TCC offers specific adhesives and patch pastes for most of their Tooling Planks®. These have been designed with the physical properties of the plank in mind and in most cases the material will match or exceed the strength and physical properties of the respective plank.
The chart below will help you determine which Adhesive or Patch Paste you will need. Please keep in mind that job specifications dictate which type of material should be used. All applications must be considered before making a choice (ex. high temp vs. room temp adhesive).

*We highly recommend the use of our Adhesives and Patch Paste when using the TCC Tooling Planks®. These systems have been tested and are known to give the best performance possible.
A two-component toughened epoxy adhesive system that was developed to be used to bond our tooling planks together. The physical properties closely resemble our CNC tooling Planks.
A health-safe, two component, unfilled non-staining high temp epoxy adhesive and laminating system specifically developed for room temp hardening. The system also possesses high temp properties for high temp tooling applications.
A two-part system designed as a patch paste for PP-1052 Pattern Plank®. When mixed this material forms a paste-like compound which maintains dimensional stability with excellent handling and machining characteristics.
A two-part system designed to quickly make repairs or modifications to the PP-1052 Pattern Plank®. This material is available in convenient 50ml self-mixing cartridges for ease of use.
A two component filler system which yields a smooth, creamy, thixotropic and workable paste with superior handling, set-fast characteristics and dimensional stability.
A smooth workable paste with set-fast cure to expedite those applications for repair or finish. P-17 can be applied with a squeegee, spatula or flat tool.
A creamy, non-sag paste which mixes easily and saves time and labor over other fillers which require longer cure. P-34 bonds to all types of wood and epoxy and can be finished to a feather edge by sanding, carving, machining or scraping.
