Product Description
Starbond Thick Super Glue is a slow-setting, gap-filling cyanoacrylate adhesive designed for uneven parts, angled surfaces, and joints that need additional positioning time. Its 2,000 cP, honey-like consistency fills gaps from 0.01 to 0.02 inch while staying where it is applied, making it useful for RC model assembly, repairs, woodworking, and general workshop projects.
Thick CA Glue Overview
Controlled Gap-Filling Adhesive
Consistency
Honey-Like Flow
Set Time
Approx. 30 Seconds
Included
Pin Cap + 4 Microtips
Controlled Placement for Gaps and Uneven Joints
The thick formula stays in place instead of running quickly through a joint. Its slower set provides time to position parts accurately, while the gap-filling consistency helps bond surfaces that do not fit perfectly together.
Recommended Application Method
1
Prepare the surfaces. Make sure the parts are clean, dry, and test-fitted. Lightly scuff very smooth bonding surfaces when appropriate.
2
Apply a controlled bead. Use the standard nozzle or a microtip to place adhesive only where the gap or bonding area requires it.
3
Position the parts. Join and align the surfaces carefully, using the additional working time to make final adjustments.
4
Hold until set. Keep the joint secure for approximately 30 seconds and leave it undisturbed while the bond continues curing.
RC and Workshop Applications
Uneven Joints: Bonding parts that do not fit tightly or uniformly
Gap Filling: Filling small voids from 0.01 to 0.02 inch
Angled Surfaces: Controlled application with reduced dripping and runoff
Balsa and Plywood: Model assembly, reinforcement, and repair work
RC Tires and General Repairs: Securing compatible rubber tires and completing routine workshop projects
Material Compatibility: Thick CA is best for rigid or uneven joints where gap filling is needed. Test it on scrap material before use because cyanoacrylate may damage certain foams, plastics, or finishes. It is not a substitute for
Foam-Tac on flexible EPP airframe joints.
Choose the Right Viscosity: Thick CA provides the most gap filling and positioning control. Choose
medium CA for smaller gaps and general assembly or
thin CA for capillary wicking into tightly fitted joints.
Important Safety and Storage: Cyanoacrylate adhesive bonds skin and eyes rapidly. Use with eye protection and adequate ventilation, keep away from children, and avoid contact with cotton or wool because a rapid heat reaction may occur. Wipe the nozzle clean, replace the pin cap after use, and store the bottle upright in a cool location.
