Universal hot melt adhesive for edgebanding machines.

Characteristics edge strip. The strength and resistance of the bonds
RAKOLL hot melt adhesive K4/570 is an EVA depend, among other things, on the percentage of
based synthetic resin with good working properties joint surface that has really been bonded. The heat
that can be used on edge banders. The adhesive resistance of RAKOLL adhesive K4/570 meets all
melts and flows well. It is clean in use and non- the demands made on furniture in cold, moderate or
stringing. RAKOLL hot melt adhesive K4/570 dry and warm climatic zones.
