Working together, our team evaluated the entire application—not just the adhesive. By combining HAR's application expertise with ITW Dynatec adhesive application technology, we developed an innovative in-line solution that applies hot melt pressure sensitive adhesive during the tube winding process, before the tube is cut to length.

In adhesive applications, "stitching"—the process of applying adhesive in intermittent dots or short bursts instead of a continuous bead—is a proven way to cut down on adhesive usage and reduce costs. It's a valuable strategy in many industries, especially when product strength and performance aren’t compromised.
