Tecbond 561 Shock-Resistant Plasterboard Adhesive Hot Glue Sticks

Power Adhesives Tecbond 561 is a high-performance EVA adhesive formulated for professional plasterboard and drywall fabrication. These 5/8" (15mm) glue sticks feature a low viscosity that improves flow and surface penetration, helping create strong, consistent bonds that increase the handling strength of finished elements.

Designed for V-groove applications, this adhesive produces a tough, shock-resistant bond that is typically stronger than the plasterboard itself. The aggressive molten tack removes the need for extended holding or clamping, allowing installers to work efficiently while maintaining reliable bond integrity.

The Advantages of Tecbond 561 Hot Melt Glue Sticks

• Shock Resistant Bonding: Creates a tough bond that increases the handling strength of finished drywall elements.
• Low Viscosity Formulation: Improves adhesive flow and surface penetration for superior connection integrity.
• Fast Setting: Molten tack removes the need for extended holding or clamping periods during fabrication.
• High Performance: Delivers a bond so strong that the plasterboard will typically break before the adhesive fails.
• FDA Compliance: Meets FDA 175.105 for indirect food contact.
