3M Scotch-Weld Hot Melt Adhesive 3792 LM Q Clear, 5/8 in x 8 in, 11 lb
3MTM Scotch-WeldTM Hot Melt Adhesive 3792LM Q is a clear, hot melt adhesive that effectively bonds wood, coated paper, polyolefins and other heat-sensitive materials. This low melt, multi-purpose adhesive features a 50 second open bond, to allow for positioning and fit adjustment on wood, polyethylene, polypropylene, corrugated boxes, and lightweight substrates on furniture, upholstery and novelties. The 8" stick will produce up to 20 linear feet of 1/8" bead and the special ribbed contour prevents slippage, for reliable, consistent feed-through when used on applicators with the Quadrack convertor. Its nearly instant bonding property reduces production time for P.O.P. assembly, joining, attaching, securing, repairing, potting, panel bonding, wire tacking, bundling, sealing, encapsulating, rigidizing, foam bonding, and packaging.Hot Melt Adhesive 3792LM Q Clear is composed of 100% solids, thermoplastic resin, produced in 8" sticks for use M™ Scotch-Weld™ Hot Melt Applicator LT Q and EC. It is a low-volatile-organic compound (VOC) and produces minimal odor when heated, helping to support a comfortable work environment. This thermoplastic adhesive has excellent thermal shock, heat resistance, electrical insulating properties, and is non-corrosive. Its high reliability makes it suitable for rigidization of printed wiring board components and other electronic applications.Product InformationViscosity (cps)10,500@250°F/121°CMelt Point178°F/81°COpen Time40 secHeat Resistance140°F/60°CPeel Strength13 PIW (lbs Per Inch of Width, on canvas)Shear Strength350 PSI (Douglas Fir)About Hot Melt AdhesivesHot melt adhesives encompass a range of characteristics. Low melt adhesives/ hot-glue sticks have a relatively low melting point that ranges between approximately 170 – 2500F/76 – 1210C, depending on the formulation, and are applied with low-temperature applicators, commonly referred to as hot-glue guns. Low-melt adhesives are beneficial in that they can be used to bond heat sensitive materials such as foam and a range of plastics. They provide a nearly instant bond but when the bond is reheated, some varieties will soften, allowing the bonded surfaces to be separated. The aggressive hot tack nature of low-melt adhesives speeds up production and assembly operations that involve light gage metals, some plastics, and other non-fibrous materials in addition to building display boards, floral displays, and hobby projects. These adhesives are also used in manufacturing, assembly and packaging processes, window, door, construction, transportation,  electronics, and  other industries,  as well as in woodworking, assembling building store displays,  convention sample boards, trophies, novelties, upholstery, furniture, audio components, and cabinets.Hot melt adhesives/hot-glue sticks have a relatively hot melting point that ranges between approximately 250-3800F/121-1960C, depending on the formulation, and are applied with hot-melt applicators, commonly referred to as hot-glue guns. Hot-melt glues provide a nearly instant bond between many plastics, paper and wood, but when the bond is reheated, some varieties will soften, allowing the bonded surfaces to be separated. The quick-stick nature of hot-melt adhesives speeds up operations in packaging and production.About 3M Industrial Adhesives and TapesFor more than a century, 3M has applied innovation and technology to improving our customers’ lives and supporting their business goals.
