Satellite City Hot Stuff CA Glue – 4 oz. Bottle, Special T Thick, Ultra Gap-Filling
Satellite City Hot Stuff CA Glue in the Special T thick grade is a 1150-1500 cps ultra gap-filling cyanoacrylate supplied here in a 4 oz. bottle, for gaps and missing pieces the thinner grades cannot bridge.
Key Features
- 4 oz. bottle, twice the volume of the HST-4T bottle of the same grade.
- Viscosity 1150-1500 cps, described by the manufacturer as about as thick as cold honey.
- Roughly 5x the viscosity of Super T at 200-300 cps.
- Published by the manufacturer as Special T thick ultra gap-filling CA glue.
- Sets more slowly than the thinner grades; the manufacturer recommends using an NCF accelerator with it.
- Takes the Hot Tips replacement spout, which fits 1 oz., 2 oz. and 4 oz. CA glue bottles.
Who Is This For?
Fabrication shops doing regular chip and corner rebuilds, where material is missing from the joint and the parts cannot be pulled tight. The 4 oz. bottle suits a bench that uses the thick grade routinely rather than for one repair.
What This Is Not For
Not for tight, well-fitting joints, where Satellite City Hot Stuff CA Glue Original Thin at 3 cps wicks in and this grade would simply sit on the surface. For a joint that is only slightly open, the Super T Medium grade is the correct middle rung. Budget for an accelerator alongside it.
