Features Araldite is stronger than other glues due to the chemical reaction of the two parts Bonds a variety of surfaces Dries Clear Very Strong, durable bonding Very high water resistance (e.g. OK for fixing tiles around pool, but not below the water line. For this use Selleys Knead it Aqua) Forms a rigid, durable bond Can be used for gap filling (surfaces need not mate closely) Good chemical resistance Heat Resistant Clamping is recommended to achieve a stronger bond Not suitable for bonding plastics such as Polypropylene and Polyethylene Bond strength weakens above 80°C but strength is regained when temperature drops Where can this product be used? Load bearing repairs Gluing the head back on your hammer Fixing loose table or chair legs. Bonding solid pieces of Aluminium sheeting Bonding timber on your boat Repairing splits and cracks in Cricket bats Bonding fibreglass sheets Repairing Ski’s Fixing Dynabolts and metal rods into concrete What materials is this product suitable for? Glass Metal Wood Fabric Rigid Plastic – will not bond to Polyethylene or Polypropylene plastics Crystal Leather How to use this product Before applying the Araldite mixture, all surfaces MUST be thoroughly clean and dry. All traces of grease, rust paint, etc. should be removed. For best results smooth surfaces should be roughened by mechanical abrasion after solvent cleaning. Onto a clean, disposable surface (e.g. polyethylene or cardboard), dispense equal volumes of Part A and Part B. Thoroughly mix together with a spatula, nail or stick. When using the tubes it is essential to use the correct mixing ratio, i.e. 1 part each Apply adhesive immediately to both surfaces and press together. Clamping is necessary while bond sets over 6-8 hours. Scrape off excess adhesive and wipe mixing utensils immediately. When using tubes, Ensure correct caps are replaced on each tube or they will harden Handy tips For maximum working time, mix in small quantities. Large quantities accelerate the curing process and reduce working time. To extend product life replace caps immediately after use. Ensure you wipe excess from nozzle with a tissue dipped in acetone (or nail polish remover) before replacing cap. When using the tube variant, ensure you replace the correct cap on the correct tube. Placing the wrong cap on the wrong tube will cause the tube to harden. (lids and tubes are colour coded to help) Wipe off any uncured araldite with acetone or nail polish remover. To remove product after cure, mechanical action (scraping or sanding) is recommended. Since the product is chemically resistant solvent will NOT dissolve this product. To reposition the bond once cured, check that the item is heat resistant. If safe, heat the item slowly, e.g. in an oven, to at least 150oC. The product will soften and liquify slightly. Scrape off any excess then reposition the joint carefully using appropriate safety equipment. Allow the item to cool down in the correct position. The product will reharden once returned to room temperature. Clamping recommended for a stronger bond. For cleaning surfaces prior to application of adhesive, if the surface is porous, we would reccomend using Selleys Liquid Sugar Soap. If the surfact is non-porous eg glass or metal, firstly clean the surface with Methylated Spirits. If there is old difficult to remove residue such as oold paint, we recommend using paint stripper such as Selleys Kwik Strip Smart. Ensure the surface is dry before applying the product.

Designed for Australian conditions, it balances strength, ease of use, and clean application so you can get professional results without special tools. The 532 mL pack is ideal for general work and keeps neatly in a toolbox or caddy. Why choose Gorilla Ultimate for your next project Everyday jobs often involve mixed materials and imperfect surfaces. Gorilla Ultimate Strong Wood Glue 532 mL has been formulated to wet out well, grab quickly, and cure to a tough finish that resists movement and contact stress. It maintains bond integrity across common temperature swings and has dependable resistance to moisture and most household chemicals. Whether you are fixing, building, sealing, or assembling, this product gives you confidence from first squeeze through final set. Best for Furniture build and repair Edge bonding and laminations Cabinetry and joinery where water resistance is valued Suitable surfaces The adhesive works well on the following surface types when properly prepared: Hardwoods and softwoods Plywood and MDF Veneers and end grain with correct technique Surface preparation Good preparation is the key to a long lasting repair. Remove loose material, dust, and grease. Wipe glossy areas with methylated spirits or an approved cleaner and allow to dry. On very smooth plastics and metals, lightly roughen with fine abrasive paper to give the adhesive a mechanical key. Dry fit parts first and mark alignment points so you can assemble accurately within the open time. If bonding porous materials, ensure both faces are dry and free of surface chalking. How to use Check fit and plan clamping. Do a trial run without adhesive so you know the order of steps. Apply a thin, continuous bead to one surface. For wide pieces, use a zig zag pattern to maximise wetting. Bring surfaces together within the stated open time of typically 5 to 10 minutes depending on temperature. Reseat once if needed, then hold steady. Apply even