Araldite 2013-1 Epoxy Adhesive

Araldite 2013-1 Epoxy Adhesive is a metal-coloured, paste-like adhesive. This two-component adhesive cures at room temperature and offers high strength and toughness. The thixotropic epoxy adhesive also provides excellent chemical and water resistance. Although it is primarily designed as a metal adhesive, it is also suitable for bonding materials such as ceramics, glass, rubber and rigid plastics. Thanks to its thixotropic consistency, Araldite 2013-1 is also ideal for vertical applications.
