Glue sticks are used with hot melt glue guns which heat up the glue stick until it becomes viscous and by squeezing the gun trigger, molten glue is applied to the surface. Glue sticks can also be known as hot-melt adhesive (HMA). The glue will cool and solidify in a matter of seconds and are usually fully cured within 1 minute. They can be used to bond a number of different materials including:
paper,
cardboard,
ceramics,
glass,
metal,
plastic,
rubber
wood.
Glue sticks are available in different colours:
White
Grey
Clear
Sticks are available in different 11mm or 12mm diameters depending on your application and the gun you are using.
