Which glue is the right choice?
1816B: HIGH-STRENGTH PERMANENT BOND
1816B is a high-strength adhesive designed for permanent bonding across a wide range of materials, including various types of leather and reinforcements. With a short workable time of approximately 30 minutes before setting, 1816B requires quicker positioning and placement, but delivers the most durable hold. It is ideal for stitch-free applications, will dry 100% clear and will not yellow over time.
5020: MED-HIGH STRENGTH WITH EXTENDED WORK TIME
5020 delivers a strong, reliable bond comparable to cement and solvent-based adhesives, but with an extended work time for adjustments. It remains workable for up to four hours before setting, ensuring precise positioning. While 5020 forms a permanent bond, it is best suited for applications that will be stitched for added durability. For example, a stitched outsole of a shoe.
