I have used it [urethane] for years on wood because it was formulated to take the place of yellow wood glue. The two have similar strengths but urethane is waterproof. Yellow glue is a water evaporative process, the opposite of urethane adhesive. Keep in mind urethane needs moisture to start and complete the catalytic reaction [similar to supper glue]. Always clamp it and allow it overnight to cure.
It's not the equal of epoxy in strength. Ronald R. Eason Sr. President / CEO Ph: 816-468-4091 Fax: 816-468-5465 http://www.jrl-engineering.com Our Attitude Makes The Difference! Subject: KR> Gorilla Glue (urethane glue) I searched the archives and found some discussions about using this on foam to wood mating. I also saw that some guys were going to try it on wood to wood mating. I couldn't find any reported results of this. Anybody use this type of expanding glue on wood construction? I am considering it on some wingtip bows. The bows are made by laminating 6 pieces of 1/8" x 3/4" cap strip to form 3/4" thick bow with a 21" radius, for 180deg (half circle). My concern is that if I use T-88, the clamping pressure from making the radius in the jig will force all the glue out and starve the joint, making T-88 not reusable. Any suggestions>?
