Power Adhesives Tecbond 1942 Wood & Plastic Hot Melt Glue Slugs
Tecbond 1942 is an EVA-based adhesive developed for packaging and woodworking operations that require consistent bonding on difficult substrates. These 1 3/4" (43mm) glue slugs are formulated to bond nylon, ABS, rigid PVC, and melamine to wooden surfaces while also performing well on smooth, shiny materials such as light-gauge metals and ceramics.
Designed to support efficient production workflows, the adhesive features a short open time to help increase installation speed and maintain steady throughput. Tecbond 1942 forms a strong bond within minutes of compression, supporting reliable handling strength. Because the formulation contains natural materials, reducing applicator temperature may help control flow and limit excessive dripping during application.
