    Description

    Hot glue is another method for mounting specimens to our display stands. With hot glue, you get a more secure, semi-permanent mounting. It also has the advantage that it is less visible when mounting specimens with a small footprint since it can be color matched (crystal clear or black) to our stands, and that less glue is needed to secure the specimen compared to other methods. The trade off is that removal can be more involved than with putty (but isn't nearly as difficult as you might think), and it is not suitable for heat-sensitive specimens or very fragile specimens that may need to be removed.
    The glue sticks we sell have been specially selected for their lasting quality, extreme clarity (for clear), deep black color (for black), flexibility, and ease of removal. If using your own gun, make sure they will fit and are "high-temperature" glue guns of 80W or higher.
    Black sticks are high-temperature, 7/16" (11mm) in diameter and 7.5" (190mm) long.
    Clear sticks are high-temperature, 1/2" (12mm) in diameter and 10" (250mm) long.
    Sold as a 4 pack of black OR clear. Buy more and save more, mix and match colors or all the same!
