Instant Grab Adhesive
XCEL IGA is an instant grab MS Polymer adhesive. It was developed for high strength initial bond. It fixes large panels and heavy objects without support or mechanical fixings, and has high tensile strength. It cures without shrinking, resists vibrations and remains flexible. It is available in 2 colours, grey and white.
