Description
Tecbond 1942 is a medium setting, very aggressive hotmelt adhesive, which exhibits excellent adhesion to wood, ceramics, light gauge metals, fibreglass and many plastics, such as nylon, polycarbonate, rigid PVC, polystyrene, ABS and acrylic.
All constituent parts of this adhesive have been approved by the American F.D.A under C.F.R 21.175.105 (adhesives).
Due to the natural materials in this product it is sometimes useful to reduce the glue guns temperature to 180˚C to prevent excessive dripping. Further information on Tecbond 1942 – Click Here

Important: Hot Melt Adhesives do have limitations! Being a thermoplastic product hot melt adhesives soften with heat and return to a solid state by the loss of heat. With this in mind, standard hot melt adhesives are not recommend for applications subjected to heat or direct sunlight. However we do offer grades with high heat resistance. Water and hot melt adhesives are a bad combination – standard hot melt adhesives are not waterproof and should be avoided for external applications. On saying this, we do have PUR adhesives that can be use externally and can even be dry cleaned. We strongly recommend that you thoroughly test the product and satisfy yourselves that the product is suitable for your application. This product suggested uses are a generalised suggestion and other factors may play a role in achieving the required bond, e.g. heat resistance, chemical resistance, gap filling, surface area to glue, open time or a degree of glue flexibility may be required etc.

Excellet product, used as an allrounder in our workshop

I have used this glue (Tecbond 1942)for a number of small metal-to-plastic and plastic to plastic/plastic to nylon bonds. It is certainly the best adhesive I have found so far for these tricky jobs

Ive used Tecbond on several applications and its still the best you can buy. I WILL be ordering again

New user to this product, excellent for quick mock-ups and prototyping – we have bonded ABS (incredible!!), timber (string on cleaned surfaces) and roughed aluminium (not so good on polished/smooth). A medium set time helps with assembly and have used for a water seal – excellent all round.
