| Operating temperature | up to 180 °C |
|---|---|
| Shear strength | 19 N/mm2 to 23 N/mm2 |
| Peel strength | 1.0 N/mm to 2.7 N/mm |
| Mix ratio by volume | 1:1 to 2.7:1 |
The adhesives bond a wide range of substrates including metals, glass, ceramic, wood, and most plastics.
General purpose epoxies are suitable for a wide range of general and flexible bonding applications, while five-minute epoxies are fast curing and ideal for multi-purpose use or metal repair where a rapid cure is required.
Ultra clear products are recommended for bonding transparent substrates.
High temperature epoxies are designed for use up to 180 °C.
