PU Adhesive for Fire Doors

Single-component, moisture-cure polyurethane adhesive (SPC-HF101) for laminating fire-door skins to fire-resistant cores — bonding steel, stainless and wood facings to perlite, rock wool, magnesium and calcium-silicate boards with a strong, fire-rated, formaldehyde-free bond.

Why fire-door plants choose SPC

A fire-rated adhesive built for the door line

SPC SPC-HF101 is a single-component, moisture-cure polyurethane that bonds fire-door skins to fire-resistant cores with ≥15 MPa metal-to-metal strength — on board cores the substrate fails before the bond. It provides an open time of 40–50 minutes at 25 °C, cures in <4–5 h, resists high and low temperatures, and carries GB 8624 fire, low-flame-spread, toluene-free and formaldehyde-free certification. After curing the glue line is insoluble and non-melting.

Types of Fire-Door Adhesive — and Which to Choose

Fire doors are assembled with several adhesive chemistries. SPC’s single-component SPC-HF101 polyurethane is the choice for fire-rated, structural skin-to-core bonds.

How to apply

How to Apply SPC-HF101

A simple single-component workflow — no mixing, cured by ambient moisture.

1

Clean the surface

Remove oil and dust from the skin and core surfaces to be bonded.

2

Apply single-side

Spread evenly with a toothed scraper or roll coater. Confirm coating weight on the actual skin/core combination before production.

3

Composite & press

Lay up skin and core and press. To speed cure, spray a little water mist on the glue line first.

4

Cure

Maintain pressure during cure. Full cure is <4–5 h (adjustable); a light water mist can accelerate cure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Fire-door adhesive (SPC-HF101) — technical answers for door manufacturers.

What adhesive is used to make fire doors?

A single-component moisture-cure polyurethane — SPC SPC-HF101. It laminates steel, stainless and wood door skins to fire-resistant cores (perlite, rock wool, magnesium, calcium-silicate, vermiculite), with ≥15 MPa metal-to-metal strength and a fire-rated, formaldehyde-free glue line.

Is the adhesive fire-rated?

Yes. SPC-HF101 is type-tested to GB 8624-2006, carries a low-flame-spread report, and reaches smoke toxicity grade ZA1 under GB/T 20285-2006 — suitable for fire doors.

What door skins and cores does it bond?

Skins: galvanized / color steel, stainless steel, aluminum alloy, copper, and steel-wood / wooden facings. Cores: expanded perlite, rock wool, magnesium and calcium-silicate board, vermiculite slab, paper honeycomb and gypsum board.

Is it formaldehyde-free and toluene-free?

Yes — national coating-quality reports certify no added formaldehyde and no added toluene, so it suits indoor-air and green-building requirements.

How strong is the bond?

Metal-to-metal tensile strength is ≥15 MPa. On non-metal cores such as perlite or gypsum board, the core itself fails before the glue line.

How much adhesive do I need (coverage)?

The controlled TDS does not set one universal coating weight. Confirm it by trial on the actual facing, core porosity and press cycle before production.

How long is the surface-dry and full cure time?

Open time is 40–50 minutes at 25 °C and full cure is <4–5 hours (adjustable). A light water mist can accelerate moisture cure.

How is it applied?

Clean off oil and dust, spread the glue single-side with a toothed scraper or roll coater, composite the skin and core and press. Tools clean up with ethyl acetate.

What is the shelf life and how should it be stored?

Store dry, cool and sealed. Shelf life is six months unopened; reseal part-used drums immediately to prevent moisture ingress.

Do you offer samples, TDS, certificates, MOQ and OEM?

Yes. We provide a full TDS, fire and indoor-air certificates, free samples, and OEM / private-label supply with manufacturer-friendly MOQs. Contact us for a quote matched to your door build.
