Superior bonding strength and elasticity
TotalBoat Polyester Structural Marine Repair Putty is a tough, resilient resin mixed with long strand milled glass fibers to provide resilience, maximum impact resistance and elasticity so it won’t crack as it ages. It’s ideal for marine applications where high-strength structural bonds are critical, including:
- Bonding the deck to the hull
- Bonding stringers to the hull
- Bonding the liner to the hull
- Bonding and filleting bulkheads
- Tabbing in the fittings
Versatile putty with a wide range of uses
This general-purpose marine structural bonding adhesive can also be used to join & fillet fiber-reinforced plastic parts, and bond dissimilar materials such as metal and wood. In addition to bonding, TotalBoat Polyester Structural Repair Marine Putty can be used for filling larger voids and cracks in composites, radius forming, and fabricating composite parts. Its high strength and versatility make this fast-setting structural adhesive, filler, and repair compound a must for any composites shop.
