Glues, Tapes & Lubricants

Solid assembly, secure mounting, and proper maintenance are key to the reliability of any project. In this category, you'll find a wide range of glues, tapes, lubricants, and other chemical preparations essential in the workshop of every FPV, RC, and electronics hobbyist.

We offer products for various applications:

• Glues: Fast-acting cyanoacrylate adhesives (CA / Super Glue - thin, medium, gel, with kicker), strong epoxy glues (two-part), hot glue (for quick fixes and vibration damping), and other specialized adhesives.
• Tapes: Electrical tape, strong double-sided tapes (foam and thin, including VHB), Kapton tape (high-temperature resistant, for masking during soldering), fiber-reinforced tapes for repairs.
• Lubricants and Maintenance Products: Specialized lubricants for brushless motor bearings, servo grease, electronics cleaning agents, dielectric grease for connectors.
• Threadlockers: Essential for securing screws (especially motor screws!) against loosening due to vibration. Most common are blue (medium strength, removable) and red (high strength, difficult to remove).

Properly selected preparations ensure the durability of connections, protection of components, and reliable operation of your equipment.

Choosing the right product depends on the task, the materials being joined, and the operating conditions:

• Glues: CA glue (cyanoacrylate) is ideal for quick repairs and bonding small parts (choose viscosity: thin penetrates gaps, gel fills voids). Epoxy glue creates very strong, structural bonds but requires mixing components and longer curing time. Hot glue is suitable for temporary mounting or vibration damping (e.g., wires).
• Tapes: Electrical tape for basic wire insulation. Double-sided foam tape is great for mounting vibration-sensitive components (e.g., flight controller, receiver). Thin, strong double-sided tapes (like VHB) allow for durable, low-profile mounting (e.g., VTX, LEDs). Kapton tape is indispensable for protecting components during soldering (high-temperature resistant). Fiber tape reinforces cracked parts.
• Lubricants: Use dedicated oils or greases for motor bearings (avoid products like WD-40 which can wash out original grease). Dielectric grease can protect connector contacts from corrosion.
• Threadlocker: Blue (medium strength) is standard for most screws in FPV drones (motors, frame) – it secures against vibration but allows disassembly with tools. Use Red (high strength) only where the connection should be permanent or is absolutely critical. Apply sparingly to clean threads.

Always read the product instructions and use it according to its intended purpose, paying attention to drying/curing time, operating temperature range, or chemical resistance.

Not sure which glue is best for bonding cracked carbon fiber arm? What double-sided tape to choose for mounting a flight controller to minimize vibrations? Is blue or red threadlocker better for M3 motor screws?
