The Surebonder Specialty Series CL-800F is a high-power, 60W glue gun designed for bonding dense materials like metal, ceramics, and leather. Unlike standard 20W hobby guns, this model offers a significantly higher melt rate for 11mm full-size sticks. It is designed for thermal mass retention, allowing the user to remove it from the docking station for approximately 2 to 3 minutes of cord-free application before it needs to be reheated on the base.
The unit is constructed from heat-stabilized plastic and features a ball-check nozzle designed to reduce "glue drool." The docking station serves as the power source and includes copper contact pins; keeping these pins clean and free of debris ensures consistent heating performance. The ergonomic full-size trigger is built to reduce hand fatigue during large-scale projects that require a high volume of adhesive.
Practical Usage Tips
- Best used for projects requiring strong, structural adhesion.
- Requires the docking base to maintain operational heat.
- Full-size 11mm sticks provide longer run times between reloads.
If your work primarily involves small, intricate crafts where a 60W tool might be too bulky, the Mr. Pen Mini Glue Gun provides a more compact alternative.
