Product Description
TS Boy Refillable Glue Pot – Replacement Container
The TS Boy Glue Pot is a reusable adhesive container designed for workshop use, helping keep a convenient working quantity of adhesive ready for application while reducing unnecessary waste, spills and evaporation.
Its enclosed design incorporates a working opening, scraper edge and dedicated brush storage area, providing a practical way to use semi-liquid adhesives during footwear repair, orthotic manufacture, leatherwork and general workshop applications.
Key Selling Points
Helps Keep Adhesive Fresh
The enclosed container helps reduce unnecessary exposure of the adhesive to the surrounding air between applications, helping maintain a usable working quantity for longer.
Reduced Adhesive Waste
Instead of repeatedly working directly from a large adhesive tin, a smaller quantity can be transferred into the TS Boy for everyday workshop use.
Integrated Scraper Edge
The dispensing area incorporates a scraper bar that allows excess adhesive to be removed from the brush before application, helping improve control and reduce dripping.
Built-in Brush Storage
A dedicated brush holder keeps the applicator conveniently positioned at the glue pot, helping create a tidier and more efficient workstation.
Refillable and Reusable
The TS Boy is intended to be refilled rather than discarded after use, providing a practical solution for workshops that regularly use contact adhesives and other suitable semi-liquid glues.
Workshop-Friendly Design
The stable base and enclosed reservoir make the container suitable for frequent bench-top use in footwear, orthotics, leatherwork and similar manufacturing or repair environments.
How the TS Boy Works
A working quantity of suitable adhesive is transferred from the main container into the TS Boy reservoir.
The adhesive can then be accessed through the application opening using a suitable glue brush. Before application, the brush can be drawn across the integrated scraper edge to remove excess adhesive and control the amount being applied.
When the brush is not in use, it can be positioned within the dedicated holder. The enclosed construction helps limit unnecessary exposure of the stored adhesive between applications.
Ideal For
Footwear & Orthotics Workshops
- Footwear manufacturing and repair
- Orthotic fabrication
- Shoe modification
- Soling and finishing work
- Leather and footwear component bonding
General Workshop Applications
- Leatherwork
- Craft and fabrication work
- Manufacturing environments
- Bench-top adhesive application
- Repeated use of suitable semi-liquid adhesives
Why Use a Dedicated Glue Pot?
Repeatedly opening a large adhesive tin during workshop production can be inconvenient and may expose more adhesive than necessary to the surrounding air.
The TS Boy allows a smaller working quantity to be kept close to the workstation while the main adhesive container can remain closed. This can help minimise unnecessary adhesive exposure and improve control during routine application.
The integrated brush position and scraper edge also help organise the workstation and reduce excess adhesive on the brush before application.
