This is a Session Cookie (session cookies are temporary and are erased when you close your browser). Addition of too much water will seriously reduce the rate of setting and the gluing properties, particularly at low temperatures. Ensure the wood substrate is sound, smooth, level, clean, dry and free of any dust, dirt, wax, loose paint, incompatible curing compounds or fire retardant chemicals, fungicides, release agents, sealers, or any other foreign substances that might interfere with a good bond. Taking the product back to it's original glory, Ureka have reformulated Cascamite back to its former glory. Ureka’s PVA’s include Woodstikk D3 PVA Wood Glue (a D3 grade woodworking adhesive) and Woodstikk D4 PVA Wood Adhesive (a higher water resistant D4 grade woodworking adhesive).

A brief guide showing the differences between Cascamite and PVA wood adhesives, what they bond, and which is the best adhesive to use.The powder system enables extremely good gap filling properties ensuring water does not enter the joint and produces the strongest bond. Cascaphen is a professional, two part glue has been specially developed for waterproof exterior use and can stand continuous immersion in water. It is especially suitable for joinery, cabinetwork and assembly gluing, particularly when small amounts of glue mix are needed, or when demand is such that the use of a liquid adhesive is uneconomic. This new Cascamite adhesive formulation is not the same product as the Aerolite UP4145, but rather our own new and improved version of Cascamite. Protect and preserve interior and exterior wood against rot, mould, algae, fungal growth, insect attack and more with these treatments and woodworm killers.

Since we have acquired the brand in April 2023, we have reformulated the Cascamite adhesive back to how it used to be many years ago. PVA adhesives, such as Woodstikk® D3 PVA, are water based adhesives based on Poly Vinyl Acetate (PVA). Ideal for joinery, cabinetwork and assembly gluing, particularly when small amounts of glue mix are needed, or when demand is such that the use of a liquid adhesive is uneconomic.One Shot adhesives are ideal for the smaller user as if they are kept dry and in a cool environment, the shelf life is excellent. By adding water to the stated mix ratio, an excellent adhesive is created which bonds wood exceptionally well. Whether to use Cascamite or PVA is a common dilemma amongst trades who are creating products with wood.

Unfortunately, it is not quite as simple as one is better than the other as it really depends on what you are wanting to achieve.Ureka Global have two One Shot or Cascamite type wood adhesives which are the Aerolite UP4145, and the Woodstikk one shot powder adhesive. Many tradesmen who work with wood are familiar with the adhesive “Cascamite” (sometimes spelt “Cascomite”).
