Waterproof Epoxy Structural Adhesives
Even when used under water, these adhesives maintain their strength. The most weather- and chemical-resistant structural adhesives, epoxies tend to work especially well on metals.
The size listed is the combined total of the two parts. For putty adhesives, slice off the required amount, then knead it together to form a moldable adhesive.
ClearWeld and Plastic Bonder can be applied to wet surfaces.
WaterWeld and 11801, as well as one-time-use packets, can be applied to wet surfaces or under water.

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.
E-120HP resists acetone, fuel, and oil. It bonds dissimilar materials and withstands rapid changes in temperature.
9430 bonds dissimilar materials and resists fuel and hydraulic fluid.
