TOUGHENED ACRYLIC FORMULA: Permabond TA4820 is a 2-part, 1:1 mix ratio methyl methacrylate adhesive delivering high shear strength up to 4000 psi on steel and excellent peel strength of 15–20 PIW.
VERSATILE SUBSTRATE BONDING: Bonds metals, thermoplastics, thermosets, and composites, including PVC, SMC, fiberglass, aluminum, and PPO to HIPS, often achieving substrate failure — the strongest possible bond.
LONG OPEN TIME FOR PRECISE ALIGNMENT: With a pot life of 10–15 minutes and a fixture time of 25–35 minutes at 73°F, there is ample working time to position and align parts before the adhesive sets.
IMPACT & CHEMICAL RESISTANCE: Toughened formulation provides good impact strength and 15–20% elongation at break, plus resistance to industrial solvents and fuels for demanding environments.
EASY APPLICATION: Thixotropic, non-sag adhesive is compatible with static mixing nozzles, fills gaps up to 0.08 in, and reaches full cure in 24 hours at room temperature with no primer required on most substrates.
Description
Permabond TA4820 is a high-performance, 2-part toughened acrylic adhesive designed for demanding bonding applications across metals, thermoplastics, thermosets, and composites. Mixed at a convenient 1:1 ratio, it delivers a cream-colored, thixotropic paste that won't sag on vertical surfaces and can fill gaps up to 0.08 inches. With a pot life of 10–15 minutes and a fixture time of 25–35 minutes, you get ample working time for precise part alignment before the bond sets. Shear strength on steel reaches up to 4,000 psi, while peel strength hits 15–20 PIW, making it ideal for structural assemblies subject to impact and vibration. The cured adhesive operates reliably from -40°F and resists industrial solvents and fuels. No primer is required for most substrates, and full cure is achieved at room temperature within 24 hours. Available in 50 ml and 400 ml cartridges compatible with standard static mixing nozzles for clean, consistent dispensing every time.