pressure using clamps, tape, weights, or temporary fasteners. Avoid squeezing all adhesive out of the joint. Allow to cure undisturbed. Initial handling strength will develop as the adhesive sets, with a full cure reached based on the chemistry described below. Cure profile Open time allows assembly before clamping. Forms a strong cross linked bond that is water resistant when fully cured. Temperature and environmental performance Use above 10 C and avoid freezing conditions while curing. Avoid application to very cold, sweating, or waterlogged surfaces. For outdoor use protect fresh bonds from rain until the skin has formed and the core has progressed in cure. Once fully cured, the bond resists normal weathering, splash water, and intermittent UV exposure based on the substrate and paint systems used. Clean up and finishing Wipe squeeze out with a damp cloth while wet. Scrape or sand once cured. When cured, excess can be carefully trimmed or sanded. For painted finishes, allow the adhesive to fully cure before priming. Test paint on a small area to confirm compatibility and drying behaviour. Coverage guide Coverage varies with bead size, surface porosity, and technique. As a general guide, a 3 mm bead yields approximately 10 to 12 linear meters per 310 mL cartridge. Smaller packs scale proportionally. Gaps, rough edges, and highly absorbent materials will reduce coverage. Plan an extra margin for offcuts and practice passes. Tips for best results Work within the recommended open time so the adhesive can properly wet the surfaces. Use light clamping pressure to keep parts aligned while maintaining a film thickness for strength. For very porous substrates, apply a thin precoat as a primer layer and allow it to tack before final assembly. Keep joint lines clean by masking edges with painter tape and removing it before the adhesive skins. Where movement or vibration is expected, design the joint to share load across a large area. Troubleshooting Poor adhesion: Check for oil, release agents, or surface dust. Reclean and lightly abrade if necessary. Slow cure: Low temperature and low humidity extend cure time. Maintain moderate conditions for best results. Visible squeeze out: Wipe fresh material with a suitable solvent and a soft cloth. Once cured, trim carefully. Bond line prints through paint: Allow a full cure, then prime and apply thin coats of paint, allowing proper drying between coats. Storage and shelf life Close the cap tightly and store upright. Do not allow the nozzle to clog; remove dried film if present. Always check the pack for a lot code and use by guidance. Reseal immediately after use and store upright. Dispose of empty containers responsibly. Safety Read the label before use. Wear gloves when handling uncured material. Provide ventilation in enclosed areas. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Keep out of reach of children and pets. If sensitivity occurs, stop use and seek advice. Do not ingest. First aid directions and detailed handling information are available on the package and the safety data sheet. Frequently asked questions Can I bond dissimilar materials? Yes, provided each surface is clean and sound. Differences in expansion are managed by the adhesive film thickness and the inherent flexibility after cure. Is clamping required? Light clamping improves alignment and final strength. Excessive pressure can starve the joint of adhesive which reduces performance. Is the bond water resistant? Once cured the bond resists splash water and routine humidity. For permanent immersion choose an adhesive designed for underwater service and follow the manufacturer guidance. Planning your job Measure twice and cut once. Dry assemble parts so you can confirm squareness and alignment before adhesive is involved. Keep rags, clamps, and spacers ready. If you are new to the product, test on offcuts to get a feel for bead size and squeeze out. A consistent 1 to 2 mm bond line is a good starting point for most rigid materials. Thicker lines help when surfaces are uneven. Avoid starving the joint by pressing too hard without giving the adhesive a place to reside. Responsible use Choose an adhesive that suits the materials and the environment the finished piece will face. If a joint will be submerged, carry structural loads, or be exposed to strong chemicals, check the technical data sheet for specific guidance. Many general purpose products are perfect for day to day work, while specialised tasks call for a system designed and tested for that environment. Using the right product first saves time, money, and rework. Aftercare and maintenance Adhesive joints are remarkably strong when used correctly. Design repairs so that routine loads are shared across a generous area. Where heavy vibration is present, pair the adhesive bond with appropriate mechanical fasteners. Keep cleaning chemicals mild, and avoid abrasive pads on visible joints. If a bond will be repainted, choose flexible paint where movement is expected, and keep edges sealed to prevent dirt tracking along the bond line. Recycling and disposal Allow empty containers to cure before disposal. Check local council guidance for recycling of plastics and metal cartridges. Never pour uncured product into drains or soil. Wipe tools on scrap material and let residue harden before placing in general waste. Smart handling keeps the workspace clean and reduces environmental impact.

