SEK Surebond SB-25 Insta-Grip Vertical Hardscape Adhesive, 20 oz Sausage Tube
Why Vertical Needs Its Own Adhesive
A structural adhesive like SB-10 is built for compression: caps sitting down on a wall. Vertical veneer is a shear problem, and if the adhesive lets the piece creep even a quarter inch before it cures, the whole course reads crooked. Insta-Grip trades some open time for tack that holds immediately.
- Strong initial tack with non sag hold. Place it and it stays there.
- Repositionable for the first few minutes. Grip does not mean instantly permanent.
- Solvent free and non yellowing. It will not bleed or discolour light stone.
- Excellent UV resistance. Built for exterior exposure.
- Flexible at low temperature. With minimal shrinkage as it cures.
Timing
| Initial grip | About 10 seconds |
| Working time | 3 to 5 minutes |

Coverage And Limits
The thickness limit is the specification people miss, and it is the one that causes failures.
| Coverage | 30 to 40 linear feet per 20 oz tube at a 3/8 in bead |
| Maximum material thickness | 2 in for vertical installation |
| Heavy materials | 20 lb and over may still need fixturing while it cures |
| Use location | Interior and exterior |
