Acrylic Adhesives

Chemistry Overview

ForzaBuilt acrylic adhesives deliver fast-curing, high-strength structural bonds for metals, composites, plastics, and mixed substrates.

Acrylic adhesives are two-component reactive systems that cure at room temperature to form tough, impact-resistant structural bonds. They provide strong peel and shear performance while retaining flexibility for vibration, thermal cycling, and dynamic loading.

Production Challenges We Help Solve

  • Bonding dissimilar substrates such as metal-to-composite or plastic-to-metal without mechanical fasteners.
  • Achieving fast fixture times in high-volume production environments.
  • Maintaining bond integrity through wide temperature swings and constant vibration.
  • Replacing welding, riveting, or mechanical fastening to reduce weight and cost.

Typical Use Cases

Transportation (buses, trucks, trailers)
Marine fabrication
Industrial equipment assembly
Signage and display
Renewable energy panels
White goods manufacturing
