Loxeal Metalox Metal Repair Epoxy 25ml Bi-Syringe (Single)
Loxeal Metalox is a solvent-free, fast-curing, metal-filled two-part epoxy engineered for repairing and bonding metal components. This listing is for a single 25ml bi-syringe supplied with a mixing nozzle, so you can buy exactly what one job needs without committing to a trade pack. Its thixotropic (non-sag) paste works as an adhesive filler, rebuilding metal castings, pipework and flanges, and once cured it can be machined, sanded and painted, typically within a few hours of application.
Why choose Loxeal Metalox?
-
Single 25ml bi-syringe with mixing nozzle, accurately proportioned 1:1 dispensing on every repair
-
Fast cure, handling strength in around 15 minutes, sandable in about 5 hours at room temperature
-
Strong on steel, lap shear strength of 21 N/mm² on grit-blasted mild steel
-
Machinable, sandable and paintable after polymerisation, even for outdoor repairs
-
Non-sag thixotropic paste stays put on vertical and overhead surfaces
- Excellent resistance to water and many chemical agents
- Heat cure option: 1 hour at +60°C speeds cure and boosts final strength
Typical applications
- Repairing metal castings, pipework and flanges
- Automotive body repair and panel filling
- Bonding metal substrates, plus concrete, wood and other rigid materials
- Maintenance and plant repairs where downtime must be kept short
How to use
- Scratch or abrade the surface, then degrease with Loxeal Cleaner 10 or acetone and allow to dry.
- Fit the mixing nozzle to the bi-syringe and discard the first 3 to 5 cm of extruded product.
- Apply the mixed adhesive directly to the repair area; work at temperatures above +15°C.
- Assemble or shape immediately and leave undisturbed until cured.
- Once cured (sandable after about 5 hours at +25°C), machine, sand or paint as required.
Cure times
- Pot life: approximately 5 minutes at +25°C
- Handling strength: approximately 15 minutes
- Sandable: about 5 hours at +25°C (90% of final hardness)
- Accelerated cure: 1 hour at +60°C for full resistance sooner

Buying more than one?
If you go through Metalox regularly, the Metalox trade pack of 10 x 25ml bi-syringes works out cheaper per syringe.
Important notes
- Apply at temperatures above +15°C; higher temperatures and large mixed quantities reduce pot life
- Avoid mixing excess product, the curing reaction generates heat
- Cured adhesive can only be removed mechanically
- Store in a cool, dry place at no more than +25°C
