3M Hot Melt Adhesive 3748-Q(case)

3M™ Hot Melt Adhesive 3748-Q is heat-applied bonding material intended for plastics, lightweight components and several other industrial substrates. Its compatibility with polyolefins makes it useful for assemblies involving polyethylene and polypropylene.Supplied as a tan-colored thermoplastic, this adhesive changes from a solid to a workable state when heated, then firms up as it cools.

Key Features

• Polyolefin compatibility: Supports bonding applications involving polyethylene and polypropylene.
• Multi-material use: Can be used with selected plastics, wood, fabric, foam and corrugated board.
• Rapid handling: Bond strength develops during cooling, helping reduce assembly delays.
• Temperature performance: Provides thermal shock resistance for applications involving temperature changes.
• High-temperature application: Operates within a recommended application range of 177–196°C.
• Solvent-free composition: Contains 100% solids and is listed as having no VOCs in the product data sheet.
• Industrial processing: Works with compatible hot melt dispensing equipment.
• Different supply options: Available in Q, TC and PG formats, with bulk supply also listed.
