Metal Adhesives

Even though you can't see dirt on your applications, there will be some there so it is always recommended that you clean the surface to be bonded before applying the adhesives. This will give you the best possible bond.

Grey Foam Tape LSE 1.1mm ​available from Metal Adhesives

Suitable for metals and plastics which have coatings on them which have low surface energy.​

Sizes 12mm, 19mm, and 25mm​
Specific slit widths or log rolls are available upon request​

Service temperature – 40°c to 160°c

A10 Aluminium + known in simple terms as a ‘very high strength glue’ (A10+) which is available in 50ml and 400ml cartridges – it is another brilliant industrial metal adhesive. As with all bonding solutions, we stress that maximum effectiveness will be achieved with correct preparation of surfaces prior to application.

So, once you’ve wiped your surfaces over with IPA on a lint free cloth, you will attach the nozzle provided and engage the cartridge into your applicator gun. It’s then down to you to squeeze out the right amount of glue – we call this “beading” – for your application and then bring your substrates (surfaces or pieces) together.

You will notice that on our website page and on our product labels are guides to temperature resistance, suggested gaps to fill and curing (drying) times, and for this product we advise 12-24 hours for full strength.

As it says on it’s label, this will bond aluminium, steel, engineered plastics and composites. Temperature 220 powder coat cycle.

Grey foam acrylic tape is ideal for strutural bonding and suitable for metals and plastics which have coatings on them which have low surface energy.​

Sizes 12mm, 19mm, and 25mm

Here is another "How to" video for you: How to ensure the correct mixing of two part adhesives: We recommend you mix a small amount onto some card - this will ensure it is correctly mixed.

We always recommend that you put the lid back onto your IPA after use. That way you can prevent it from evaporating and wasting your mone and also to avoid unnessecary vapours.

What you need for applying A20 High Strength Structural Adhesive can be seen in this video.

A80 Panel+ Adhesive

Flowing, spreadable. Bonds insulation panels and laminate construction.

Insulation & Laminate

Bonds and Seals most metals and plastics. High temperature adhesive. Solvent free.
Caulking Applicator Gun. Recommend IPA Kit for preparation before use.

How to use:
Pierce the top of the cartridge screw thread, cut the nozzle to the required nead size and apply the product using either a hand or pneumatic cartridge gun.

Ensure that the contact is made with all the bonding surface and when required, tool to a smooth finish with a spatula immediately after application. Refer to technical data sheet.

We would like to remind you here that there is a difference between sealants and adhesives, which makes sense once you remember their names – sealants seal and adhesives glue. As a bonus some sealants can also provide some noise insulation and fire protection, which is essential in some industrial settings.

Having cleaned your components prior to bonding, we recommend that you keep the clean side exposed and not to put it face down incase this brings about further contamination which could adversely affect the bond.

Colour Match Silicone Sealant can be matched by RAL numbers. It is a premium quality, low modulus, neutral curing (Oxime) silicone sealant which contains fungicides (food safe) making it suitable for use as a sanitary sealant, as well as many other sealant applications. It provides a long lasting watertight seal for interior and exterior applications. We can colour match our silicone in as little as 12 tubes (MOQ 12 tubes per box).

This structural adhesive is a high strength bonding solution for glass, plastic components, brass and copper, which is also famous for being a ‘fast grab’ solution, with a very useful 5 – 7 minutes of working time.

This epoxy has an enormous temperature resistance of between -55’C and +150’C. This industrial adhesive is a clear 1:1 bonder available in 50ml and 400ml cartridge sizes which travels through our dynamic mixer nozzle to form a very high strength bond.

Tip: Use the working time wisely and bear in mind the very high bonding strength of this epoxy.

Structural adhesives are an essential part of many industrial, automotive, and aerospace applications, and they can be used to create strong, lasting bonds between materials with different properties. It is important to choose the right adhesive for the application, as different adhesives have different properties and benefits. With the right adhesive, it is possible to create a strong, lasting bond that can withstand the rigors of use in the harshest conditions.

The adhesive cartridge should be loaded into the applicator gun from the side and clunked into position. Then you are ready to start bonding.

Technical tip: It is always a good idea to bead some 2 part adhesive onto a piece of card to ensure it is properly mixed before applying it to your component.

We would like to remind you here that there is a difference between sealants and adhesives, which makes sense once you remember their names – sealants seal and adhesives glue. As a bonus some sealants can also provide some noise insulation and fire protection, which is essential in some industrial settings.

Metal adhesives, or metal-bonding adhesives, are a class of adhesive that is specifically formulated for use on metals. Unlike traditional adhesives, metal adhesives are specifically designed to provide strong, durable bonds between metal surfaces, making them ideal for a wide variety of applications.

Unlike traditional adhesives, metal adhesives are much stronger and more durable. As a result, they are often used in applications where a strong and permanent bond is required. This includes applications such as automotive repair, outdoor equipment, and most construction and industrial settings.

With the right adhesive, it is possible to create a strong, lasting bond that can withstand the rigors of use in the harshest conditions. Talk to us about your appplication needs. We are here to help recommend the best adhesive for you.
