Excellent Cold Resistance Adheres to many substrates at temperatures as low as - 20ºF without exhibiting any signs of bond failure.
Excellent Creep Resistance Cured adhesive film is extremely tough yet flexible. This allows for differences in thermal expansion and contraction of various substrates without sacrificing bond performance.
Excellent Environmental Resistance Cures to form a very strong bond that is resistant to heat, cold, moisture, and many solvents.
Versatility Adheres to a wide variety of core stocks and skins.

- Applications
- 2003 is effective for automotive interior trim applications.
- Additionally, the intrinsic chemical nature of wood and wood products makes 2003 ideal for bonding soft woods, hard woods, particle board, MDF, papers and wood veneers. It bonds equally as well to EPS, PU foam, aluminum, steel and various steel coatings, including epoxy/phenolic coatings, and various plastics, such as PP, PVC, ABS, and SMC.
- Use Precautions
Product is ready-to-use as received; do not dilute hot melt adhesive. Confirm compatibility before making hot melt adhesive changes.
