Frequently Asked Questions – Construction Adhesives
What surfaces can construction adhesive be used on?
Our adhesives are designed to bond a wide range of materials including timber, metal, concrete, brick, plasterboard, MDF, and laminate. Many formulas are suitable for both porous and non-porous substrates, making them versatile for almost any building application.
What’s the difference between cartridge and sausage adhesives?
Cartridge adhesives are ideal for smaller projects or precision applications. Sausage packs are used with bulk applicators and are more efficient for larger jobs — reducing waste and improving coverage.
Are construction adhesives waterproof?
Many of our adhesives are water-resistant or waterproof once cured. This makes them suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, including wet areas like bathrooms or exposed external applications.
How long does construction adhesive take to cure?
Cure time depends on the product and environmental conditions. Rapid-cure adhesives can set in minutes, while others may require several hours to fully cure. Always refer to the manufacturer’s instructions for best results.
Can I paint over construction adhesive?
Once fully cured, most construction adhesives can be painted or sealed over. This allows for a clean, professional finish without compromising the bond.
Do I need fasteners as well as adhesive?
For some structural applications, adhesives can be used in combination with mechanical fasteners for maximum strength. In many interior fit-outs, high-grab adhesives alone provide sufficient hold.
