Epoxy Adhesives

Chemistry Overview

ForzaBuilt epoxy adhesives provide maximum strength, chemical resistance, and long-term durability for structural and semi-structural bonding.

Epoxy adhesives are thermosetting polymers formed when an epoxide resin reacts with a hardener. The cured bond is rigid, high-strength, and resistant to chemicals, solvents, moisture, and heat.

Production Challenges We Help Solve

  • Bonding metals and rigid substrates where high tensile and lap shear strength are required.
  • Applications requiring resistance to chemicals, fuels, or solvents.
  • Gap filling in poorly fitted joints without loss of strength.
  • Long open times for complex assemblies that require repositioning.

Typical Use Cases

Aerospace and defense
Heavy equipment
Marine
Electronics potting and encapsulation
Oil and gas
Civil infrastructure repair
Tool and die
