Defense Adhesives

Permabond manufactures adhesives for the defense industry that cover a wide range of applications. From bonding lightweight composites to sealing oxygen pipelines in fighter jets, choosing the right adhesive is essential. As a result, each task requires adhesives with specific properties – such as impact resistance, heat stability, or bonding tough substrates in demanding defense environments. To meet these demands, we offer MIL Spec (Military Specified) adhesives developed for your exact needs, including solutions for aerospace, naval, munitions, and vehicle maintenance. View our Military Specifications and Standards to explore our range of defense grade adhesives.

Typical applications of Defense adhesives:

• Bonding Kevlar® materials for body armour and helmets
• Composite bonding for impact resistant panels on lightweight vehicles
• Bonding composite rocket launcher tubes
• Fast bonding of wiring looms to aircraft fuselage
• Bonding rubber flooring/grip treads inside tanks and other vehicles
• Drones – bonding lightweight composites and also nylon 12
• Sealing oxygen supply pipework for fighter jets

The variety of defense applications and materials means that a broad selection of adhesives is needed to meet performance demands.

Composite Bonding- Designed for structural strength without added weight for use on Rocket Launchers, Vehicle & Drones.

Bonding Kevlar® materials – Adhesives that offer high strength bonds to support the assembly of lightweight protection gear.

Sealing Oxygen Pipes in Fighter Jets – Sealants that resist vibration, high temperatures, and tough flying conditions.
