GorillaPro® EP5 is an excellent non-sag, general-purpose, two-component epoxy adhesive with an opaque white color. It sets quickly and is commonly used for sealing, gap filling, fixturing, and tacking in industrial and electrical applications. It forms strong bonds with materials such as aluminum, epoxy, glass, wood, and stone. The adhesive is thixotropic and sag resistant, and it comes in a convenient DOUBLE/BUBBLE® 4.5 gm packet.

Product Features

Permanently Bond Almost Anything
Epoxy adhesives are higher strength solutions and prevent surfaces from moving. Urethane adhesives retain flexibility and are better suited for structures that contract or expand with temperature. These products offer good chemical resistance, which reduces repeated or nagging repair cycles. GorillaPro epoxies and urethanes can permanently bond almost anything, including engineered thermoplastics, thermosets, nylon, composites, e-coat, and metals.

  • Strong, rigid bonding
  • Excellent resistance to heat and chemicals
  • Withstands constant weight or force over time

High-Performance MRO Solutions
Proactive maintenance can help prevent costly unplanned downtime. It’s a challenge keeping up with maintenance activities while keeping teams trained, equipment operating, and driving productivity. With a full complement of maintenance adhesives, repair epoxies, lubricants, and sealants, GorillaPro products can repair and improve the reliability of almost any piece of equipment or machinery.

Typical Uses

This non-sag, fast-setting epoxy can be used to repair tools, auto parts, electrical and electronic components, furniture and other applications that require a fast-setting adhesive. Ideal for quick, permanent, vertical and overhead repairs. For fixturing, tacking, sealing, gap filling and staking in electrical and industrial applications.

Curing Process:The cure schedule is dependent upon the temperature. The recommended cure schedule will vary with the desired properties.

Application Instruction

Instruction:

The surface must be clean and dry before application. Remove all chemicals, dirt, wax, and oil. These materials are intended for industrial use only. Fold the DOUBLE/BUBBLE® package along the center seal, snip the end, squeeze out the contents, mix thoroughly and apply.
GorillaPro® EP5 - Application Instruction
Avoid contamination with oxidized metals (such as copper, brass, or mild steel), and rust or other metal oxides. The stability of the product is greatly reduced by materials such as strong acids or bases, sulfur compounds, amines, or reducing agents of any type. Surfaces to be bonded must be clean, dry and free from grease, oil, wax, weak oxide films, and other contaminants.
