Heavy Duty Adhesive: Adiseal Strong Construction Bond

Adiseal heavy duty adhesive has been shown to be the strongest adhesive in an independent adhesive strength test. The test carried out by Ultimate Handyman showed Adiseal to be a lot stronger than other adhesives with it being over 3 times stronger than the nearest competitor. Adiseal heavy duty construction grab adhesive provides a strong, flexible, waterproof and durable bond on many different building materials.

Best heavy duty construction grab adhesive in independent test.

Adhesive Strength Test

Ultimate Handyman conducted independent adhesive strength tests on various adhesives, applying them between wood and metal surfaces and measuring their breaking points using a hydraulic ram.

Adiseal heavy duty adhesive demonstrated exceptional strength, surpassing the nearest competitor by over three times. Its strength was so remarkable that it began to affect the test rig’s screws, causing them to tear out due to the pressure exerted by the hydraulic ram. As a result, the test on Adiseal had to be terminated.

How to use a heavy duty adhesive

How to use a heavy duty adhesive

  1. Surface Preparation

    Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from contaminants like dust or grease. Remove any old adhesive or finishes if needed.

  2. Application

    Apply the adhesive to one of the surfaces in a consistent manner, following the manufacturer’s instructions regarding quantity and coverage.

  3. Joining Surfaces

    Press the two surfaces together firmly. Apply even pressure to ensure proper contact between the adhesive and both surfaces. Clamps or supports might be used if necessary to hold the surfaces in place while the adhesive sets.

  4. Curing Time

    Allow the adhesive to cure completely. The curing time can vary based on factors like temperature, humidity, and the specific adhesive used. Avoid subjecting the bonded surfaces to stress or load until the adhesive has fully cured.

Adiseal vs Gorilla Heavy Duty Grab Adhesive

During thorough testing conducted by Ultimate Handyman, Gorilla Heavy Duty Grab Adhesive underwent rigorous examination alongside Adiseal. In the metal-to-metal adhesive strength test, Gorilla Grab Adhesive fractured at 166 psi, while Adiseal surpassed it, breaking impressively at 245 psi. In the wood-to-metal adhesive strength test, Gorilla Grab Adhesive fractured at 862 psi, while Adiseal excelled, reaching an astonishing 3123 psi without any signs of breaking.

These independent tests firmly demonstrate Adiseal’s superior strong adhesive bond in both metal-to-metal and wood-to-metal applications when compared to Gorilla Grab Adhesive, solidifying Adiseal as the ultimate choice for outstanding adhesive strength and unmatched performance.

Benefits of Adiseal

Other benefits of Adiseal include:


Strongest adhesive & sealant in independent test.


Extra heavy duty adhesive

Adiseal heavy duty builders adhesive has high initial grab but for even more instant grab, use the Adiseal Hi-Grab extra heavy duty adhesive. Although the adhesive bond strength of both products is similar, for most adhesive applications we recommend the Adiseal products over the Hi-Grab product. The reason for this is because the Hi-Grab product is a thick product so requires a lot higher force to push the 2 surfaces together.
