Set timeThis is a featured page

The amount of time it takes for glue in an assembly to dry or cure sufficiently for the clamps to be removed. Set time varies depending on temperature, glue type, and humidity. Use the following times as rough guidelines:
  • Aliphatic resin (yellow) -- 30-60 min.
  • Polyvinyl acetate (white) -- 30-65 min.
  • Water-resistant (yellow) -- 60 min.
  • Polyurethane -- 60 min.
  • Epoxy -- Varies by type
  • Liquid hide glue -- 60 min.


Note: Several manufacturers offer quick-set glues that achieve high tack (stickiness) just after application. Use these for assembling moldings and other difficult-to-clamp projects requiring hurry-up adhesion.
