Power Adhesives Tecbond 440 Sprayable Glue Slugs

Power Adhesives Tecbond 440 Glue Slug Overview

Tecbond 440 is a high-performance polyolefin-based hot melt spray adhesive designed for packaging and product assembly applications. It offers an exceptionally long open time of up to 6 minutes, allowing for flexibility in positioning materials before bonding. Its high tack ensures a near-instant hold while preventing creeping in compressed bonds. Compatible with Tec spray applicators and bulk dispensing systems, Tecbond 440 can be applied in spray, bead, or dot form—with bead or dot application further extending open time.
