3M™ Hot Melt Adhesive 3762 is a thermoplastic resin that is 100% solids and designed to quickly grab and seal in high-volume production settings such as packing, woodworking, and assembly. This adhesive is perfect for carton closures and provides adhesion to wood, paperboard, corrugated, and other fibrous substrates. It has strong shear strength, which ensures that packages stay sealed and components stay bonded under most conditions. The low viscosity prevents stringing even at fast production speeds. With a 25 second open time and a 1/8" bead, it is easy to position and adjust for fit, making it ideal for packaging, woodworking, and applications that involve fibrous materials.
Recommended Applications- General packaging
- Securing wood supports and reinforcements
- Repacking chipboard
- Point-of-purchase displays
- Trade exhibits
- Bonding waxed surfaces
Hot melt adhesives, also known as glue sticks, are liquefied thermoplastic adhesives that come in both low and high-temperature versions. Low temperature hot melt adhesives are applied at 250ºF/121ºC temperatures, which makes them ideal for bonding electronics, plastics, cloth, and other heat-sensitive materials. High temperature hot melt adhesives are applied at 380ºF/193ºC and produce a stronger bond than the low temperature hot melts. Melted adhesive is extruded through a nozzle using a 3M™ Hot Melt Applicator by either pneumatic pressure, a mechanical trigger mechanism, or with pressure applied directly on the stick. Different nozzles can be used to apply thin, wide strips or narrow, thicker beads. Hot melt adhesive generally sets quickly, ranging from a few seconds to a few minutes, depending on the adhesive formulation.
