|"No Radiant is capable of more than you. Yours is the power of Connection, of joining men and worlds, minds and souls. Your Surges are the greatest of all, though they will be impotent if you seek to wield them for mere battle. "
|The [[Stormfather]] to [[Dalinar]].{{book ref|sa3|64}}

The Bondsmiths have access to '''Tension''', the Surge of Soft Axial Interconnection, and '''Adhesion''', the Surge of Pressure and Vacuum.
The Bondsmiths use the Surges of '''Tension''' and '''Adhesion'''. Using a combination of Tension and Adhesion, Bondsmiths are able to feel and hear the cognitive aspect of objects and can unite broken objects back together. The longer the object is broken and sees itself as separate objects, the harder it is to unite them back together. This bond will last even when Stormlight runs out.{{book ref|sa3|59}}
 
=== Adhesion ===
 
=== Tension ===
The Tension Surge can be manipulated by the Surgebinder to alter the stiffness of an object.{{book ref|sa2|part=ars}} Bondsmiths use it to repair inanimate objects, as a complement to the [[Adhesion]] surge.{{cite}}
 
=== Other abilities ===
; Connection and lightweaving:
Bondsmiths are able to boost other Radiants' powers. The boost given is different for each Order.{{wob ref|11296}} For example, allowing a [[Order of Lightweavers|Lightweaver]] to create a three-dimensional projection of [[Roshar]].{{book ref|sa3|8}}
 
; "Healing" inanimate objects:
Bondsmiths may be able to feel and hear the cognitive aspects of certain broken objects around them. With some combination of physical effort, Tension and Adhesion, they can fix them. It has been suggested that this ability may have similarities to Progression-based healing - it is easier for users of Progression to heal those who are recently wounded, and it gets harder as the "soul" becomes accustomed to the wound. {{book ref|sa3|59}}
