Duco Cement Multi-Purpose Household Glue - 1 fl oz

Duco Cement by Devcon is a versatile household adhesive, known for its water resistance, fast-drying properties, and clear, durable finish. This nitro-cellulose-based cement is suitable for bonding a variety of materials, including wood, china, leather, glass, paper, ceramic, and metal.

It is important to note that Duco Cement is highly flammable both in its cured and uncured states. When using this adhesive on non-porous surfaces, it is recommended to apply a single coat to each surface, then hold or clamp the pieces together until the cement sets and dries. On porous surfaces, the process involves coating each piece, allowing it to dry, applying a second coat, and again holding or clamping the pieces together until the cement sets.

To prevent accidental spills or unwanted adhesion, it is advisable to use removable tape on surfaces where cement should not come into contact. However, the tape should be removed before the cement sets to ensure a proper bond. It is worth noting that Duco Cement is not suitable for use on polyethylene or polypropylene plastics.

The tensile strength of Duco Cement is as follows: 200 psi for glass-to-glass bonds, 1200 psi for wood-to-wood bonds, and 700 psi for metal-to-metal bonds. It is essential to handle this adhesive with care, as it is flammable and should be kept away from heat, sparks, and open flames. Duco Cement should not be used on items that will come into contact with food.

In conclusion, Devcon's Duco Cement is a reliable adhesive for various household projects, offering strong and long-lasting bonds between different materials. Its fast-drying and water-resistant properties make it a top choice for DIY enthusiasts and professionals alike.
