3M Hot Melt Adhesive 3762 is a 100% solids, fast-setting hot melt adhesive designed for packaging and shipping applications. It is ideal for bonding corrugated fiberboard cartons, wood, particle board, chipboard and foam. The recommended application temperature range is 350-385F (177-196C)

  • Aggressive hot tack rapidly achieves handling strength
  • Short open time allows for fast assembly lines
  • Securely bonds difficult to seal substrates such as lightly waxed surfaces
  • Low viscosity prevents stringing even at fast production speeds
  • Recommended application temperature range: 350-385°F (177-196°C)

Aggressive Hot Tack Rapidly Achieves Handling Strength

3M™ Hot Melt Adhesive 3762 is a 100% solids, thermoplastic resin that is specially formulated to quickly grab and seal in high-volume production settings such as packing, woodworking, and assembly. This adhesive provides adhesion to wood, paperboard, corrugated, and other fibrous substrates, increasing the speed of carton closures. It also provides strong shear strength, ensuring that your packages stay sealed and components stay bonded under most conditions. With a 25-second open time and a 1/8" bead, it is sufficient for positioning and adjusting for fit, supporting high-tempo productivity for packaging, woodworking, and applications that involve fibrous materials. The low viscosity prevents stringing even at fast production speeds.

Recommended Applications
  • General packaging
  • Securing wood supports and reinforcements
  • Repacking chipboard
  • Point-of-purchase displays
  • Trade exhibits
  • Bonding waxed surfaces
Understanding Hot Melt Adhesives

Hot melt adhesives, also known as glue sticks, are liquefied thermoplastic adhesives available in both low and high-temperature versions. Low temperature hot melt adhesives are applied at 250ºF/121ºC temperatures, which makes them ideal for bonding electronics, plastics, cloth, and other heat-sensitive materials. High temperature hot melt adhesives are applied at 380ºF/193ºC and produce a stronger bond than the low temperature hot melts.

Melted adhesive is extruded through a nozzle using a 3M™ Hot Melt Applicator by either pneumatic pressure, a mechanical trigger mechanism, or with pressure applied directly on the stick. Different nozzles can be used to apply thin, wide strips or narrow, thicker beads. Hot melt adhesive generally sets quickly, ranging from a few seconds to a few minutes, depending on the adhesive formulation.
