When to use acrylic adhesives

Scotch-Weld 2-part acrylic, epoxy and urethane adhesives are available to help you meet different applicationrequirements. Consider Acrylic for thewidest range of substrates, includingplastics and oily metals.

Epoxy provides higher strength and elevated temperature resistance. Urethanes are lower cost and highlyelastic for applications requiring flexibility between dissimilar materials.
