Tip Assembly, For Use With: TC Hot Melt Applicators

3M™ hot melt applicators systems are designed to help improve productivity, lower costs and minimize waste in industrial applications. From high volume to detail work, our 3M™ hot melt applicators help to ensure optimum performance through melt on demand or progressive feed technology to meet your aggressive production deadlines. 3M™ hot melt applicators, also referred to as "glue guns," are tools used to apply liquefied thermoplastic adhesives and are available in low and high temperature versions. Low-temperature adhesive applicators operate at approximately 250 °F/121 °C and are beneficial when bonding heat sensitive materials such as electronics, plastics and cloth. High temperature applicators operate at a minimal temperature of approximately 380 °F/193 °C and can dispense adhesives that produce a stronger bond than low temperature adhesives. Melted 3M™ hot melt adhesive is extruded through the nozzle 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. In our 3M™ industrial adhesives and tapes division, we apply the science of adhesion to deliver innovative solutions that improve the design and manufacturing processes of companies around the world. In the end, our technologies help customers like you deliver competitive products to the market faster and more efficiently.
