Hot Melt Adhesives in Review
Hot melts are 100% solids thermoplastic resins. These adhesives are engineered to re-melt after bonding if exposed to high enough temperatures. The advantages of hot melt adhesives is that, unlike mechanical fasteners and sealing tapes, they are virtually invisible between surfaces.
Our hot melt adhesives liquefy when heated, quickly fill gaps and wet the bonding surface. When they are applied to a surface, they cool, harden and reach their bond strength within seconds. Due to their quick work-life, you can move assemblies immediately upon application which eliminates the need for clamps, fixturing or additional drying time and energy.
Leverage Long-Lasting Results
With moderate heat resistance and flexibility, 3M Hot Melt Adhesive 3747 produces the adhesion you need for many applications. Benefit from the many features of this hot melt glue, an adhesive designed to offer you exceptional performance and prepared to give you the confidence that comes with long-lasting results.
