Construction-grade quality adhesives

Tecbond hot melt adhesives offer a faster, non-destructive, and more cost-effective way to bond a wide range of materials. For optimal efficiency, Tecbond adhesives have been designed to work in tandem with the Tec range of corded and cordless glue guns.

You don’t need a Ryobi® battery to operate the Tec 308 and 808.

Our battery adapters let you use other popular 18V battery systems, including DeWalt®, Makita®, and Milwaukee®, amongst others, with our cordless tools. Quick and easy to attach, our adapters allow you to continue using your preferred battery platform.
