Description
Structural Methacrylate Adhesive S1300 is a two-part A&B component system ideal for all types of bonding requirements on steel, aluminium, polycarbonates and general plastics.
This structural adhesive is also very good on vertical surface bonds because it is an MMA Methacrylate. As a result, it exhibits excellent structural strength even without priming the surfaces.
It is particularly suitable for model railway kits especially for the attachment of fine detailing, and between metal and plastic.

Automotive Manufacturing
S1300 can be used to bond composite panels to metal frames in vehicles, enhancing structural integrity while reducing weight. Its resistance to high temperatures and environmental conditions makes it ideal for automotive applications where durability and reliability are paramount.
Marine Construction
In boat manufacturing, S1300 is used to adhere bulkheads, decks, and hulls made of composites or metals, offering excellent resistance to water and salt, thereby preventing corrosion and ensuring the longevity of marine vessels.
Wind Turbine Assembly
This adhesive is perfect for bonding the large, composite parts of wind turbine blades. Its high strength and resistance to weathering make it an ideal choice for these applications, where a durable bond is critical for long-term operation in harsh environmental conditions.
Signage and Outdoor Displays
S1300’s ability to bond polycarbonates and metals makes it suitable for constructing outdoor signs and displays. It ensures a strong bond that can withstand environmental stresses such as wind, rain, and temperature fluctuations, maintaining the integrity of the signs.
Rail Industry Applications
It is used for bonding interior and exterior panels in the rail industry, including seating, windows, and door assemblies. The adhesive’s high strength and resistance to vibration and impact make it an excellent choice for the demanding conditions of rail transportation.
Aerospace Component Bonding
S1300 is also used in the aerospace industry to bond lightweight metal and composite components, contributing to the overall weight reduction of the aircraft while ensuring the safety and integrity of its parts under high stress and extreme conditions.
Medical Device Manufacturing
This adhesive is used to bond components of medical devices, where a strong, durable bond and resistance to sterilization processes are necessary. Its compatibility with a wide range of materials makes it suitable for various medical applications.
Electronics Assembly
S1300 is ideal for bonding components in electronic devices. It offers strong bonds with minimal conductivity, making it suitable for assembling parts in computers, mobile phones, and other electronic gadgets where electrical insulation is necessary.
Construction and Building
For architectural applications, such as bonding decorative panels or structural elements made from composites or metals, S1300 provides a durable bond that can handle the weight and stresses of building components, contributing to both the aesthetic and structural integrity of buildings.
Sports Equipment Manufacturing
This adhesive is used in the production of sports equipment, such as bonding carbon fibre components in bicycles, golf clubs, and racquets. Its high strength-to-weight ratio and resistance to impact make it ideal for creating lightweight yet durable sporting goods.
Fast setting
Structural Methacrylate Adhesive S1300 is fast setting when mixed via a static mixer nozzle at room temperatures.
Ideal for gap filling & vertical surface bonds
S1300 is a high viscosity non-sag material the mixed material is ideal for gap filling requirements on steel, aluminium, ABS polycarbonates and general plastics and is excellent where vertical surface bonds are required.
This structural glue macro structures the bond which possesses excellent durability high peel strength even in larger gaps and has excellent solvent and environmental resistance, resisting fuels, lubricants cleaning chemicals and fluids.
High peel strength
This structural adhesive provides excellent durable, high peel strength bonds even with big gaps between substrates.
Excellent environment resistance
This adhesive has excellent solvent and environmental resistance, resisting:
- Fuels
- Lubricants
- Cleaning chemicals and fluids
Useful for the structural joining
This structural methacrylate is particularly useful for the structural joining of metals, plastics, composite bonding and on ceramics where high impact strengths are needed.
Best used with
It is best applied by using the appropriately sized twin applicator gun (50ml or 400ml) and mixer nozzle (XM1001 or XM1004) – bought separately.

Customer asked questions
Question: We are looking for a rapid curing adhesive to bond the Aluminium outer of anti rodent strips to bottom of metal exterior fire door as it is unable to be drilled, can you please help?
Answer: We would suggest our S1300 2 part adhesive but we must stress that the adhesive will only be as strong as the substrate (specifically the metal door) especially if a painted metal which may need “cleaning” to achieve a bond. The second issue would be the aluminium –also needs a good clean & prep prior to bonding – Lucy, Product Support Manager
