The knottec® system from Power Adhesives is now available with the option of a brand new, battery powered glue gun – the b-tec 807.
This repair process for knot defects and other forms of deep wood damage can now be used with the fully-portable b-tec 807.
The b-tec 807 has been designed to use the widely available Ryobi 18V 1.5Ah lithium+ battery and charger, which can achieve recharge times of around 60 minutes. This battery includes an on-board four-stage fuel gauge to indicate how much charge is remaining, making it easier for users to know when a charge is required. It can also be used to run a range of Ryobi power tools.
Knots and deep scratches in wood can be filled quickly and easily using a special knot-filling adhesive developed by the company, with the help of a 12mm hot melt glue gun like the b-tec 807.
The system also includes a pair of handy heat-sink blocks that can be used to create a form around any knot holes that go through, or are on the edge of, areas of wood that need repair.
Once the damaged area has been filled, the knottec knot-filling adhesive takes just minutes to cool before the excess can be trimmed with a flush plane tool, such as the Mouseplane.
The repaired area can then be sanded, painted or treated as normal, achieving a high-quality finish to the restored wood.
Because it’s so tough, knottec is perfect for repairs to things like wooden doors, window frames, furniture, floors, and more. This knot-filling adhesive is also available in six different colours to help users achieve the best colour match possible.
Power Adhesives offers a choice of two additional mains-powered 12mm glue guns for use with the knottec system – the light industrial tec 305 and the professional tec 820 – as well as the Mouseplane tool for trimming away excess glue.
Cost-effective knottec kits containing everything users need to get started in a practical carry case are also available.
