Product Description
-------------------
3M Hot Melt Adhesive 3792 is a clear, multipurpose adhesive for
effectively bonding wood, lightweight metals and some plastics in
furniture, upholstery and woodworking applications.
From the Manufacturer
---------------------
This multi-purpose adhesive features a 40 - 50 second open bond,
to allow for positioning and fit adjustment on wood,
polyethylene, polypropylene, corrugated boxes, and lightweight
substrates on furniture, upholstery and novelties. Its nearly
instant bonding property reduces production time for POP
assembly, joining, attaching, securing, repairing, potting, panel
bonding, wire tacking, bundling, sealing, encapsulating,
rigidizing, foam bonding, and packaging.
3M Hot Melt Adhesive 3792 is manufactured with 100% solids,
thermoplastic resin for use with either the 3M Scotch-Weld Hot
Melt Applicator LT, LT Quadrack or EC, depending on version. It
is a low-volatile- compound (VOC) and produces minimal
odor when heated, helping to support a comfortable work
environment. This thermoplastic adhesive has excellent thermal
shock, heat resistance, electrical insulating properties, and is
non-corrosive.
About Hot Melt Adhesives
Hot melt adhesives/hot-glue sticks have a relatively hot melting
point that ranges between approximately 250 – 380°F (121 –
196°C), depending on the formulation, and are applied with
hot-melt applicators, commonly referred to as hot-glue s.
Hot-melt glues provide a nearly instant bond between many
plastics, paper and wood, but when the bond is reheated, some
varieties will soften, allowing the bonded surfaces to be
separated. The quick-stick nature of hot-melt adhesives speeds up
operations in packaging and production.
Low melt adhesives/ hot-glue sticks have a relatively low melting
point that ranges between approximately 170 – 250°F (76 – 121°C),
depending on the formulation, and are applied with
low-temperature applicators, commonly referred to as hot-glue
s. Low-melt adhesives are beneficial in that they can be used
to bond heat sensitive materials such as foam and a range of
plastics. They provide a nearly instant bond but when the bond is
reheated, some varieties will soften, allowing the bonded
surfaces to be separated.

The aggressive hot tack nature of low-melt adhesives speeds up
production and assembly operations that involve light gauge
metals, some plastics, and other non-fibrous materials in
addition to building display boards, floral displays, and hobby
projects. These adhesives are also used in manufacturing,
assembly and packaging processes, window, door, construction,
transportation, electronics, and other industries, as well as in
woodworking, assembling building store displays, convention
sample boards, trophies, novelties, upholstery, furniture, audio
components, and cabinets.
