Power OverTEC FR5 over moulding hot melt guide

New from Power Adhesives - Over Molding Hot Melt Sticks

Hotmelt.com is thrilled to introduce Overtec 5 FR glue sticks. We first saw these incredible glue sticks in action at MDM Chicago 2013 brought to the show by our friend Lee from Power Adhesives. 

OverTEC is a cost effective molding system that eliminates traditional heat curing, housing and casing that are used in potting. Since the OverTEC system works perfect with aluminum molds allowing you to save money. Aluminum molds can be made quickly because they are easy to mill and drill. We are thrilled to be able to present this cost effective molding option to our customers.

Easy as 1-2-3
