Marble Adhesive
Marble Adhesive: Strong Bond on Marble, Granite, Stone
Adiseal marble adhesive is a high-performance product that can bond marble, granite and other stone to various materials. It provides a high-strength bond that remains waterproof and flexible. This ensures a strong and long-lasting bond on marble or granite. Adiglue can be used as a versatile glue for marble or granite.
Why Adiseal is a great adhesive for marble and granite
Adiseal is the perfect adhesive for marble, granite and stone due to its record-breaking strength, flexibility, waterproof properties, and other key features:

- Unmatched strength: Adiseal has undergone independent testing and proven to be the strongest adhesive and sealant available.
- Flexible and durable: It maintains flexibility to accommodate vibrations and movements without weakening or becoming brittle.
- Waterproof performance: Adiseal is fully waterproof, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications, including underwater use.
- No priming required: Save time and money as Adiseal does not require priming, as long as the surface is clean.
- Non-staining formula: Adiseal won’t stain or bleed into marble, granite, stone, or other porous materials, preserving their appearance.
- Excellent gap-filling properties: Even on uneven surfaces, Adiseal provides high gap fill capabilities for a strong bond.
- Strong initial grab: Adiseal offers a high initial grab, reducing the need for temporary supports during the curing process. Adiseal Hi-Grab is available for more demanding applications where even higher initial grab is required.
Performance
The record breaking strongest Adiseal adhesive and sealant will bond and seal on many different materials.

In a demonstration, we bonded a concrete block and marble using Adiseal adhesive and sealant. Despite both materials being porous, we achieved a strong bond without the need for surface sealing. Adiseal’s exceptional performance properties allow it to adhere to porous surfaces without bleeding or staining concerns.
Strongest adhesive in independent test
In an independent adhesive strength test, Adiseal surpassed its closest competitor by over three times in adhesive strength. The test had to be stopped at 3123 psi as the screws securing the test rig started to tear out. Adiseal would have achieved even greater strength if the screws had not given way.

Adiseal Adhesive Sealant vs Adiseal Hi-Grab
For an adhesive with higher strong initial grab, consider Adiseal Hi-Grab. It provides an even stronger initial grab than the standard Adiseal adhesive, making it perfect for heavy-duty applications or scenarios where temporary supports cannot be used during the curing process. Both Adiseal adhesive sealant and Adiseal Hi-Grab offer comparable final bond strength.


How to bond wood to marble or granite
Adiseal bonds wood to marble, granite and other stone effectively, creating a strong and durable bond suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications. Before applying the adhesive, it’s crucial to ensure clean surfaces free from dust, grease, paint, or any other debris. Using a fine brush, such as a painting brush, can help remove fine dust and prepare the surfaces for bonding.

Before applying the adhesive, ensure the concrete surface is dust-free. We recommend using a fine brush like a painting brush to remove fine dust from masonry.
Once the surfaces are clean, apply the adhesive to either the wood or marble and firmly press them together. When bonding in a potentially wet area, apply Adiseal in thin vertical strips to allow water to run down between the strips and prevent water buildup that can weaken the bond. In cold temperatures, this water may freeze and expand, compromising the bond.
Temporary supports may not be necessary, but if the wood or marble starts to slide, consider using temporary supports until the adhesive cures, which can take up to 48 hours.
As wood tends to absorb moisture and expand, it’s crucial to use a flexible adhesive when bonding wood to marble. This flexibility allows for expansion and contraction without making the bond brittle.
For added safety when bonding heavy wood or marble items in vertical or overhead applications, it is recommended to use mechanical fixings along with an adhesive.
How to bond metal to marble or granite
To bond metal to marble or granite effectively with Adiseal, follow these steps:
- Ensure both surfaces are clean.
- Some metals may have an oil coating; remove it with Adisolve, effective against oil, grease, tar, and stubborn residues.
- For a stronger bond (though not necessary), lightly scratch the metal where the adhesive will be applied, then clean to remove loose metal particles.
- Apply the adhesive and firmly press the metal to the marble. Use temporary supports if needed or consider using Adiseal Hi-Grab adhesive for enhanced grip.
- For safety with heavy metal items in vertical or overhead applications, use mechanical fixings alongside the adhesive for a secure and reliable bond.
These steps ensure a reliable bond between metal and marble using Adiseal.
How to bond plastic to marble or granite
To bond plastic to marble or granite using Adiseal, follow these steps:
- Clean the plastic surface thoroughly to remove dust, oil, grease, paint, or dirt.
- While it’s optional, lightly scratching the plastic can enhance the bond strength (not required).
- Note that Adiseal is suitable for some plastics like PVC but not for others such as polypropylene and polyethylene.
- Apply Adiseal to either the plastic or marble surface.
- Press the plastic firmly onto the marble. Use temporary supports if there’s any movement.
- Allow up to 48 hours for Adiseal to fully cure.
This process ensures a strong bond between plastic and marble using Adiseal.
How to stick marble or granite with adhesive
How to stick marble or granite with adhesive
- Prepare the surfaces
Ensure that both the marble / granite surface and the surface you want to bond it to are clean, dry, and free from dust, dirt, grease, or any other contaminants.
- Apply the adhesive
Apply a thin, even layer of adhesive to either the marble / granite surface or the surface you want to bond it to. You can use a brush or a suitable applicator to spread the adhesive evenly.
- Press and hold
Carefully align the marble / granite piece with the target surface and firmly press it into place. Apply even pressure across the entire surface to ensure a strong bond. Hold the marble / granite in place for a few moments to allow the adhesive to start bonding.
- Cure time
Follow the instructions provided by the adhesive manufacturer regarding the recommended curing time. Adiseal typically takes around 24-48 hours to fully cure, but the exact time may vary depending on factors such as temperature and humidity.
- Avoid movement
Avoid disturbing or putting stress on the bonded marble / granite during the curing process. This will help ensure a strong and durable bond.
To ensure safety when bonding heavy marble, granite, stone, brick, tile, or other masonry items, it is recommended to use mechanical fixings in addition to an adhesive for vertical and overhead applications. This dual approach provides added stability and support, reducing the risk of the bonded items detaching or falling.
Tip: When bonding items in a potentially wet environment, apply the adhesive in thin vertical strips. This enables water to drain between the strips, preventing it from pooling on the adhesive. Accumulated water can freeze in cold temperatures, exerting extra forces on the adhesive.
Glue for marble or granite
Adiglue can be used to glue marble or glue granite, but it is not as flexible or strong as Adiseal construction adhesive & sealant or Adiseal Hi-Grab adhesive.
In the provided example, a metal handle was successfully glued to a heavy concrete slab using Adiglue. Prior to applying the adhesive, the concrete surface was sealed with Adiglue Activator to prevent absorption. However, when using Adiseal adhesive & sealant or Adiseal Hi-Grab to attach the metal handle to concrete, marble or granite, concrete sealing is not necessary.

To demonstrate the capabilities of Adiglue, we successfully bonded bricks together and also attached bricks to MDF using this adhesive. In order to ensure proper bonding, it was necessary to seal both the brick and MDF surfaces with Adiglue Activator before applying the glue for marble or granite.
