Glue Machinery Corporation offers a wide range of Hot Melt Adhesives for all your gluing needs.

Hot melt glue is used in almost all applications requiring a strong and quick setting time. Industrial, commercial, home, craft, and hobby applications have all benefited from the use of Hot Melt. Hot melt glue comes in many sizes, and can take form as sticks, chips, beads, and pillows. This hot melt glue can be applied using hot melt glue guns like the CHAMP^tm series handguns, and skillets such as our Hot Melt Tank.

Hot melt glue differs from most other types of glues in that the hot melt glue sticks are heated in a glue gun before application, and then are cooled to form a solid bond. These types of glue, also known as thermoplastic polymers, that become liquid when heated and re-solidify when cooled are used as a basis for hot melt glue because of their unique strength.

Glue Machinery Corporation offers an extensive variety of HotMelt Glue and can offer individual consultation and testing to help you best evaluate your specific needs.

Typical hot melt glues available are:

-EVA (Standard Hot Melt)

-Polyamides (High Temperature Hot Melts)

-and some APAO (Polyolefins)

Most of these products have limited “Open Times” or working time and require fast lamination of the two substrates. Some adhesives provide for a re-positionable bond and even ‘peel and stick’ removable bond.

There are many benefits to using Hot Melt Glue

–Low cost

–Easy storage

–Easy to use

–Diversity- Hot melt glue can be used for many different jobs

–Superior seal quality (Hot melt glue penetrates and secures all flaps)

–Tamper evident packaging - Hot melt glue seals cannot be opened and resealed

Hot melt glue sets quickly and makes less mess than most other glues and the hot melt glue guns are easy to use in many ways. Hot melt glue is highly compatible with many different applications and can be used on a wide range of materials. Our general Hot Melt is an outstanding hobby and packaging glue. This type of hot melt glue stick is great for all applications, such as, floral display work, and gluing fabric on pillows.

Hot Melt Glue Stick Guns :Hot melt stick glue guns are essential to industry for assembly and packaging. These hot melt glue application tools allow manufacturers to manually apply hot melt adhesives from lightweight, low cost applicators using easily handled sticks of glue. Glue Machinery will be offering the Champ Stick 400 as their introductory stick glue applicator. You will find that this model is consistent with Glue Machinery Corporation’s model of offering the best high quality industrial components.Glue guns can quickly and efficiently melt adhesive in the tip where a high temperature heated cone is located. High temperature and the downward pressure of the glue stick against this heated cone create the flow required from the nozzle.
