Tile-O-Mite
Hot Melt Adhesive for Gluing Tile Displays
PRODUCT TYPE:
Hot Melt Adhesive.
APPLICATIONS:
This product is a versatile high performance
hot melt adhesive designed for product assembly,
particularly the gluing of ceramic tile
displays. It combines medium open-time,
excellent high and low temperature properties,
oil resistance and adhesion to a broad spectrum
of difficult-to-bond substrates.
It is well suited for
gluing glass, ceramics, plastics and some
treated polyester surfaces. It forms strong
bonds with wood, fabrics, leather and other
porous and fibrous substrates. As with all
adhesives, the user must conduct tests to
determine the suitability of this product
for their use.
We offer this
product in two formulas:
- Bulk 50-pound cartons
(part# tilo-bulk) for bulk systems
- Half-inch stick form,
20-pound cartons (part# tilo-12) for use
