Product - MR. JO Tecbond – GSE

Description

Mr. JO Tecbond – GSE is a strong, two component, solvent free adhesive for bonding material most commonly used. Materials such as stone, marble, granite, and wood panels. It has a thick liquid texture, making it easy to apply. Additionally, it has a long working time (250-300 minutes at 25°C), so you can take your time. Moreover, it dries to a transparent/translucent finish, giving it a clean look. As a result, it provides strong and durable bonds for construction, woodworking, and other multi purpose projects. Designed for heavy duty use, it ensures long-lasting results. In conclusion, it is easy to use and works great for all bonding needs.

• Color: Yellow
• Pot life @25°C: 250-300 mins
• Mixing Ratio: 100:80PBW
• Mixture consistency: Thick liquid
• Optics: Transparent/Translucent

• Fixing stones , marble and granite
• Wood panels
• General personal and bonding

• The mixture should be applied on a clean, rough and dry surface. This should be achieved by suitable mechanical and chemical means such as sandblasting Wire brushing or chemical etching. Suitable degreasing agent should be used to remove any grease, or oil traces on the surface.

• Use Part A & Part B in ratio 100:80 pbw. Mix the two components in small batches thoroughly for at least 2minutes. Apply the mix directly or using proper spatula to the pretreated surfaces.
• The joint components should be assembled as soon as the adhesive has been applied.
• Allow the material to cure for at least 24 hours before putting to use.

A1. Both are general-purpose epoxy adhesives used for bonding metals, plastics, wood, ceramics, and composites. They are ideal for:

• Component assembly
• Automotive and electrical bonding
• Handicrafts and fixtures
• General maintenance and repair tasks Their longer pot life makes them well-suited for larger or more complex applications.

A2.

• GS and PS are standard pot life adhesives (~30–40 mins).
• GSN and GSE are based on similar chemistry but offer extended working times (45–75 minutes) for better control during assembly or bonding of large surfaces.
• GSE typically offers the longest pot life among the range.

A3. Choose GSN or GSE when you:

• Need more open time for aligning, adjusting, or spreading adhesive
• Are working in warm climates where faster pot life adhesives set too quickly
• Are bonding larger or multiple parts simultaneously

A4. They are slightly higher in cost than PS but more cost-effective than some specialty slow-cure epoxies, offering an excellent balance of pot life, strength, and price.

• GSN: ~45–60 minutes at 25°C
• GSE: ~60–75 minutes at 25°C Actual pot life may vary based on temperature, mix volume, and application thickness.

A6. Mix 100 parts resin to 80 parts hardener by weight (100:80 PBW). Ensure the mix is thorough and uniform before applying.

A7. They are medium-viscosity and may sag slightly on vertical surfaces. For vertical or overhead use, consider a non-sag version like MR. JO Tecbond-NS, NSF, or X.

A8. These adhesives bond well with:

• Metal (steel, aluminum, copper)
• Wood and engineered boards
• Stone, marble, ceramics
• Plastic and composite materials

A9.

• Initial set: 4–6 hours
• Full cure: 24 hours at room temperature Can be accelerated by warm curing if needed.

A10. Both cure to a hard, opaque finish (often greyish or beige depending on batch). They are machinable, paintable, and suitable for sanding.

A11. Yes. Once cured, they form a moisture-resistant, chemically stable bond suitable for most indoor and semi-industrial environments.
