Fasten master has replaced the popular Ub8012 hot melt glue by PAM with Fmflex40 and FMFLEX180. The HB220 hot melt glue gun can easily create a high strength bond between carpet tack strips or metal clips and finished concrete, fiber cement backer board, or wood prior to the carpet being stretched over a floor. The major advantages in using Fmflex40 glue with the HB220 gun are strength of the bond and the quick 5- minute set up time of the adhesive. This allows the carpet installer greater productivity by not having to come back the next day or wait hours for the adhesive to fully cure before stretching carpet. The Fmflex40 must be applied at the pre-set temperature of 390 degrees on the HB220 glue gun in order to achieve maximum bond strength and an open time of 40 seconds. For project that may need longer than 40 second working time use FMFLEX180. Fastenmaster's new FMFLEX180 gives you 180 seconds of working time with a full bond time in 8 minutes. Fmflex 180 is strong enough to be used in hardwood floor starter and finish rows, interior wood trim, bullnose, t-molding and many, many more applications.
