Product Description:

Devcon® 5 Minute® Epoxy Gel is a thixotropic, non-migrating gel adhesive designed for bonding metal, ceramic, wood, and vertical surfaces where gap-filling is needed. It provides excellent gap-filling properties, making it ideal for structural bonding applications.

With a 1:1 mix ratio, this epoxy has a working time of 4 – 7 minutes at 72°F (23°C) and reaches functional cure in 1.5 hours, achieving full cure in 48 hours.

This adhesive delivers high strength, good solvent resistance, and impact resistance, making it suitable for demanding industrial applications.


Key Features:

Minimal Surface Preparation: Bonds metals, ceramics, wood, and composites with minimal surface prep.
Non-Sag Gel Formula: Ensures controlled application on vertical and overhead surfaces.
Fast Cure Time: 4 – 7 minutes working time, handling strength in 10 – 15 minutes.
High Strength & Toughness: 2,500 psi shear strength, impact-resistant.
Good Solvent Resistance: Withstands exposure to oils, fuels, and industrial chemicals.


Recommended Applications:

🔹 Structural Bonding: Suitable for metal, ceramic, and wood applications.
🔹 Automotive & Machinery: Used for mechanical bonding and repairs.
🔹 Vertical & Overhead Applications: Ideal for gap-filling in uneven surfaces.
