I did a bit of quick research on adhesives. My quick look and the terminology may lead to inaccuracies. I am not a materials engineer. For instance, shear strength numbers were either listed as shear strength or lap shear strength, then there is dynamic vs static whatever. Please take the info with a LARGE grain of salt.
I listed the references so you can look them up yourself. This may interest some.
