"Moment Joiner" - wood glue: characteristics, instructions, reviews

In the modern chemical market for construction needs, “Stolyar” glue is popular. This composition, which is also known as “Moment,” is produced at Russian production facilities by the German concern Henkel. The product is known as an excellent adhesive that copes not only with repairs, but also with the manufacture of wood products. It is often used in production and at home. It consists of a polyvinyl acetate dispersion with special plasticizers and additives that help improve adhesion and increase the reliability of the connection.

Consumer Reviews

When making various objects and furniture from wood, nails are not always used to connect elements. According to consumers, the aesthetic appearance deteriorates if there are extra holes on the surface. In this regard, manufacturers try to abandon them whenever possible, using other connection methods.

An excellent alternative to screws and nails is Moment Joiner glue. According to home craftsmen, in terms of grip it is only slightly inferior to metal products, but remains invisible after the product is completed. Consumers like that the glue does not contain impurities that could disrupt the natural structure of the wood.

Specifications

The described glue can be used for gluing:

• sheathing;
• fabrics;
• foam rubber.

With its help, products are completely assembled from pre-made blanks. In this case, no trace of fastening elements remains on the furniture, which improves aesthetics. The material has an increased water resistance class according to the international classification. It is able to withstand temperatures up to + 70 °C. It has a high adhesion density and is characterized by rapid setting after application.

The application temperature should not be lower than +10 °C so that the composition does not thicken, because under such conditions it quickly loses its characteristics. The average consumption of Moment “Joiner” glue is 150 g per square meter. After the joint hardens, it takes on the color of light-colored wood. If necessary, dry glue can be painted or varnished on top after hardening.

But the composition has one drawback - the drying time.

Moment JOINER

Another effective German glue of incredible quality is not much different from the previous product, although it still has some of its own characteristics.

There is no risk of the glue drying out.

You can choose jars that contain 250 and 750 g. They are usually purchased for the needs of a small carpentry workshop. Usually this “Stolyar” glue lasts for a long time, because on average a little mixture is used for one product. There is no point in purchasing more capacious packaging, because they can simply dry out. Large furniture factories require 3 kg or 30 kg buckets. The factory produces several dozen pieces of furniture every day, so the product will be used up quickly.

Packaging and storage

Adhesives are available in a variety of containers. In everyday life, the most popular are 125 g tubes, as well as 250 g jars. Small packages are equipped with caps, making them more convenient to work with (you can screw the product tightly at any time). Typically, this glue is used to create crafts, carry out minor repairs to furniture and interior items, and for gluing corners of wallpaper.

Professionals usually choose 3 kg buckets, while furniture factories usually choose 30 kg buckets.

Instant Grip glue is available in additional 100g and 200g packs as it is often used for small jobs that require a quick and reliable bond.

The product should be stored at +5...+30 degrees in the original packaging, tightly twisted and closed. It must be protected from high humidity and direct sunlight. Despite its moderate frost resistance, it is better not to freeze the glue unless absolutely necessary. Otherwise, the frozen product should be brought into a room at room temperature and allowed to melt naturally. When used correctly, Moment adhesives from the Joiner series will become reliable assistants on construction sites and in repairs.

Instructions for using glue

No special knowledge is required to work with glue. You just need to follow the technology and be more attentive to preparing the workplace. Before you start applying the “Joiner” glue, you should process the workpieces. They should be free of shavings, wood dust and burrs. The surface must be sanded and leveled, as imperfections may reduce adhesion.

Before final work, it is necessary to carry out docking without mounting material. This is necessary to understand whether additional processing will be required. Once everything is ready, you can open the container with glue and apply it to both surfaces to be joined in an even, thin layer. To achieve maximum uniformity, use a soft bristle brush.

After the Moment Joiner glue has been applied, the parts are left for 15 minutes in the open air. It is not recommended to walk around the table during this so as not to raise dust. It should not settle on the surfaces to be glued. First, all sawdust and shavings that may interfere with normal gluing should be removed from the parts. Once the treated surface has settled, you can begin joining.

To ensure proper alignment of the parts, it is necessary to prepare guide grooves. If you hit them, it means that the element has fallen into place. The products are pressed against each other with maximum force. The glue should then dry within 24 hours. If necessary, after drying, you will need to remove the remaining mixture mechanically, only then can you begin the final processing of the furniture.
