Description
Low Viscosity Super Glue 20g – Industrial Cyanoacrylate Adhesive
This low viscosity super glue 20g is a fast-curing cyanoacrylate adhesive designed for industrial bonding of rubber, plastics and metals. Its thin consistency allows it to wick into tight joints, delivering strong bonds in seconds.
Perfect for production lines, repairs, assembly work, and general industrial bonding, this adhesive provides outstanding performance across a wide range of substrates including rubbers, plastics and metals.
Think of it as liquid lightning in a bottle: fast, clear, and seriously strong ⚡
What is low viscosity super glue used for?
- Wicking into tight joints
- Bonding rubber seals (EPDM, nitrile)
- Fast repairs on plastics
- Metal-to-metal quick fixes
For difficult plastics like PE or PP, see our Permabond 105 or structural adhesives.
Low vs Medium vs High Viscosity Super Glue
| Type | Best For | Gap Filling |
|---|---|---|

🧲 Typical Substrates
Bonds effectively to:
-
Nitrile Rubber
-
EPDM
-
Neoprene
-
Mild Steel

Polycarbonate
(Activator may be required for porous materials or low surface energy plastics such as PE or PP.)
🛠 Directions for Use
-
Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from grease or contaminants.
-
Apply sparingly to one surface only.
-
Join parts immediately and hold firmly until handling strength is achieved.
-
Full cure typically reached within 24 hours.
💡 Tip: Less adhesive = faster cure + stronger bond.
