Size:
Glue sticks come in various sizes, but they are generally compact and easy to hold in your hand.
Common sizes include small sticks suitable for precise tasks and larger sticks for more extensive applications.
Adhesive Material:
The core of the glue stick contains a solid adhesive substance.
This adhesive is usually non-toxic, water-based, and dries clear.
Some glue sticks are available with different formulations, such as washable, permanent, or photo-safe varieties, depending on the intended use.
Application:
To apply the glue, you twist the base of the tube to push the adhesive stick up through the top.
The glue is applied by rubbing it directly onto the surface you want to bond or glue together.
It goes on smoothly and can be easily controlled for precision work.
Drying Time:
Glue sticks are known for their quick-drying properties.
Depending on the brand and type of glue stick, it typically dries within a few minutes to several hours.
Quick-drying glue sticks are ideal for projects where you need an instant bond.
