Description
Craftright Hot Melt Glue Sticks are a clear, 20 pack of mini glue gun refills aimed at craft, hobby and light household projects. They suit any hot glue gun that takes a 7.2mm stick, so they are a handy way to keep a compact glue gun stocked for a long run of jobs.
About the formula
These are clear hot melt adhesive sticks. The stick melts inside the glue gun, comes out as a hot, tacky bead, then cools and sets quickly as it returns to room temperature. Craftright describes them as quicker setting than many other glue types, and as giving a secure bond on many different materials.
Where to use it
Indoors: craft and hobby projects, model making, decorating, small repairs and general fixing around the house.
Outdoors: no outdoor or weather-resistance claims are confirmed for this product, so test a sample first if you plan to use it outside.
Suitable for joining a range of common craft and household materials. Because the maker does not list specific surfaces, always test on a small hidden area first, particularly on foam, thin plastics and other heat-sensitive materials.
How to use it
Make sure the surfaces are clean, dry and free of dust, oil and grease. Load one stick into a hot glue gun that accepts 7.2mm sticks and let the gun heat fully, following the gun maker's instructions. Apply a bead to one surface, press the parts together promptly and hold them still until the glue has set and cooled.
Important notes
Use only in guns designed for 7.2mm sticks. Do not force a stick into a gun with a wider barrel. Work quickly, because hot melt adhesive starts to set soon after it leaves the nozzle. Open time, bond strength and temperature resistance are not confirmed by the manufacturer for this product, so do not rely on it for structural, load-bearing or high-heat situations.

Safety
Molten glue and the gun nozzle get hot enough to cause burns, so keep them away from skin, children and pets. Do not touch freshly applied glue. Use the gun on a stable, heat-safe surface and unplug it when you finish. If you get hot glue on your skin, cool the area under running water straight away and do not peel the glue off. Refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for full details.
