Description

Plexus MA530 is a tough, high-strength, two-part methacrylate adhesive formulated for structural bonding of composites, thermoplastics, coated metals, and primed raw metals.

Designed for medium working time applications, MA530 allows fabricators to position and assemble large structures while still maintaining the fast cure, high elongation, and superior fatigue resistance expected from Plexus structural adhesives.

This thixotropic, gap-filling adhesive dispenses easily through a standard 1:1 cartridge system and provides excellent bond performance in marine, transportation, construction, and industrial applications.


Key Features and Benefits

  • 30–40 minute working time, ideal for large parts and assemblies

  • High strength and high elongation for outstanding toughness

  • Excellent gap filling with a non-sag, thixotropic formula

  • Fast fixture time for improved throughput

  • Bonds composites, coated metals, thermoplastics, and primed raw metals

  • Strong resistance to fatigue, impact, and vibration

  • 1:1 mix ratio simplifies dispensing and equipment requirements


Common Applications

  • Composite hulls, decks, bulkheads, and marine structures

  • Truck, trailer, bus, and specialty vehicle assemblies

  • Architectural façades, exterior cladding, and signage

  • Industrial fabrication requiring strong, durable composite-to-metal bonds

  • Multi-material assemblies requiring flexibility and dynamic load resistance
