CHARLOTTE, N.C. ‚– Power Adhesives introduces the TEC‚â„¢ 6100 hot melt glue gun for applying hot melt adhesives to sand cores in sand or die casting foundries or steel dies for faster, more efficient bonding than other bonding systems such as water-based glues.

Benefits over other fixing systems include instant bonding with no wait time, improved bond application and accuracy, increased productivity and a reduction of scrap.


The TEC‚â„¢ 6100 hot melt glue gun from Power Adhesives has highly efficient twin 250 Watt steel heaters along with 500 Watts of power to meet the most demanding foundry application. Features include a fully enclosed heater housing with silicon rubber nozzle shroud for operator safety and a power-on warning indicator light for easy monitoring. A fast, even and controllable melt rate with two-piece easy flow nozzle assure fast and smooth molten glue flow for better control of the adhesive.


Advanced design housing of the TEC‚â„¢ 6100 offers maximum thermal efficiency for a fast warm up time of no more than five minutes from cold.


The gun is loaded with 1 ‚¾-inch adhesive cartridges and reloading the cartridge takes only seconds. An audible and visual signal minimizes down time. Melt rate is up to 9 lbs/hour, depending on the adhesive used and temperature requirements. Easy to Use


To use the TEC‚â„¢ 6100, connect the glue gun to an electrical supply. The adhesive melts inside the gun chamber and once melted can be extruded directly onto the sand or foam mold.


The TEC‚â„¢ hot melt glue guns comply with worldwide industrial and safety standards and are available along with spare parts and accessories through
