Polyurethane Wood Glue
Features and benefits
EVO-STIK Polyurethane Wood Glue is a fast-setting, high-strength wood adhesive that dries to form a bond stronger than the wood itself.
It's ideal for bonding all types of wood with a quick-drying formulation that allows joints to be carefully handled in as little as 5 minutes.
EVO-STIK Polyurethane Wood Adhesive is also suitable for hard, porous surfaces such as concrete, plaster and brick, as well as non-porous surfaces such as metals, foamed polystyrene, GRP and PVC.
Due to the excellent water resistance of EVO-STIK PU wood glue, it’s suitable for both interior and exterior use, providing a reliable bond that is long-lasting. Plus, once dry, it can also be sanded and painted.
Suitable materials: All wood types.
Sizes: 500ml bottle or 310ml cartridge.
HOW TO USE
Please note: EVO-STIK Polyurethane Wood Adhesive must only be used when one of the surfaces to be bonded is porous.
PREPARATION
1. Surfaces must be clean and free from any loose material or contamination such as grease etc.
2. Non-porous surfaces should be abraded to give a good key and porous surfaces should be moistened with water.
APPLICATION
3. Apply thin beads to one of the surfaces and then carefully press the two together.
4. Lightly clamp the substrates to produce a thin bond line.
5. In good conditions, the bond can be lightly handled after 5 minutes. Full cure will be achieved in about 24hrs at 25 degrees Celsius. For full drying times, see the TDS.
HOW TO REMOVE
Removal of PU wood adhesive is extremely difficult even when it is uncured. It is advisable to protect any vulnerable surfaces.
Uncured adhesive: Carefully scrape up excess adhesive and then remove the remains using acetone. It will be almost impossible to remove the uncured adhesive from cloths and porous or rough surfaces.
Cured adhesive: This can only be removed mechanically. The best time is when it has just cured.
FAQS
EVO-STIK's PU wood adhesive is a moisture curing, single part, polyurethane resin adhesive. It's commonly used as a mounting glue to bond wood and other materials together.
Supplied as a thixotropic paste, this EVO-STIK poly wood glue is perfect for applications where a non-drip formulation is beneficial, such as vertical or overhead bonding of mortise or tenon joints.
The glue's high-strength formula provides excellent water resistance and cures rapidly, meaning joints can, generally, be carefully handled after just 5 minutes!
PU wood glue bonds most wood and many other rigid porous surfaces such as concrete, plaster and brick, amongst non-porous surfaces such as metals, foamed polystyrene, GRP and PVC. However, one of the surfaces being bonded must be porous.
EVO-STIK Polyurethane Wood Glue must only be used when one of the surfaces to be bonded is porous. Non-porous surfaces should be abraded to give a good key.
Cured adhesive can only be removed mechanically. The best time is when it has just cured. It is therefore advisable to protect any vulnerable surfaces before application.
