Frequently Asked Questions
Will these glue sticks work with any mini glue gun?
No. These are specifically designed for the Westcott So Cool! Glue Gun (Model 17874) and are not guaranteed to work properly with other glue guns.
How long does the glue take to set once applied?
The adhesive bonds in approximately 20 seconds, allowing a brief working window for repositioning materials before the glue sets.
What materials can these glue sticks bond?
They work well with paper, foam, fabric, and other standard classroom and craft materials.
Are these glue sticks safe for children to use?
Yes, the low-temperature formulation runs significantly cooler than standard hot glue sticks, reducing the risk of burns — though adult supervision is still recommended for young children.
What diameter are these glue sticks?
They are 7mm in diameter, which is the industry-standard mini glue stick size.
