The Ultimate Guide to AWF PRO Thickened Epoxy: Strong Bonds Without the Mess

When it comes to bonding, sealing, or filling gaps, not all adhesives are created equal. Standard glues or thin epoxies often drip, run, or fail to hold under stress—especially when you’re working overhead or on vertical surfaces. That’s where AWF PRO Thickened Epoxy stands out.

This professional-grade, two-part structural adhesive is designed to deliver uncompromising strength, reliability, and control. Whether you’re a contractor, boat builder, furniture maker, or a serious DIYer, AWF PRO Thickened Epoxy is a go-to solution for projects that demand precision and durability.

Why Choose a Thickened Epoxy?

Most standard epoxies are designed for flat or level surfaces. Apply them vertically, and you’ll quickly discover they drip or sag before curing. Thickened epoxy, however, contains advanced fillers that give it body—meaning it stays exactly where you put it. This makes it perfect for:

• Overhead applications like ceiling repairs or structural reinforcement.
• Vertical joints where a standard adhesive would run.
• Gap-filling jobs that require a stable material that won’t shrink or collapse.

With AWF PRO Thickened Epoxy, you get a product that performs like a high-strength adhesive and a structural filler all in one.

Features That Make the Difference

Here’s what sets AWF PRO Thickened Epoxy apart:

• High Strength – With a compressive strength of 9,800 psi, it’s built for serious structural applications.
• No Sagging, No Running – The thickened formula keeps the epoxy where it belongs, even overhead.
• Extended Working Time – 40 minutes of open time at 72°F gives you flexibility without feeling rushed.
• Waterproof & Durable – Once cured, it forms a watertight bond resistant to impact, stress, and wear.
• Versatile Bonding – Works on wood, fiberglass, metal, concrete, masonry, and composites.
• Superior Coverage – Packaged in a 450 mL dual-cartridge—over twice the material of a standard 10 oz cartridge.
• Post-Cure Workability – Once cured, it can be drilled, sanded, or painted for a clean finish.

How to Use AWF PRO Thickened Epoxy

Getting professional results is all about preparation and application.

Prep the Surface

• Clean thoroughly: remove grease, dust, and loose material.
• For best adhesion, roughen smooth surfaces.

Set Up the Cartridge

• Load the 450 mL dual-cartridge into a compatible epoxy gun (fits 450 mL or 600 mL models).
• Attach a static mixer nozzle and dispense until color is uniform.

Apply the Epoxy

• Apply directly to your bonding surface.
• For vertical or overhead work, apply in sections to keep control.
• Fill cracks, seams, or gaps evenly.

Clamp & Cure

• Clamp or brace within the first 24 hours.
• Initial set: 5–6 hours.
• Working strength: 2–5 days.
• Full cure: 5–7 days (depending on temperature and application volume).

Recommended Applications

• Marine & Boating – Bonding fiberglass, sealing decks, reinforcing bulkheads.
• Construction – Filling concrete cracks, laminating wood, sealing vertical joints.
• Woodworking – Bonding oily hardwoods like teak, building strong corner fillets.
• Metal & Composites – Structural bonding and reinforcement across a wide range of materials.

Pro Tips for Best Results

• Temperature Matters: Warmer temps accelerate cure, cooler temps slow it down.
• Mix Thoroughly: Always dispense until you see a consistent, uniform color.
• Plan Ahead: With a 40-minute working time, you have flexibility—but don’t wait too long.
