Adhesives with Activator - Save Money on Fast-Setting Glues

The Tech-Bond Activator/Accelerator acts as a catalyst that dramatically speeds up the curing reaction of the SI Bonding Agent. When applied to the mating surface, it initiates cross-linking at the polymer or substrate level — creating a permanent molecular bond rather than a surface-level adhesive joint. This results in bonds stronger than many base materials.

Tech-Bond kits are engineered to bond difficult low-surface-energy materials including PTFE (Teflon), HDPE, Delrin (POM), polypropylene, nylon, silicone rubber, metal, and composites. These are materials that standard adhesives cannot reliably bond, making Tech-Bond's Polymer Bonding Process uniquely capable for industrial and engineering applications.

SI Blue is a standard thin-medium viscosity suited for general bonding tasks. SI Black is thicker, providing greater control for precision, overhead, or detailed applications. SI Green is ultra-thin and specifically designed for wicking into and repairing hairline cracks. Choose based on crack size, application orientation, and the level of control required.

Starter Kits are ideal for general maintenance with a wide price range for individual and commercial users. Basic Kits (Ranch Kits) are tailored for mechanics, handymen, and farm repair needs. Professional Kits are the most comprehensive, including Poly Prep, Bonding Agent, Activator, Filler, and Debonder — designed for engineers, technicians, and demanding industrial bonding tasks.

All Tech-Bond SI Bonding Agent kits and individual components should be stored in a refrigerator to achieve the longest possible shelf life. Before use, allow the product to return to room temperature. Proper storage prevents premature curing and ensures the activator and bonding agent remain effective throughout their usable life.

Yes. Tech-Bond kits — particularly the Professional and Deluxe Kits — are specifically designed for both field and shop environments. No special equipment is required, making them deployable for emergency pipeline repairs, on-site industrial maintenance, engineering prototyping, and precision fabrication in controlled workshop settings worldwide.
