• Convenient means of
providing a quick or
temporary mount
• Reduces frequency
response rating by
approximately 50% vs. stud
mounting
• Adhesive should be as
thin and hard as
possible
• Bonding force should be
of a semi-permanent
nature to enable future epoxy,
cement,
removal without
adhesive
damaging the sensor
