PERMABOND PT328

Main features

  • 15-20 Minute Pot Life
  • 5 mm Gap Filling
  • 12-18 MPa Steel Shear

Product Description

Permabond PT328 is a two-part, room-temperature-curing polyurethane adhesive for bonding metals, plastics, and composites. Its 1:1 mix ratio and 15-20 minute pot life provide time for large-area assembly, while the thixotropic, non-slump rheology supports controlled placement. The material fills gaps up to 5 mm and reaches handling strength on steel in 90-120 minutes at 23 deg C. After cure, it provides 12-18 MPa shear strength on steel together with documented impact and vibration resistance. Applications include large bonded assemblies that require broad substrate coverage and an extended processing window.

Key features

  • Large-Area Work Window: Provides a 15-20 minute pot life for extended assembly operations.
  • 5 mm Gap Fill: Fills bond gaps up to 5 mm with a 1:1 mix ratio.
  • Impact and Vibration Resistance: Cured polyurethane supports assemblies exposed to impact and vibration.

Applications

Applications include large-area bonding of metals, plastics, and composites, including assemblies exposed to impact or vibration.
