When it comes to bonding leather and rubber goods, you’ll want an adhesive formula that can create a strong and durable bond between these two materials.

Here are some suitable options  which are Glue for Leather and Rubber Goods formulation

  1. Contact Cement: Contact cement is a versatile adhesive that can effectively bond leather and rubber. It forms a strong and flexible bond when applied to both surfaces, allowed to dry, and then pressed together. Be sure to choose a high-quality contact cement suitable for both leather and rubber.
  2. Shoe Repair Adhesive: Some brands offer specialized shoe repair adhesives designed for bonding various shoe materials, including leather and rubber. These adhesives are formulated for durability and flexibility, making them a great choice for repairing footwear.
  3. Epoxy Adhesive: Epoxy adhesives can bond leather and rubber effectively. They provide a strong, permanent bond, but they may not be as flexible as other adhesives. Epoxy can be a good choice for non-flexible parts of leather and rubber goods.
  4. Cyanoacrylate (Super Glue): Cyanoacrylate adhesives, often known as super glue, can work for small and quick repairs on leather and rubber goods. However, they may not be suitable for applications that require flexibility, as they can become brittle over time.
  5. Neoprene Adhesive: Neoprene-based adhesives are flexible and weather-resistant, making them suitable for bonding leather and rubber, especially for outdoor gear and footwear.
  6. Rubber Cement: Rubber cement is a good choice for temporary bonds between leather and rubber. It’s easy to apply and can be removed if needed. However, it may not provide a long-lasting bond for heavy-duty use.

Always follow the formulator’s instructions for the specific adhesive you choose. Proper surface preparation is crucial, including cleaning and roughening the surfaces for better adhesion. Additionally, consider the flexibility and durability requirements of your project when making an adhesive.
