Description

Beacon Foam-Tac is the flexible, clear-drying adhesive Twisted Hobbys relies on for building and repairing EPP aircraft. Its UV-resistant formula bonds common airframe materials without foaming or expanding, while the finished joint remains flexible to move with the foam instead of becoming brittle.

A Flexible Bond Made for Foam Aircraft

Foam-Tac remains flexible after curing, helping bonded joints move with the airframe during normal use and hard impacts. It dries clear, will not foam or expand, and does not require a separate accelerator.

Recommended Application Method

Prepare the surfaces. Make sure both bonding surfaces are clean and dry.

Apply the adhesive. Spread a thin, even layer on both surfaces to be bonded.

Build the tack. Allow the glue to air-dry for a few seconds, press the parts together, and pull them apart. Wait a few seconds and repeat.

Complete the bond. Wait a few more seconds, align the parts carefully, and press them firmly together.

RC Building and Repair Applications

Airframe Assembly: Foam-to-foam joints and structural airframe sections

Repairs: Cracks, splits, and separated foam components

Hardware: Motor mounts, control horns, and control rods

Electronics: Attaching servos and securing lightweight equipment

Wire Management: Tacking down wires inside the airframe

Compatible Materials: EPP, EPO, Depron, Styrofoam, smooth and rough foam, balsa wood, carbon fiber, plastics, and additional hobby materials.

How Much Glue Should I Order? Twisted Hobbys recommends at least one 1 oz tube for most smaller aircraft and two 1 oz tubes for aircraft measuring 35 inches or larger.

Cure and Storage: Maximum bond strength is achieved within 24 hours or less. Allow important structural joints to cure before placing them under flight loads. Replace the white cap after use and store the tube at room temperature away from heat. Refrigeration or freezing is not required.

Best price i can find

Posted by Adam Mandano on Sep 20th 2016

Always support twisted models since they are in a legal of their own. Beacon Foam Tac is the best EPP glue out of anything out there. Twisted has the best prices on their glues as well. Good product and service will purchase again.

1st choice

Posted by Bob L. on Sep 15th 2016

I have a Veloxity that I assembled with Foam Tac. The glued joints have never come apart. I have made countless field repairs that are virtually invisible and have allowed me to fly within an hour.

GOOD STUFF

Posted by Scott Davis on Sep 9th 2016

I really like that it is flexibility. Good for joining foam on electric models. I'd stick with epoxy and carpenters glue for nitro and gasoline models.

Welders Alternative

Posted by Chris D. on Sep 5th 2016

Never... Never... Never... thought I would use anything but Welders to Build a EPP Foamie. I tried FoamTac on my last build, a Fokker Dr.1, and was surprised and impressed. FoamTac all the way now for me on all future builds. Great Glue.

Best EPP glue...PERIOD!!

Posted by Decal Dennis on Aug 24th 2016

I have been using Welder's glue on my foamie builds for many years, somewhat recently a friend told me about Beacon Foam-Tac, so I decided to give it a try on my last TH build....I don't think I will ever use welders glue ever again! The beacon foam-Tac glue has very little if any odor, provides a good tack set in no time, so you can continue to build and has a good firm set in about 24 hours and unlike Welders glue, Beacon Foam-Tac won't yellow over time.

No more smell!

Posted by Unknown on Aug 23rd 2016

Best part of this product is the no more small compared to Welders. Its more expensive but it seems to work as good or better. Also you get more in a tube. Drys quick and clean will be using on all my epp models for now on.

Works well on most surfaces

Posted by Mark Beltran on Aug 20th 2016

It does not have the strong smell that Goop or Welders or E6000 has. It has a similar drying time than the competition. It dries clear and glossy with a hard rubber texture. I give it 4 stars instead of 5, because it's very expensive.

Best glue on the market for EPP

Posted by Jay Black on Aug 15th 2016

I love this glue it has very little odor. Some are very strong smelling for me.
