STRUCTURAL EPOXY ADHESIVE PERFORMANCE
TECHNIGLUE® R60 is engineered for demanding bonding applications where structural strength, durability and substrate versatility are critical.
The formulation provides excellent adhesion to porous and non-porous materials including timber, composites, metals and concrete, allowing reliable bonding across mixed-material assemblies.
The thixotropic gel consistency ensures the adhesive remains in place during application, maintaining consistent bondline thickness while filling gaps between irregular surfaces.
This makes TECHNIGLUE R60 particularly effective for construction, marine and composite fabrication applications, where reliable bonding across large structural components is required.

WHAT IS A STRUCTURAL EPOXY ADHESIVE?
Structural epoxy adhesives are high-performance two-part systems designed to bond components that experience mechanical load, vibration and environmental exposure.
Unlike laminating resins, structural adhesives are formulated with thixotropic fillers that allow the adhesive to maintain thickness within the bondline while filling gaps between irregular surfaces.
This enables reliable bonding in applications such as:
• Timber and laminated beams
• Composite structures
• Metal frameworks
• Concrete and masonry assemblies
• Hybrid composite-metal structures
Once cured, structural epoxy adhesives form high-strength thermoset bonds with excellent durability and chemical resistance.
WHEN TO USE TECHNIGLUE R60
Use R60 when:
• Your project involves multiple materials
• You need one adhesive across the entire build
• Bond surfaces are uneven or require gap filling
• You need reliable structural strength in varied conditions
• You want to standardise on a single adhesive system
BUILT FOR REAL-WORLD BUILDS
TECHNIGLUE® R60 is designed to integrate into real-world workflows where multiple materials are used across a single structure.
Using one structural adhesive across the build reduces:
• Material complexity
• Application variability
• Risk of adhesive mismatch
This enables more efficient assembly and consistent structural performance.

TECHNICAL DATA SHEETS
What materials can TECHNIGLUE R60 bond?
TECHNIGLUE R60 bonds effectively to timber, concrete, metals, fibreglass, stone, plastic and composite materials, making it suitable for structural bonding applications where multiple substrates must be joined reliably.
TECHNIGLUE R60 is a structural epoxy adhesive designed for multi-material bonding, including timber, metal, concrete and composite substrates. Its gap-filling, non-sag formulation makes it suitable for applications where traditional adhesives cannot maintain bondline thickness or structural integrity.
HOW TECHNIGLUE® R60 COMPARES TO TOUGHENED ADHESIVES
TECHNIGLUE R60 and R15 serve different structural bonding roles.
R60 — Multi-Material Structural Adhesive
• Designed for bonding across timber, composites, concrete and metals
• Excellent gap filling and surface tolerance
• Ideal for large assemblies and varied substrates
R15 — Toughened Structural Adhesive
• Optimised for metal-to-metal bonding
• High peel resistance at metal interfaces
• Used where fatigue and peel performance are critical
For applications requiring toughened metal-to-metal bonding with enhanced peel resistance, see TECHNIGLUE R15 Toughened Adhesive.
