PERMABOND ET500 is a two-part fast-setting epoxy adhesive which bonds to a wide variety of substrates such as wood, metal, ceramics and some plastics and composites. It cures rapidly at room temperature to give handling strength in approximately 5 minutes. This product is ideal for general purpose bonding. It is typically used for small component assembly and is suitable for applications that require a clear bond line.
Benefits
- High peel strength increases design versatility
- 1:1 mix ratio of most Permabond 2-component epoxies reduces equipment costs
- Set time 3 - 4 min
- Durability increases material choices
- Rapid cure increases production rates
- Room temperature cure reduces equipment & energy costs
- Solvent free improves workplace safety
- Low odour improves workplace environment

Comparison Note
PERMABOND ET500 is a general-purpose, fast-setting, clear epoxy adhesive, particularly valued for applications requiring a transparent bond line and quick handling strength. While many fast-set epoxies exist, its specific balance of clarity, speed, and broad material compatibility makes it a preferred choice for small component assembly and aesthetic bonding where a clear finish is critical. It is not particularly thixotropic and thus not suitable for gap filling more than 2mm, nor is it recommended for large surface areas due to its fast set time.