3M™ Panel Bonding Adhesive (PN 08116) is a two-part epoxy designed to bond non-structural outer body sheet metal such as, but not limited to, quarter panels, roof panels, van sides, box sides and door skins Product Uses Bonding steel, aluminum, SMC and FRP (fiberglass) to themselves or each other. Use with the following applicators: PN08117 (manual), PN 09930 (pneumatic). 3M™ Mixing Nozzle, PN 08193 (6/bag), PN 08194 (50/box). For professional use only. Not intended for retail sale. The following times have been determined with ambient air temperature and substrate temperature @ 70°F and are considered typical values. WORK TIME: 90-120 minutes CLAMP TIME 6 hours CURE TIME: 24 hours SURFACE PREPARATION: 1. Wash surface with soap and water to remove water soluble contaminants. Follow the soap and water wash with an appropriate VOC compliant product for removal of surface contaminants. 2. Remove all rust, primer and paint from the areas to be bonded or welded using a Scotch-Brite™ Clean & Strip Disc or 3M grade 50 Grinding Disc. 3. Straighten all metal, and “dry-fit” the parts. 4. Clamp the part in place and check for fit and alignment. 5. Remove the panel from the vehicle. All areas to be welded should be coated with 3M™ Weld-Thru II Coating (PN 05917) according to the directions on the can. Adhesive should not be applied to these areas. PRODUCT PREPARATION: 6. Place an adhesive cartridge in the applicator gun. 7. Remove the retaining collar and plug from the end of the cartridge. Discard plug, but save the retaining collar. 8. Before attaching a nozzle, “equalize” the cartridge by dispensing just enough product to be sure that both parts A and B are present at the outlet. 9. Attach a 3M™ Static Mixing Nozzle to the cartridge and lock in place with the retaining collar. 10. Dispense a small amount of material through the mixing nozzle onto a disposable surface and discard. 11. Apply an adhesive bead to all bare metal surfaces of both pieces to be bonded. Using a plastic spreader or acid brush, tool out the adhesive to cover all bare metal surfaces. 12. Apply a 1/8" diameter adhesive bead approximately 1/4" from the inside edge of the replacement panel. • Quarter Panels: Adhesive should be applied to the lower edge, the wheel opening, the door jamb areas of the quarter, and at the factory seam of the sail panel. 3M suggests that the rear vertical portion of a quarter panel should be welded. It is acceptable to bond the rear vertical portion of a quarter panel, if recommended by the OEM. Additionally, most OEM’s only recommend full panel replacement. Should you perform a belt cut on a sail panel, 3M recommends welding the belt cut to ensure optimal cosmetic appearance. All areas to be welded should be sprayed with 3M™ Weld-Thru II (PN 05917). Do not apply adhesive to these areas. • Roof Panels: Adhesive should be applied around the perimeter of the roof anel. To replace the factory-applied NVH foam/spacer between the roof bow and the roof panel, use one of the following: 3M™ Urethane Seam Sealer (PN 08360, PN 08361 or PN 08364), 3M™ MSP Seam Sealer (PN 08369 or PN 08370), or 3M™ NVH Dampening Material (PN 04274) to the roof bows as needed. • Door Skins: Adhesive should be applied to the hem flange area. To replace the factory-applied NVH foam/spacer between the intrusion beam/s and the door skin, use one of the following: 3M™ Urethane Seam Sealer (PN 08360, PN08361 or PN 08364), 3M™ MSP Seam Sealer (PN 08369 or PN 08370), or 3M™ NVH Dampening Material (PN 04274) to the intrusion beam/s as needed. 13. Clamp the panel in its proper position. 14. Tool any adhesive “squeeze out” to seal the outside of the seam all along the bonded edge of the panel. • Caution: The adhesive is combustible. Keep any MIG welding a minimum of two inches from the adhesive. As with any welding operation, keep the appropriate fire extinguisher within reach, and be alert to any smoke or flame that may be present. Resistance spot welding through uncured adhesive is acceptable. 15. Spray the inside of quarter panels, interior cavities, and any welded seams with 3M™ Rust Fighter-I (PN 08891 or PN 08892). 16. Clamps may be removed after six hours at 73°F. Parts will need to remain clamped longer if the temperature is below 73°F and/or if there is any tension on the part. The cure time may be accelerated by applying heat with a heat gun or lamps. 17. Allow 24 hours at a minimum of 73°F before returning vehicle to service. CLEAN-UP: Unmixed material may be cleaned from most surfaces with an appropriate VOC compliant product.
