H.B. Fuller EV Bond 383

1 of 264 products in this brand
H.B. Fuller EV Bond 383 is a thixotropic, toughened, two-component, ambient-curing epoxy adhesive. High impact resistance, moderate cure speeds, and good peel resistance characteristics make this system suitable for assembly or sealing of reinforced composite structures, metal bonding, or other applications where a toughened epoxy adhesive is required. This system contains dyes that fluoresce brightly with exposure to UV inspection lamps (black light).

Safety & Health

Safety Information

Although the system contains low volatility materials, care should be taken in handling. Use adequate ventilation in the work area. These materials may cause dermatitis in susceptible individuals. Keep off skin and out of eyes. In case of accidental skin contact, wash thoroughly with soap and water. In case of eye contact, flush eyes thoroughly with water and consult a physician immediately.

Storage & Handling

Storage and Shelf Life

These materials should be stored in a dry environment within a temperature range of 16 °C to 27 °C (60 °F to 80 °F). Extremes of temperature beyond this range may result in crystallization or polymerization of the materials. Introduction of a nitrogen blanket into the containers before closing will improve the storage life of the products.

Shelf Life
12 months (in separate sealed containers, part A uncured), 12 months (in separate sealed containers, part B uncured)
