Araldite 2015-1 is a two-part, room temperature curing Epoxy gel adhesive that's high-strength and very tough. It is thixotropic (Thick Gel that is also designed to fill cracks and crevices). It is great for bonding a wide variety of materials like metals, ceramics, glass, rubber, plastics and most other common DIY and shop materials. And it's uniquely capable of providing decent bond strength to PTFE/Teflon, as it includes chemical etch-ants, that prepares the PTFE like other separate primer products do.
2015-1 excels on jobs where two different surfaces need to be bonded (like metal and concrete, wood and plastic, etc.). Work Time: 30 minutes Handling Strength: 4 hours Color: semi-transparent clear Viscosity: Thick Gel thixotropic, so also fills voids, cracks and crevices)
Please Note: These cartridges are designed to work best with a cartridge Dispenser. We advise you use a Dispenser for either of these cartridge sizes: 50ml or 200ml. If you do not have a Dispenser, please check out our Dispensers, all are excellent products and have our 'it's good' seal of approval.
If you prefer not to use a Dispenser, then we recommend considering one of our Kits that include a variety of different accessories that you may need for fast small jobs.
Key Features
- 30 Min Working Time - Perfect for Craftsmen, DIY, and Industrial uses
- Toughened Thixotropic Paste (Thick non-sag Gel that will also fill gaps & crevices)
- Includes chemical etch-ants, making it uniquely capable to decently bond to difficult plastics like PTFE/Teflon.
- High Shear and Peal Strength
- Bonds to wide variety of materials, including Metals, plastics and non-metals like SMC & GRP
- SMC means (Sheet Moulding Compounds, typically FiberGlass sheets) & GRP means (Glass Reinforced Plastics)
- Thick Viscosity for Vertical Applications (yet thixotropic at same time)

Product Name
Huntsman Araldite 2015-1 Toughened Epoxy Gel for SMC & GRP (fiberglass) and bonding 2 different surfaces
Brief Description
Huntsman Araldite 2015-1 is a two-component, room temperature curing, paste adhesive that provides resilient and tough bonds. It is thixotropic and non-sagging, making it particularly suitable for gap-filling applications up to 10mm thickness and vertical surfaces. This epoxy gel is specifically designed for bonding SMC (Sheet Molding Compound) and GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) fiberglass, as well as a wide variety of dissimilar substrates.
Popular Applications & Uses
- Bonding of SMC (Sheet Molding Compound) and GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) / fiberglass components.- Automotive applications, including bonding truck parts and panels, reinforcing plastic components, and repairing areas like grilles and headlamp buckets.- Marine applications such as bonding boat decks and hulls.- Railway applications.- Assembly of mid-sized to large metal and composite parts.- General industrial bonding across various materials.- Repair and reinforcement of plastic components.- Bonding of moving parts.
Industries that Commonly Use It
- Aerospace/Defense- Automotive Service/Repair- Cabinet & Woodworking- Cladding- Concrete- Construction/Building Services- Countertop- Fabrication- General Manufacturing- Government & Military- LED/Electronics- Marine- Metal Fabrication- Plastic Fabrication- Transportation/Specialty Vehicle
Special and Unique Features
- Toughened paste formulation for enhanced durability and impact resistance.- Two-component system that cures at room temperature.- Thixotropic and non-sagging up to 10mm thickness, making it ideal for gap-filling and vertical applications.- Provides resilient, high-strength, and durable bonds.- Excellent resistance to dynamic loading, weathering, and good fatigue performance.- High fracture toughness.- Capable of bonding a wide range of dissimilar substrates effectively.- Exhibits low shrinkage upon curing.- Uniquely capable of providing decent bond strength to PTFE/Teflon due to included chemical etchants that prepare the surface.

Comparison Note
Huntsman Araldite 2015-1 is recognized as a specialized epoxy adhesive with advanced formulations that deliver superior performance characteristics compared to many standard epoxy adhesives. It offers enhanced bond strength and specific features like thixotropy and toughening, making it suitable for demanding industrial applications. While substitutes like Infinity Bond EP 190 share similar properties, they may differ in aspects such as work life, handling strength, and shelf life. American-made offsets, such as MakoBond AP-160, are designed to meet or exceed the industry standards of products like Araldite 2015, often providing benefits related to supply chain reliability.
