The technical data sheet for T-88 is at http://www.krnet.org/misc/t-88_tds.pdf . You may notice that the lap joint shear strength is 1800 psi for maple, but that's material failure, not glue line. That may also be the case for the 1700 psi number that I got from the Gorilla Glue folks. Still, apples and oranges. The reason I post this link is because its full of good information on the use of T-88...stuff I never knew. It even has aluminum joint strengths at various temperatures.
