New from Power Adhesives - Over Molding Hot Melt Sticks
We are 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 5 FR is a cost-effective molding system that eliminates traditional heat curing, housing, and casing that are used in potting. Since the Overtec system works perfectly 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. If you have any questions about Power Adhesives Overtec products, please contact us here.

Easy as 1-2-3
- Switch on your glue gun and allow it to heat up to the operating temperature
- Dispense Overtec 5 FR by placing the nozzle into the hole in the side of the aluminum mold. When the mold is full pulling the trigger will become hard, but maintain pressure for a few seconds.
- The Overtec 5 FR will set within a few seconds and then the mold can be opened and the molded piece taken out
