Power Adhesives Tecbond 232 Economical General-Purpose Glue Sticks

Tecbond 232 is an economical, clear, general-purpose EVA adhesive developed to deliver reliable adhesion across a broad range of production and assembly tasks. Available in 1/2" (12mm) and 5/8" (15mm) glue sticks, this formulation bonds effectively to fabrics, untreated wood, paper, cardboard, and many board substrates.

The high viscosity profile provides effective gap-filling performance on porous materials such as foams, supporting consistent bond formation during assembly. Finished bonds remain durable in cold environments, maintaining integrity at temperatures as low as -22°F, making this adhesive suitable for both product assembly and recreational workflows.

Why Choose Tecbond 232 Glue Sticks

  • Gap Filling: High viscosity allows for effective bonding on porous surfaces.
  • Cold Resistance: Finished bonds remain durable in low-temperature environments.
  • Versatile Adhesion: Bonds well to fabrics, wood, paper, and many plastics.
  • Clear Finish: General-purpose formulation sets clear for clean results.
  • FDA Compliance: Meets FDA 175.105 for indirect food contact.

Good adhesive!

We use this to put crystal bows on shoes. fabric is used both on the bow and shoe base to allow the adhesive a much stoner bond. It works very well in this application.

TEC Bond 232 General Purpose Glue Stick

This glue does not work well on glass. I use to glue wicks to glass candle containers. Many times the glue has loosened within five minutes of attaching the wick to the glass. Would not recommend this product.
