Frequently asked questions about the Assembly glues category
What are assembly glues and what are they used for?
Assembly glues are construction adhesives for fixing panels, mirrors, skirting boards, tiles and chemical anchors. They come in cartridges (typically 290–450 ml) or tubs up to 4 kg and are suitable for concrete, plasterboard, wood and ceramic tile substrates.
How do gypsum assembly glues differ from polyurethane assembly glues?
Gypsum glues are formulated for gypsum and plasterboard, offering good adhesion without attacking the substrate. Polyurethane glues provide higher bond strength, resist moisture and vibration, and are suitable for concrete, wood and exterior applications.
What cartridge/tub sizes are common for assembly glues in this category?
Common sizes are 290–350 ml cartridges (e.g. Penosil, Simson) and larger 4 kg tubs for industrial use (Soudal Fix All Floor & Wall). There are also wood glue sizes such as 1 L and 0.25 L (Rilak D3).
Which assembly glue should I choose for mirrors and decorative panels?
Choose a fast-setting mirror/panel adhesive such as Moment Fix Mirror & Panel or Penosil MembraneFix; they provide a strong, elastic bond designed to avoid staining or corrosion on mirror backs and surfaces.
Can I use assembly glue for laying tiles and which products are suitable?
Yes, some assembly adhesives are suitable for tile fixing. Look for high-tack and floor/wall formulas like Penosil Speedfix High Tack and Soudal Fix All Floor & Wall for interior and some exterior tile applications.
Which glue is suitable for fixing anchor sleeves and chemical anchors?
Use chemical anchor adhesives such as Penosil Speedfix Chemical Anchor 300 ml or Mapei Mapefix VE SF 300 ml; they deliver high adhesion and void-filling for anchor sleeve installations.
How should I prepare the surface before applying assembly glue?
Ensure the surface is dry and free of dust, grease and old sealant; prime porous substrates if needed. Remove loose particles from tile and concrete and use a cleaner (e.g. Mapei Kerapoxy Cleaner) when necessary.
Which glues are suitable for exterior work and wet rooms?
Use moisture-resistant polyurethane or exterior-rated universal adhesives such as Soudal Fix All Floor & Wall. These formulas withstand humidity and temperature changes for wet rooms and some outdoor applications.
Can I use assembly glue instead of PVA wood glue?
For carpentry use dedicated wood glues like Rilak D3 designed for wood joints and moisture resistance. Universal assembly adhesives can attach panels and trims but do not replace PVA for precise joinery.
What accessories and consumables are commonly needed when working with assembly glues?
Common extras include caulking guns for 290–310 ml cartridges, chemical anchor nozzles (Soudal 5 pcs), cleaners like Mapei Kerapoxy Cleaner and primers for porous substrates.
