Weld-On shipping in Canada

Standard stocked package sizes can ship across Canada under applicable limited-quantity dangerous-goods requirements. Larger formats, larger aggregate quantities and shipments outside limited-quantity allowances require a quoted dangerous-goods freight solution. Pickup availability varies by branch.

Always review the current IPS manufacturer SDS and TDS before use. Product labels and current manufacturer documents control over general selection guidance.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between Weld-On 3, 4 and 16?

Weld-On 3 and 4 are water-thin acrylic cements for close-fitting joints. Weld-On 3 is the faster starting point; Weld-On 4 provides more working time and greater blush resistance. Weld-On 16 is medium-bodied and better suited to fabrication where limited gap filling is helpful.

Are Weld-On 3, 4 and 16 the current formulations?

Our product guidance is written for the current 2025 DCM- and TCE-free formulations. Confirm the package label and current manufacturer SDS and TDS before use.

Can Weld-On adhesives ship across Canada?

Standard package sizes can ship under applicable limited-quantity dangerous-goods requirements. Larger formats or quantities require a dangerous-goods freight quotation.

What if the Weld-On formula I need is not stocked?

Use the Ask Us quote form. Include the Weld-On number, package size, quantity, substrates and delivery postal code so our team can confirm sourcing and freight.

Can I substitute one Weld-On formula for another?

Do not substitute solely by product number or viscosity. Confirm substrate compatibility, joint design, working time, cure requirements and application method using current IPS technical data.
