Epoxy

Duralco(TM)4538N epoxy creates strong, flexible bonds between dissimilar materials. Users mix, apply, and cure the epoxy at room temperature to achieve bonds that withstand -150 to 450F and resist mechanical shock, electricity, and chemicals. Varying the mix ratio of resin to hardener adjusts the material's flexibility and adhesion.
