Three Pack for Classroom and Craft Use

This pack contains three 22g purple glue sticks that go on coloured and dry clear so placement is visible during application. The acid‑free, non‑toxic PVA formula is washable and photo‑safe for school projects. Each stick weighs 0.2 lb and measures 4.5" L x 6.875" W x 1.25" H.

Fits Standard Desk Storage and Project Workflows

The L‑shaped sticks sit in a 2.8956 cm x 11.0998 cm x 17.0942 cm carton that slides into a drawer or supply caddy without extra organisers. No batteries or tools are required and the low‑viscosity adhesive bonds paper, cardboard, foam board and display board in about five minutes.

Washable Formula Reduces Clean‑Up Time

Because the glue washes out of clothing and off skin with water, teachers and parents spend less time on stain removal after art sessions. The purple tint disappears as it dries, eliminating guesswork on coverage. The 730‑day shelf life means the three sticks stay usable across multiple semesters.

Questions about this item

How long does the glue stay workable before it fully sets?

The adhesive reaches full cure in about 5 minutes, giving you a short window to reposition paper or board before the bond becomes permanent.

Will the sticks melt or get messy if left in a warm classroom all day?

Each stick is a solid polyvinyl acetate formula that stays firm at normal room temperatures; only direct, sustained heat would soften it.

What surfaces can I use these on right out of the pack?

They bond paper, cardboard, foam board and display board immediately — no primer or extra tools required.
