WEICON Aluminium Minute Adhesive

Overview

WEICON Aluminium Minute Adhesive is a low-odour, two-component, aluminium-filled epoxy adhesive for bonding aluminium and other light metals to each other. It can be used to fill cracks and holes, for example in aluminium housings, and for repairing light alloy wheels. It is resistant to high temperatures up to +180°C and cures quickly at room temperature; after curing, the adhesive can be machined (filing, drilling, milling). It is gap-filling and non-dripping (thixotropic) with very high tensile and impact strength, dispensed from a double cartridge with a mixing nozzle.
