Product Description

Achieve professional-grade, permanent bonds with our high-strength Contact Adhesive Glue, offered in a substantial 5-litre can for workshops, construction sites, and large-scale projects. This powerful solvent-based Contact Adhesive Glue is formulated to create an exceptionally strong and flexible bond between a vast array of materials, including wood, laminate, plastic, foam, rubber, fabric, and metal. The unique “contact” bonding method involves applying a thin, even coat to both surfaces to be joined, allowing it to become touch-dry, and then pressing them together for an instant, high-strength adhesion. This 5-litre Contact Adhesive Glue produces a waterproof and heat-resistant bond that remains durable under stress, making it the go-to choice for countertop laminate installation, automotive trim, upholstery, flooring underlayment, and DIY crafts. With its high coverage and reliable performance, this bulk 5-litre Contact Adhesive Glue is an essential, cost-effective adhesive for serious craftsmen, builders, and manufacturers.

What is the “Contact” Bonding Method and How Does It Work?

The “contact” in Contact Adhesive Glue refers to its specific application technique. Unlike traditional glues that bond while wet, this adhesive requires both surfaces to be coated and allowed to dry until tacky (usually 10-20 minutes). Once the solvents evaporate and the adhesive is dry to the touch, the two surfaces are carefully aligned and pressed together. Upon contact, the coated surfaces instantly fuse, creating an incredibly strong bond. This method is the key advantage of Contact Adhesive Glue, as it eliminates the need for clamps and allows for immediate handling of the bonded item, making it perfect for large or awkward materials like laminate sheets.

What Materials Can This 5-Litre Adhesive Bond?
This professional-grade 5-litre Contact Adhesive Glue is incredibly versatile. It is specifically engineered to bond:
– Laminates to wood or particle board (countertops, cabinets)
– Wood to wood, foam, or fabric
– Foam for upholstery, bedding, and soundproofing
– Rubber and Leather in footwear and automotive applications
– Many Plastics and  Metals
Its ability to bond dissimilar materials makes this 5-litre Contact Adhesive Glue a staple in multiple industries.

Is the Bond Truly Waterproof and Heat Resistant?
Yes, when fully cured, the bond created by this solvent-based Contact Adhesive Glue is both waterproof and resistant to moderate heat. This makes it ideal for kitchen countertops, bathroom vanities, and outdoor furniture where exposure to moisture and temperature variation is common. The cured adhesive forms a flexible, impervious layer that prevents water ingress and can withstand temperatures typically encountered in household environments, ensuring a long-lasting, reliable bond for your projects.

What Safety Precautions Are Necessary When Using This Adhesive?
Due to its solvent-based formula, using this 5-litre Contact Adhesive Glue requires careful safety measures. It is crucial to work in a well-ventilated area to avoid inhaling fumes. The use of appropriate PPE —such as nitrile gloves and safety goggles—is mandatory to prevent skin and eye contact. The adhesive is also  highly flammable in its liquid state, so keep it away from all sources of ignition, sparks, or heat until fully dry. Always read the product’s Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) before using this Contact Adhesive Glue.

What is the Coverage and Drying Time for a 5-Litre Can?
Coverage depends on the porosity of the material and application thickness, but a 5-litre can of Contact Adhesive Glue typically covers between 80 and 120 square meters when applied as a thin, even coat. Drying time to a tack-free state is usually 10-20 minutes at room temperature, but it can vary with humidity and ventilation. Full curing strength for this Contact Adhesive Glue is achieved in 24-72 hours. The large 5-litre size is designed for efficiency, reducing the frequency of purchases for high-volume users.
