Toughened structural adhesive for metal bonding
TECHNIGLUE R15 is a two-part, solvent-free, thixotropic non-sag adhesive for aluminium, steel, fiberglass, carbon and composite substrates.
Key considerations
- Hardeners: H15 Standard, Slow and Super Slow
- Published mix ratio: 1:1 by weight or volume
- Surface preparation and joint design must follow the current TDS
Surface preparation and application
- Degrease, abrade and dust off bonding surfaces before applying adhesive. For metals, prepare surfaces as recommended in the TDS for best peel strength.
- Mix resin and hardener 1:1 by weight or volume until uniform in color.
- Thixotropic and non-sag: can be applied on vertical faces and fills gaps. Assemble within the working time and keep parts fixed until cured.
Choosing a hardener
H15 comes in three speeds: Standard, Slow and Super Slow. Use a slower grade for large bonds, many parts to align or hot conditions. See the TDS for exact times.
Applications
Structural bonding of aluminum, steel, fiberglass, carbon and composites where joints need toughness and high peel resistance, such as frames, stringers and fittings on hulls and equipment.
Current documents are provided by GKFRP upon request for the correct product grade and application.
Specifications, dosage, operating conditions and safety requirements must be checked against the manufacturer’s current TDS/SDS before implementation.
