Recommended Applications
  • Ideal for bonding polyolefin based plastics
  • For applications requiring quick bond times
Understanding Hot Melt Adhesives

Hot melt adhesives are applied with 3M Adhesive Applicators and extrude as liquefied thermoplastic to fill gaps and wet entire bonding surfaces before setting. They often exceed 100 psi shear strength for quick, convenient strength. Hot melt adhesives are used for bonding a wide variety of materials ranging from wood to corrugated cardboard, heat-sensitive foam, plastics, and metals. Unlike mechanical fasteners or sealing tapes, hot melt adhesives are virtually invisible between mating surfaces. These 100% solids thermoplastic resins are available in a variety of strengths, temperatures, and pen time/bonding ranges to meet your specific application demands.
