Epoxy Structural Adhesives for Harsh Environments
With excellent resistance to corrosive chemicals and salt water, these epoxies work in tough conditions. Epoxies are the strongest structural adhesives. Choose an adhesive that hardens quickly for fast repairs, or one that hardens slowly to allow more time for positioning.
The size listed is the combined total of the two parts. Use cartridges with a dispensing gun and mixer nozzle to simultaneously mix and dispense adhesives.

Epoxy Structural Adhesives for Hard-to-Bond Materials
Fasten hard-to-bond plastics, such as polypropylene and polyethylene, with these adhesives. They bond dissimilar materials. Epoxies are the strongest and most weather- and chemical-resistant structural adhesives. Choose an adhesive that hardens quickly for fast repairs, or one that hardens slowly to allow more time for positioning.
The size listed is the combined total of the two parts. Use cartridges with a dispensing gun and mixer nozzle to simultaneously mix and dispense adhesives.

Flexible Light-Activated Instant-Bond Adhesives
These adhesives stay pliable for flexible bonds that resist cracking. For easy positioning, they begin to harden only when exposed to light.
1700A257 and 2454N1 fluoresce under UV light for easy inspection.

Fuel-Resistant Surface Fillers
Also known as sloshing compounds, these two-part epoxies bond to rough and rusty surfaces in fuel tanks to repair leaks and prevent further corrosion. They withstand permanent immersion in fuel, oil, and harsh solvents. Use them with metal, plastic, and fiberglass tanks. Mix the smaller can with the bigger one and pour into your fuel tank. Rotate the tank to coat the interior and dump out any excess. Allow to cure overnight. Size listed is the combined total of the two parts.
1.5-pint container can treat a 10-gallon fuel tank. 3-pint container can treat a 20-gallon fuel tank.

Surface Fillers for Plastic
Use these two-part fillers to rebuild cracked or worn plastic surfaces. The size listed is the combined total of the two parts.
Surface fillers in a cartridge come with a mixer nozzle, but require a gun (sold separately) for dispensing. For best results, use a primer (sold separately).
