PERMABOND® ET5003 is a two-part, fast curing, thixotropic adhesive. It is primarily designed for repairing metal substrates. The controlled flow properties as well as its ease of mixing and application, enables the adhesive to be used where some gap filling is required.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
- Easy to apply
- High shear strength
- Fast setting
- Full cure at room temperature
- Sandable and paintable after a short period of tim
