Functionality: thermoplastic resins of this solid adhesive stick melt down to stick to the surface. Heat-activated adhesive allows an extended open time for application and positioning, making sure the adhesive-coated substrate is properly fixed Quick Adhesion: thermoplastic adhesive quickly fills the gaps between bonding surfaces as it liquifies on heating. This allows you to move assemblies immediately, eliminating the need of clamps, fixturing, or additional drying time Applications: the hot-melt adhesive bonds to a variety of substrates like foundry sand cores, wood bonding, selected plastics, chipboard, etc. The bonding adhesive is used for woodworking, furniture, transportation, and other construction applications Strong Bonding: melting glue offers a strong, reliable bond for enhanced durability and exceptional performance. The glue stick is the perfect replacement of mechanical fasteners and sealing tapes as it gets virtually invisible between the surfaces 3M Preferred Converter: TapeCase is a 3M Preferred Converter; 3M has partnered with TapeCase to make their products available in a larger assortment of sizes, so that customers can use the tape in a variety of applications.
