Description
Toughened epoxy resin 2605 is an epoxy adhesive and part of our structural bonding range. Capable of bonding aluminium, steel, engineered plastics and composites together. Excellent for bonding patina metals such as brass, copper, bronze and similar metals and metal alloys. Our epoxy is the number one choice when bonding malleable metals.
Often specified when bonding a variety of surfaces, such as worktop joints, glass and plastic components. Potting and encapsulating sensors, fasteners onto gel coated parts and wood, metals and glass in the furniture industry. This product has good temperature resistance, tensile and shear performance.
Working time: 3 – 4 minutes
Fixture time: 5 – 7 minutes
Temperature range: -50°C to +60°C
Available in 25ml, 50ml and 400ml.

Epoxy product information
Toughened epoxy resin 2605 is a typical two part system (a hardener and a resin) that, when mixed, will solidify due to polymerisation. This chemistry is very stable and can be modified and filled with ease, allowing us to attain a wide variety of cured attributes from a single base product. For example, silver can be added to attain conductivity, quartz fillers can be added to improve impact resistance.
This versatile chemistry produces typically long open times and rigid bonds, and is available in a range of viscosities; from flowable liquids to thixotropic pastes.
How to apply toughened epoxy resin 2605
Our toughened epoxy resin 2605 has a 3 – 4 minute working life with a 5 – 7 minute fixture time. Before dispensing, ensure that surfaces are clean, dry and free of any dirt, dust and grease. For the best results, we recommend using CTA IPA Cleaner Degreaser.
- Use sufficient pressure over the whole surface at room temperature to ensure maximum adhesion to substrates.
- The ideal application temperature is between 15 – 25°C.
- Primers can increase the bond durability and surface tension for difficult to bond materials. We recommend CTA Primer or CTA UV Identifiable Primer to achieve the best results.
- Ensure uniform stress distribution.
