  1. Grab items from BOM.
  2. Mix the epoxy by using the ratio that is on the cans.
    1. Place a plastic sample cup on a scale and zero the scale
    2. Fill the cup with a small amount of A epoxy using a glass rod.
      • Let the epoxy drip from the rod.
      • Rotate the rod when needed to keep more epoxy from dripping.
    3. Clean the rod with a paper towel and IPA.
      • (The rod must be completely clean.)
    4. Use the ratio on the can to find out how much of the B epoxy that needs to be added in.
    5. Mix the epoxy using the glass rod.
  3. A production drawing of an exploded view of a breakseal, consisting of the breakseal end on the left, the breakseal tube on the right, and then connecting the two is the bellows.
    An exploded view of a breakseal.
    Grab a test tube rack to hold the breakseal after the epoxy has been used on it.
  4. Apply a small amount of epoxy to the inside of one side of the bellow.
    • The epoxy should not go too deep into the bellow and should create a ring that will make an air tight seal.
  5. Push the breakseal end into the bellow with a slight twisting motion.
  6. Apply epoxy to the other side of the bellow and place the the breakseal tube into it with a twisting motion.
  7. Place the breakseal in the test tube rack with the tube end down.
    • When doing this be careful to not knock anything down and to not bump any other breakseals.
