Outus 50 Pcs Glue Strips with Mesh Backing Thermal Binding, 9 mm

Came in a bit on the yellowish side, a lot of them were stuck together but easily pulled apart. Very low odor when heated. I’m happy with this purchase.

As an elementary librarian, I am absolutely in love with my CoverOne machine, but my bank account loves these glue strips! They work especially well with smaller paperbacks like the My Weird School series and are easy to cut and fit along the spine. What I especially like about these are the adhesive tabs along the back that help the strips to stay in place when moving the books before the glue is heated. So far, I've found them to be as effective as the original strips that came with my machine. If you're on the fence, just go ahead and get these. You won't regret it!

Easy to use with good adhesion.

These work great in my thermo bind machine. I use these to repair library books

I used these to bind a paperback book and it does an excellent job holding all the loose leaf papers together. Not messy and drippy either. And I really appreciated the sticky tabs to help place it before heating it up so it doesn’t dislocate when I placed the book inside my thermal binder. Definitely recommend!

Nice glue for binding paperbacks, doesn't bind heavier items like chipboard or plywood for hardcovers but good with paperback fabric binding. Slow to dry takes 50 minutes but binds securely with 2 strips. The fact that they use weaker glue and it requires 2 strips annoys me.

I prefer these now to the other strips without mesh inside. These being individual strips instead of a roll makes them easy to use. They function as intended, I've made several paperbacks relatively easy now.

I’m still trying to figure out the best way to use these. They are a little messy

I just opened the box and couldn't take the strips out of it because they had melted... I have to separate them with an Exacto knife which is a huge waste of time and some parts have melted so much that i just cannot use them...
