Trusted by leading turbine manufacturers and maintenance teams worldwide for bonding strength, industry-leading fatigue and impact resistance, minimal surface preparation, lightweight durability, and flexibility for a wide range of structural and assembly applications.
Wind
SCIGRIP has a long history of working in the wind energy market including onshore and offshore wind turbine manufacturing, field repair and retrofit applications.
In modern wind turbine manufacturing, performance starts at the bond line. Mechanical fixings add weight and complexity, and welding is often unsuitable for the composite structures and mixed material assemblies that modern turbine design demands. SCIGRIP structural adhesives provide a seamless, reliable and aerodynamically clean alternative.
They utilise dissimilar material bonding, multiple working times, minimal surface preparation, impact resistant gap filling and provide reduced bondline readthrough, environmental resistance and a clean and finished look.

SCIGRIP products solve challenges
Structural Integrity
High strength bonds for composites, rotor blades, nacelles and rotor hubs capable of withstanding constant vibration, impact and extreme weather conditions.
Production Efficiency
Quicker fixture time for large assemblies such as rotor blades and nacelle structures, with no sag characteristics and minimal surface preparation.
Excellent Environmental and Chemical Resistance
Bond strength maintained after extended exposure to extreme weather, UV, temperature extremes and the harsh demands of onshore and offshore wind installations.
Field Repair and Retrofit
SG350L offers unique gap filling capability up to 150mm without boiling, requiring no surface preparation and enabling fast injection and rapid curing — ideal for trailing edge splits, lightning strike damage, shipping damage and drill-and-fill repair of internal composite defects.
Typical applications include…
Rotor blade bonding
Composite structures requiring fast, no sag, strong bonding subject to constant vibration and variable weather conditions
Nacelle bonding
Composite housing structures requiring strong dissimilar material bonding with impact and vibration resistance
Rotor hub bonding
Composite and cast iron assemblies requiring strong sealing and bonding under continuous motion and variable weather
Tower bonding
Steel and composite structures requiring strong, no sag bonding and sealing in harsh environmental conditions
Yaw mechanism bonding
Dissimilar material bonding with weatherproof sealing and corrosion resistance
Vortex generator bonding and retrofit
Thermoplastic devices requiring fast, no sag bonding in harsh conditions subject to constant impact and vibration
Field repairs
Trailing edge splits, lightning strike damage and shipping damage repair using gap filling adhesive up to 150mm without boiling
Drill and fill repairs
Internal defect repair in composite materials with no surface preparation required
