Permabond 101 Cyanoacrylate Super Glue Instant Adhesive is a one component, ultra-low viscosity, fast curing adhesive that is ideal for bonding tight fitting and pre-assembled parts. It develops fast, strong bonds with a variety of materials such as metals, rubber, and plastics. Permabond 101 is useful in wicking or penetrating applications or bonding closely fitting parts. Surfaces should be clean, dry and grease-free before applying the adhesive. Use a suitable solvent (such as acetone or isopropanol) for the degreasing of surfaces. Some metals such as aluminium, copper and its alloys will benefit from light abrasion with emery cloth (or similar), to remove the oxide layer.
Features and Benefits
- Ultra-low viscosity
- Suitable for bonding pre-assembled parts
- Ideal for close-fitting plastic components
Approved to MIL-A-46050C Type II Class 1 (existing designs) & CID A-A-3097 Type II Class 1 (new designs)
Physical Properties of Uncured Adhesive
| Chemical Composition | Ethyl Cyanoacrylate |
| Appearance | Colorless/Clear |
| Viscosity @ 25°C | 2-3 mPa.s (cP) |
| Specific Gravity | 1.1 |
Typical Curing Properties
| Maximum gap fill | 0.05 mm (0.002 in) |
| Fixture/Handling time *
(0.3 N/mm^2 shear strength is achieved) |
3-5 seconds (Steel)
2-5 seconds (Buna N Rubber) 5-10 seconds (Phenolic) |
| Full strength | 24 hours |
*Handling times can be affected by temperature, humidity and specific surfaces being bonded. Larger gaps or acidic surfaces will also reduce cure speed but this can be overcome by the use of Permabond C Surface Activator (CSA) or Permabond QFS 16.
Typical Performance of Cured Adhesive

Product Name
Permabond 101 Instant Adhesive-Thin Wicking, Great for Plastic & Rubber
Brief Description
Permabond 101 is an ultra-low viscosity, fast-curing cyanoacrylate (instant) adhesive designed for wicking applications and bonding closely fitted or pre-assembled parts. It forms strong, lasting bonds rapidly at room temperature upon contact with surface moisture.
Popular Applications & Uses
- Wicking into pre-assembled components and micro-gaps- Bonding closely fitted parts- Sealing and reinforcing joints- Manufacturing of 'O' rings and gaskets- Automotive manufacturing- Electronics assembly- Plastic component bonding- Metal bonding in industrial settings- Locking plastic fasteners and tamper-proof adjustable fasteners
Industries that Commonly Use It
- Aerospace/Defense- Automotive Service/Repair- General Manufacturing- Government & Military- LED/Electronics- Metal Fabrication- Plastic Fabrication- Transportation/ Specialty Vehicle
Special and Unique Features
- Ultra-low viscosity for efficient penetration and wicking action into tight-fitting parts and micro-cracks- MIL-SPEC Compliant: Meets MIL-A-46050C Type II, Class 1 and CID A-A-3097 Type II, Class 1- Fast-setting formula, bonding plastics, rubber, and metals in seconds- Single-part adhesive, requiring no mixing- 100% Solids, Solvent-Free, making it environmentally friendly with no VOCs- Can be applied after assembly of components where parts need to be accurately aligned and/or adjusted prior to bonding

Known backups / known substitutes
- Loctite® 420- 3M™ Scotch-Weld™ CA5- Permatex® Wicking Grade Threadlocker- Permabond 801 (modified ethyl cyanoacrylate for high temperature resistance)- Permabond 947 (low odour, non-fogging, non-frosting alkoxyethyl cyanoacrylate)- Permabond 102 (general purpose)- Permabond 105 (for hard-to-bond plastics and rubbers)
Comparison Note
Permabond 101 stands out due to its ultra-low viscosity, making it exceptional for wicking into extremely tight gaps and pre-assembled components where other adhesives might struggle to penetrate. Its MIL-SPEC compliance further distinguishes it for demanding applications in aerospace, defense, and industrial sectors.
