Thermoset Adhesive Offers Speed and Strength for Custom Cabinetry
Hendrix has been building cabinets since 1964. “Custom cabinetry in Florida runs the gamut from the one-man, no-shop guy who builds on-site, to the major factory with a showroom to support it,” said Hendrix. “We think we’re the best of both worlds. While most shops use either Formica® or wood, we use both. Our customers can choose materials to suit their needs and budgets.”
Instead, the company uses 3M™ Jet-Weld™ Thermoset Adhesive. The advantages of Jet-Weld Adhesive are its speed and strength. A thin bond line can achieve handling strength within seconds, and within 10 minutes can have a holding strength as high as half a ton. Its full-surface bond eliminates stress points – whereas fasteners concentrate them.
