Open time: 3-4min

Vactac 780

Vactac 780 is a long open time, 15mm stick adhesive for bonding ancillaries in the vacuum infusion process including vacuum bags, tubing and kitting.

The adhesive provides excellent bonds to a wide range of substrates including wood, light-gauge metals and many plastics including PVC and nylon.

After compression of the substrates, bonds can be adjusted for up to three minutes, allowing for repositioning if necessary. Once set, the final bond is more flexible than Vactac 740, important in scenarios where small movements may occur further on in the production process.

Tecbond 280-PL

Tecbond 280 is a high-performance bulk format construction adhesive designed for use in construction applications. The formulation provides excellent adhesion to wood, metal, glass, ceramics, concrete, and most plastics, making it a good all-around bulk adhesive.

Formulated to have an extended open time, the adhesive allows the bonded parts to be adjusted (even after compression) for up to three minutes. Along with its ample open and working time, Tecbond 280 provides a solid yet flexible bond down to temperatures as low as -20°C. This flexibility allows for movement of the materials (for example, thermal expansion of flooring) without compromising the strength of the bond.

Tecbond 440

Tecbond 440 is a polyolefin-based hot melt adhesive designed for use with Tec spray applicators.

The formulation is a very high-performance adhesive designed for use on cardboard, wood, foam and many plastics, even those that have proved difficult to bond. Formulated with a to have an open time of around four minutes when sprayed, Tecbond 440 is ideal for many tough packaging and product assembly applications.

Its high tack leads to a near instant hold and restricts creeping in the compressed bonds.

The adhesive has also been tested against fire, smoke and toxicity, with the results indicating the adhesive is suitable for use with hazard level 2 applications in relation to EN 45545-2 (Rail).

Tecbond 280

Tecbond 280 is a high-performance construction adhesive designed for use in construction and product assembly applications. Based on up-to-the-minute raw material technology, Tecbond 280 provides excellent adhesion to wood, metal, glass, ceramics, concrete, and most plastics.

Formulated to have an extended open time, the adhesive allows the bonded parts to be adjusted (even after compression) for up to three minutes. Along with its ample open and working time, Tecbond 280 provides a solid yet flexible bond down to temperatures as low as -20°C. This flexibility allows for movement of the materials (for example, thermal expansion of flooring) without compromising the strength of the bond.
