Titebond Solvent-Based Drywall Construction Adhesive is specifically designed for installing drywall and paneling to most common building materials including wood and metal studs. It offers excellent adhesion, reduces nail pops and provides a “no sag” installation.

Features & Benefits


  • Recommended For: Installation of drywall and paneling to most common building materials.
  • Compatible Materials: Common building materials including wood, metal, gypsum wallboard, plywood, hardboard, tile board, plaster, wallpaper (non-vinyl) and most other porous materials.
  • Extrudes Easily from 0°F - 100°F
  • Solvent-based
  • Strong initial tack allows panels to be positioned quickly without slipping
  • Will not become hard or brittle
  • Exposure to moisture or intermittent cold water has little effect on bond
  • Fills irregularities between materials to provide a more solid backup surface
  • Strong fast grab
  • All weather
  • Reduces nail pops

Specifications & Certifications

  • Exceeds ASTM C557. Tested in accordance with ASTM E72 for racking and shearing.

Application Guidelines


  • Application Temperature: 0°F to 100°F
  • Service Temperature Range: 0°F to 120°F
  • Working Time: Approximately 20 minutes for a 1/4" bead
  • Prep: Surfaces must be clean and free of any material that may prevent adequate adhesion.
  • Application: Cut tip on slant for 1/4” to 3/8” bead. Puncture inner seal and place in cartridge gun. Apply continuous bead of adhesive to studs or furring strips. Where two panels join, apply a zigzag bead so adhesive will contact both panels. Adhere materials within 20 minutes. Press surfaces firmly together for full contact with adhesive. Note: For drywall, use fasteners in accordance with local building standards. For paneling or other large applications, use finishing nails at top and bottom and brace overnight as needed. When applying adhesive overhead for ceiling applications, use 3/8” bead or less.
  • Cleanup: Tools and adhesive may be cleaned with acetone or mineral spirits. Follow solvent vendor’s precautions.
