Huntsman Araldite 2011 A/B
Multipurpose toughened room-temperature epoxy for metals, glass, ceramics, rubber, rigid plastics and wood.
This is two-part epoxy, so everything true of that chemistry applies here too.
We may earn a commission from links on this page. It never changes which adhesive we recommend.

What it bonds
Where the manufacturer names a material, we quote them. Where we have assessed it ourselves, we say so and grade it lower. The two are never merged.

Preparation
Clean, dry and mechanically prepare surfaces as appropriate to the substrate and service environment.
Limitations
The broad scope is not an exact-pair test. Water and weathering tables are product tests, not guarantees for every substrate interface.
