Epoxy Structural Adhesives for Industrial Bonding Applications

Epoxy structural adhesives are high-strength, two-component bonding systems engineered for load-bearing and long-term industrial applications. These adhesives are widely used as an advanced alternative to mechanical fastening and welding, providing uniform stress distribution, excellent durability, and long-term resistance to chemical and environmental exposure.

Designed for demanding bonding conditions, epoxy structural adhesives deliver reliable performance on metals, composites, and engineered materials where structural integrity is critical.

Why Choose Epoxy Structural Adhesives?

Epoxy structural adhesives are selected when bonding performance, durability, and safety cannot be compromised. Compared to traditional fastening methods, they offer clear technical and operational advantages:

  • High lap shear strength on aluminium and metallic substrates

  • Excellent adhesion to metals, composites, and FRP materials

  • Strong resistance to chemicals, moisture, and temperature fluctuations

  • Long-term durability under static and dynamic loads

  • Clean bonding process without drilling, welding, or surface deformation

These advantages make epoxy structural adhesives an essential solution for modern industrial manufacturing and structural assembly.

FLOBOND Epoxy Structural Adhesive Range

The FLOBOND epoxy structural adhesive range is developed to meet different production speeds while maintaining consistent high bonding strength across all grades. Each product is optimized for a specific working time requirement without compromising structural performance.

FLOBOND 2011 – Extended Open Time Structural Adhesive

FLOBOND 2011 is formulated for applications requiring extended working and positioning time. Its long pot life allows accurate alignment of large components and complex assemblies before curing begins.

Typical applications include:

  • Large composite structures

  • Honeycomb panel bonding

  • Industrial assemblies requiring extended adjustment time

FLOBOND 2021 – Medium Speed Epoxy Structural Adhesive

FLOBOND 2021 offers a balanced curing profile, making it suitable for general industrial bonding applications where controlled handling time and efficient workflow are required.

Typical applications include:

  • Metal to metal bonding

  • Composite component assembly

  • Structural repairs and reinforcements

FLOBOND 2031 – Fast-Setting Structural Epoxy Adhesive

FLOBOND 2031 is a fast curing epoxy structural adhesive designed for rapid assembly and on-site repair operations. Its short pot life enables quick handling and early strength development.

Typical applications include:

  • Fast production lines

  • Time critical industrial bonding

  • On site structural repairs

Key Technical Properties of FLOBOND Epoxy Structural Adhesives

All FLOBOND epoxy structural adhesives are two component systems delivering stable and reliable bonding performance under demanding conditions:

  • Lap shear strength up to 24 MPa on aluminium

  • Controlled curing at ambient temperatures (10–40 °C)

  • Excellent fatigue and impact resistance

  • Minimal cure shrinkage

  • Stable performance under continuous mechanical stress

These properties ensure long-term structural integrity even in harsh industrial environments.

How to Select the Right Epoxy Structural Adhesive

Selecting the correct epoxy structural adhesive depends primarily on required working time and production speed:

  • Choose FLOBOND 2011 when extended open time and precise positioning are required

  • Choose FLOBOND 2021 for balanced curing speed and versatile industrial applications

  • Choose FLOBOND 2031 for fast handling and rapid curing requirements

All grades provide high structural bonding strength; the primary difference lies in processing speed, not bonding performance.
