Devcon 14250 5-Minute Epoxy Rapid-Cure Adhesive – 25 mL for Fast General-Purpose Bonding
Devcon 14250 5-Minute Epoxy is a rapid-cure, two-component epoxy adhesive designed for fast general-purpose bonding and repair in MRO, industrial, and maintenance applications where a quick-setting, versatile epoxy is needed. With a working time of approximately 5 minutes and handling strength in minutes, it significantly accelerates bonding operations compared to standard slow-cure structural epoxies.
The Dev-Tube packaging contains the two-component epoxy in a side-by-side tube format with a mixing nozzle, delivering pre-metered adhesive through a static mixer for correct ratio and thorough mixing on every dispense. The small 25 mL size is ideal for spot repairs, component attachment, and small assembly operations where a larger cartridge would result in adhesive waste.
Devcon 5-Minute Epoxy bonds a broad range of materials including metals, most plastics, wood, ceramics, and glass, making it a versatile go-to adhesive for general maintenance and repair operations across multiple material types. Its general-purpose performance and fast cure make it a standard product in aerospace MRO toolkits and maintenance facilities.

Technical Information
Devcon 5-Minute Epoxy achieves rapid cure through a combination of low-viscosity reactive epoxy resin and a highly reactive amine hardener formulated to initiate rapid crosslinking at room temperature. The fast-reacting chemistry provides a tack-free surface and handling strength within minutes, enabling quick disassembly from fixturing and return to service in time-critical maintenance situations.
The rapid cure rate of 5-minute epoxies is achieved through higher reactivity chemistry than slow-cure systems, which typically involves some trade-off in final mechanical properties and temperature resistance compared to premium structural epoxies cured over longer periods. For non-structural repair, component attachment, and general bonding applications, the 5-minute working time and rapid cure provide an excellent balance of convenience and performance.
Both components must be dispensed from the same Dev-Tube and mixed thoroughly to ensure correct ratio and complete reaction. Inadequate mixing or ratio deviation can result in partially cured epoxy with reduced strength and tacky surface. The static mixer nozzle ensures proper mixing when the Dev-Tube is used as designed — discard the first small amount dispensed to ensure the mixer is fully primed with correctly proportioned material.
