Satellite City Hot Stuff CA Glue – 2 oz. Bottle, Original Thin, 3 cps
Satellite City Hot Stuff CA Glue in the Original thin grade is a 3 cps cyanoacrylate in a 2 oz. bottle that has no surface tension, wicks into cracks, and sets in five seconds between tightly fitting, non-porous parts.
Key Features
- Viscosity 3 cps, the thin rung of the Hot Stuff ladder, described by the manufacturer as about as thin as water.
- Sets in five seconds between tightly fitting, non-porous parts.
- No surface tension, so it wicks into cracks rather than sitting on top of them.
- 2 oz. bottle, the size Satellite City lists for this part number.
- Also soaks into porous materials such as wood and stone, and into carbon fiber, fiberglass cloth and other textiles.
- Red label in distributor listings, the trade shorthand for the thin grade.
Who Is This For?
Fabricators tacking a tight hairline crack or a chip back into a countertop, and anyone running a repair where the two faces already meet cleanly and the glue has to travel into the joint by capillary action rather than be spread. Also used on carbon fiber and fiberglass cloth layups.
What This Is Not For
Wrong grade wherever there is a visible gap or a missing chip: at 3 cps it runs straight out of an open joint. Use Satellite City Hot Stuff CA Glue 2 oz. Super T Medium for gap-filling, or the Special T Thick grade for gaps and missing pieces Super T cannot bridge. The five-second figure applies to tight, non-porous fits; on porous stone the set is not five seconds.
