Q: How can I ensure a strong bond when using the adhesive on Correx – corrugated plastic sheets?

A: The key to bonding Correx is getting the glue down hot. Bring the substrates together quickly and apply compression. If you don’t apply the glue hot you may achieve a cold bond which is likely to fail.

A: Tecbond hot melt adhesives are instant bond gluing solutions. Open time can vary depending on ambient conditions and the chill factor of the materials to be bonded. Key is to apply the molten adhesive, bring the substrates together quickly and apply compression. Once the adhesive has lost heat and solidified the bond has been created.
