Glue sticks for school and craft projects

This pack contains four Elmer's E543 glue sticks, each weighing 0.24 oz. The adhesive applies purple so you can see the coverage and dries clear for a neat finish. It is acid free, non-toxic and washable with soap and water. Designed for paper, cardboard, foam board and display board.

Suitable for classroom, home and office use

Teachers, students and hobbyists who need a mess-free, visible adhesive for everyday paper crafts will find this pack convenient. Buyers who need a permanent bond on plastic, metal, fabric or heavy materials should look at a different adhesive type. The small 0.24 oz size is not intended for high-volume or industrial applications.

Disappearing purple formula dries clear

The key specification is the colour-changing property: the glue goes on purple and dries transparent, allowing precise placement before the bond sets. Each stick measures 3.8" L x 3.8" W x 0.7" H and the pack supplies four sticks for extended use.

Questions about this item

How do I apply the 0.24 oz stick without missing spots?

Glide the purple adhesive across the surface; the colour shows exactly where glue has been laid down before it dries clear.

What upkeep does the 4-pack need over time?

Keep each stick capped when not in use so the water-based formula stays moist and ready for the next project.

What stops the bond from holding on heavy cardboard?

The washable formula is designed for paper, foam board and display board; excessive weight or moisture can weaken the joint.
