G/flex Epoxy Adhesive belongs in every boater's repair kit. Get a waterproof, flexible bond on plastic, fiberglass, aluminum, wood and more.
  • It makes structural bonds that can absorb the stresses of expansion, contraction, shock and vibration.
  • In addition to its superior bonding to many different materials and its ability to bond dissimilar materials, G/flex is much more flexible than other epoxies. This is an excellent property for boat building and repair.
  • Polyethylene (HDPE) is a common kayak and canoe material. Its molecular structure resists gluing by most adhesives. G/flex solves the problem; it bonds well to polyethylene and ABS plastics.
  • After mixing, at 72 degrees F, you have about 45 minutes to apply the mixture before it begins to gel.
  • You have up to 75 minutes to assemble and clamp parts after the adhesive is applied. It cures to a solid in 3-4 hours, to a workable cure in 7-10 hours, and cures to its full strength in one to two days. It cures faster in warmer temperatures and slower in colder ones.
  • Clean up is simple. Wipe up spills with absorbent materials. Clean residue before it cures, with alcohol or acetone.
  • G/flex adheres tenaciously to difficult-to-glue hardwoods, both tropical and domestic varieties.
  • It has the ability to glue damp woods. It can be used on wet surfaces, even underwater when applied with specific techniques.
  • G/flex does indeed belong in every boater's repair kit. The more you use it, the more uses you'll find for it - with your boating gear and other sporting and household items. It's easy to mix and use. The instructions that come with the kit are top notch.
The 650-8 contains 4 oz. each of viscous liquid G/flex 650 resin and hardener. Mixing ratio is 1:1.  Mixed G/flex 650 is of a heavy "syrup" consistency. It will run off a vertical surface. 650 can be thickened with inert filling materials.
The 655-8 contains 4.5 oz. each of thickened G/flex 655 resin and hardener. Mixing ratio is 1:1.  Mixed G/flex 655 is of a "gel-toothpaste" consistency. It's still very spreadable, but stays put where it is applied.These are the same tubes of resin and hardener that come in the G/flex 655-K Kit.
The 655-1 G/flex is a syringe containing 0.42 oz of resin and 0.42 oz of hardener, perfect for small repair jobs.

The 655-K kit contains 4.5 oz. each of thickened G/flex 655 resin and hardener. Mixing ratio is 1:1. It also includes two reusable mixing sticks/applicators, one pair disposable gloves, four alcohol cleaning pads, 10 mixing palettes and complete handling and repair instructions.
The 101 kit contains two WEST SYSTEM 105 Resin/205 Fast Hardener packets, and enough adhesive filler to complete a variety of coating and bonding operations.

The 101-T contains six pre-measured packets of 105 Resin/205 Hardener (0.56 fl oz of mixed epoxy) 
The 610 contains 190 ml of thickened epoxy adhesive in a self-metering coaxial cartridge that dispenses a gap-filling structural epoxy that bonds tenaciously to wood, metals, fiberglass and concrete. Each tube comes with a static mixing wand. Six10 stays workable in the static mixer for 42 minutes, making it practical for long or complicated assemblies.
