    Even when used underwater, these adhesives maintain their strength. Epoxies are the strongest and most chemical-resistant adhesives. They bond especially well on metal.
    These epoxies come in two parts that need to be mixed. The container size listed is the combined total of the two parts.
    Paste—Thicker than liquid adhesives but still spreadable—good for filling gaps and covering surfaces.
    Putty—Slice off a chunk and mold it into the shape you need.
    Thick Liquid—Flow into narrower gaps than gels and pastes, but thick enough to stay put on uneven surfaces.

    Mix these two-part epoxy surface fillers to create a strong repair in wet environments or underwater. Use them to repair cracked, worn, and damaged surfaces. Size listed is the combined total of the two parts.
    Putty—Putty fillers come in a stick with a resin on the outside and a hardener on the inside. Cut the desired amount from the sticks, knead to a uniform color to mix, and press into place.
    Paste—Paste fillers resist alkalies, solvents, gasoline, and oil.
    NSF/ANSI 61—NSF/ANSI 61 surface fillers meet safety standards for use with drinking water.

    Repair rips, split seams, and detached soles to stop leaks in shoes, boots, and waders. These epoxy adhesives create a strong, flexible seal that keeps water out, so they’re also used to coat seams. Use on leather, plastic, and rubber. They fully harden in 10 hours and dry clear.

    Shoe and Boot Protective Epoxy Coatings

    Extend the life of your footwear with these abrasion- and water-resistant epoxies. Stronger and more durable than most footwear materials, these epoxies are often used to coat and repair high-wear areas prone to rips, cracks, and water exposure, such as safety toes. They permanently bond to leather, plastic, and rubber. Each cartridge includes enough epoxy to coat the toes on one pair of shoes or boots. They fully harden in 24 hours and dry with a gloss finish, which can be rubbed away for a matte finish.

    Submersible Anchoring Adhesives for Concrete

    When concrete is saturated with or submerged in water, use these epoxies to permanently set threaded rods, studs, and rebar. They form a weather-resistant chemical bond that seals out moisture and resists vibration and dynamic loads better than mechanical anchors. Warning: Allowable pull-out strength is 25% of ultimate values or less, as required by building authorities. Use a mixer nozzle and dispensing gun (dispensing gun sold separately) to simultaneously mix and dispense adhesive.

    Structural Support Epoxies for Heavy Machinery

    Image of ProductInUse. Front orientation. Surface Fillers. Structural Support Epoxies for Heavy Machinery.
    Fill the void beneath motors, pumps, and other large machinery to create a structural support for your equipment. Also known as chocking epoxies, these epoxies replace traditional metal chocks, which often need to be machined. Mix these two-part epoxies and pour them in between your equipment and your base—they flow into every nook and cranny for a strong, long-lasting bond. As these epoxies cure, they won’t shrink. Designed to withstand demanding environments, these epoxies handle heavy loads, vibration, and chemicals without cracking. Especially good for harsh marine applications, you can use them when installing marine engines and deck-supported equipment, such as hoists and winches.
