Plexus® MA1020 is a two-part methacrylate adhesive with very low cure shrinkage and very low odor designed for structural bonding of thermoplastic, metal, and composite assemblies. Combined at a 10:1 ratio, MA1020 has a working time of 5 to 6 minutes and achieves approximately 75% of ultimate strength in 15 to 20 minutes at 74°F (23°C). This product is the standard for structural bonding because it requires virtually no surface preparation. In addition, this product provides a unique combination of excellent fatigue endurance, outstanding impact resistance, and superior toughness. Plexus MA1020 is available in blue and is supplied in a ready-to-use cartridge, 5-gallon (20-liter) pails, or 50-gallon (200-liter) drums to be dispensed as a non-sagging gel.
