Gorilla Heavy Duty Construction Adhesive is a job-site staple for fast, reliable bonds on nearly any project—inside or out. This 100% adhesive formula has no added water or solvents, so it won’t shrink, crack, or get brittle over time. In a compact 2.5 oz squeeze tube, it’s ideal for trim installs, punch-list fixes, and small assemblies where a cartridge would be overkill. The adhesive grabs quickly—holds in 30 seconds—and its waterproof, all-weather chemistry stands up to rain, heat, and cold once cured. Use it to set subfloor blocking, mirror surrounds* (with mechanical fasteners), drywall patches, stone and brick accents, PVC sheet, foamboard, marble, and more. It fills gaps up to 1″, can be painted with latex paint within 2 days, and meets common construction standards (ASTM C557, ASTM D3498, AFG-01). Low odor and VOC-compliant (<2% VOC) make it a practical choice for occupied spaces and indoor work.

Contractors and DIYers choose this tube when they need a tough heavy-duty construction adhesive that works on mixed materials and doesn’t slow the schedule. The quick grab helps on vertical installs like trim returns and mirror surrounds (with mechanical fasteners as required), while the gap-filling body takes up irregularities in stone, brick, or rough framing. Low odor and VOC compliance make it suitable for interior punch-list work, and the waterproof cure handles outdoor repairs and landscaping blocks. With paintable, sandable performance and broad temperature tolerance, the 2.5 oz tube travels easily in a pouch and solves a lot of small jobs without opening a full cartridge.

Why Customers Choose the Gorilla Glue 2.5oz All Surface All Purpose Construction Adhesive
Installers pick this all-purpose construction adhesive because it’s truly all surface: it bonds wood to concrete, tile to backer, mirrors to walls (with fasteners), and PVC to plywood—then cures waterproof for outdoor use. The fast-grab, 30-second hold speeds trim and small panel work, while gap filling to 1 inch handles rough brick or stone. Low odor, VOC-compliant chemistry suits interior punch-list tasks, and the 2.5 oz tube is perfect for small jobs and touch-ups without hauling a cartridge gun. From subfloor patches to drywall accessories and marble accents, users get a clean bead, quick set, and a durable bond they can paint and sand the next day—exactly what’s needed to keep projects moving.
