takes approximately 1 day for bond to cure. Do Not allow door to close during this period. It is
recommended that door be left open as long as possible to effect curing.
g. Remove masking tape if used and clean off excessive adhesive smears using Mineral Spirits or
Toluol and a clean cloth. Install striker plates and windlacing. Cut snubber for aft cabin door as
h. Check that doors close properly and readjust as necessary to achieve a flush fit. Latching effort
must not have increased.
i.
With all hardware and plates installed, coat snubbers with silicone.
