TITEBOND MELAMINE GLUE

Titebond Melamine Glue is designed for bonding wood, particleboard, MDF and other porous substrates to synthetic materials such as melamine, vinyl and HPL as well as metals. It offers a fast initial tack, yet has a longer open time that allows for the accurate alignment of working materials. Titebond Melamine Glue is a water-based adhesive that is nonflammable, has low odor, dries clear and cleans up with water. Its thicker formulation offers fewer runs and drips, making it easier to use and more effective for precise assemblies.

Features & Benefits

Bonds melamine, vinyl coated products, and HPL to porous materials
Thicker formulation - fewer runs and drips
Fast setting - Excellent strength
Dries clear
Long open time
Fast initial tack

Specifications

CONFORMS TO ASTM D-4236

Application Guidelines

Application Temperature: Above 40°F (4°C)
Open Assembly Time: 5 minutes (70 °F./50%RH)
Total Assembly Time: 10-15 minutes (70°F./50%RH)
Minimum Required Spread : Approximately 6 mils or 250 square feet per gallon
Required Clamping Pressure: Enough to bring joints tightly together (generally, 30-80 psi for HPL,100-150 psi for softwoods,125-175 psi for medium woods and 175-250 psi for hardwoods)
Method of Application: Easily spread with a roller spreader or brush, or may be transferred to plastic bottles for finer gluing applications.
Cleanup: Damp cloth while glue is wet. Scrape off and sand dried excess.
