Product Description:

Devcon® 5 Minute® Epoxy is a rapid-curing, general-purpose adhesive and encapsulant designed for industrial applications. It bonds effectively to metals, fabrics, ceramics, glass, wood, and concrete, requiring minimal surface preparation.

With a 1:1 mix ratio, this epoxy has a working time of 3 – 6 minutes at 72°F (23°C) and reaches functional cure in 0.75 – 1 hour, achieving full cure in 12 hours​.

This adhesive provides high strength, toughness, and good solvent resistance, making it ideal for various bonding applications.


Key Features:

Minimal Surface Preparation: Bonds metals, fabrics, ceramics, glass, wood, and concrete with minimal surface prep.
Fast Cure Time: 3 – 6 minutes working time, handling strength in 10 – 15 minutes.
High Strength & Toughness: 1,900 psi shear strength, impact-resistant.
Good Solvent Resistance: 100% reactive, no solvents​.


Recommended Applications:

🔹 Industrial Manufacturing: Structural bonding in metal, fabric, ceramic, and composite components.
🔹 Automotive & Machinery: Fast repairs for mechanical and composite parts.
🔹 Household & DIY Repairs: Fixing glass, wood, and concrete applications​.
