Steel Cladding Adhesives & Silicones

For stainless steel cladding, high-strength MS polymer adhesives and two-part polyurethane adhesives are recommended. These provide excellent bonding strength and flexibility, allowing the adhesive to accommodate slight movement without compromising the bond. MS polymer adhesives are suitable for most installations, while two-part polyurethane adhesives offer maximum strength for heavy-duty applications or larger sheet installations.

Yes, MS polymer adhesive is highly effective for bonding metal surfaces, including stainless steel. It provides strong initial grab and long-term flexibility, making it ideal for wall cladding installations. It also bonds well to a variety of substrates such as concrete, plasterboard, and tiles, making it a versatile option for steel cladding projects.

Yes, silicone sealant is often used to finish steel cladding installations by sealing joints, edges, and trims. This helps prevent moisture ingress and creates a clean, professional finish. Colour-matched silicones such as our steel colour are particularly useful for maintaining a consistent appearance, especially when working with visible joints or decorative applications.

As a general guideline, one 6.5kg two-part polyurethane adhesive will cover approximately one 2.44m x 1.22m sheet. Alternatively, around three 300ml cartridges of MS polymer adhesive are typically used per sheet. The exact amount may vary depending on the substrate, application method, and surface condition, so allowing extra material is recommended.

Yes, the adhesives and silicones in this range are designed for use in commercial and industrial environments. They provide strong bonding performance, durability, and resistance to environmental factors such as temperature changes and moisture. This makes them suitable for use in commercial kitchens, service areas, workshops, and other high-demand installations.
