Epoxy Adhesives

Epoxy adhesives consist of a resin and hardener that cure to form a rigid, waterproof bond.  Use them for structural repairs, filling gaps and bonding dissimilar materials.  Slow‑ and fast‑cure formulas offer working time options.

What are epoxy adhesives commonly used for?
Epoxy adhesives are strong, durable glues used for bonding metals, plastics, wood, ceramics, and glass. They’re popular in construction, repairs, and crafts because of their resistance to heat, chemicals, and impact.

How do I mix and apply epoxy correctly?
Epoxy usually comes in two parts — resin and hardener. Mix them in the correct ratio (often 1:1) until fully blended, then apply to clean, dry surfaces. Work quickly, as the adhesive begins curing once mixed.

How long does epoxy take to set and fully cure?
Setting time can range from 5 minutes to several hours depending on the formula. Full curing, where maximum strength is achieved, often takes 24 hours. Always check the manufacturer’s instructions for exact times.
