How to significantly increase the strength of superglue and other life hacks

1. Superglue flows out from the cut tip in a thick stream, which leads to excess consumption of glue and does not improve the quality of joining the parts. Having bitten off the tip of the medical needle with a side cutter, and having removed the burrs with a file, we put the needle on the plastic tip. Now the glue flows out of the container in a thin strip.

You can also make neat glue “dots” if necessary. To prevent the glue in the needle from hardening, after finishing the work we put the “original” cap on the needle.

2. It is safer to remove some defects on the surface of materials or gaps between parts superglue using eggshells. To do this, we turn it into a fine powder using the end of a pencil and a depression in the bottom of an aluminum can.

Sprinkle the defect or gap with powder and saturate it on top superglue. The reliability of the connection is incredible in terms of adhesion and hardness.

3. A metal tube attached to the end of a wooden rod using superglue, it is impossible to remove, even armed with pliers.

It can be easily removed using the fingers of one hand if the joint is heated with a lighter flame.

4. If one or more clothes dryer crossbars have become detached from the base unit, there is no reason to purchase a new product.

Sprinkle the contact area of ​​the parts to be joined with baking soda and soak the powder with superglue.

To ensure reliability, we wrap the connection several times with ordinary sewing threads crosswise and also impregnate it with superglue.

The strength of the connection is such that the dryer will last for many years after such repairs.

5. Superglue that gets on the skin quickly sets and cannot be removed by simply wiping with napkins or washing with soap.

Dried glue can be easily removed with a multi-edged razor.

6. Overdried materials do not stick well with superglue.

By applying a small amount of water to one of the surfaces to be bonded and glue to the other, the quality of gluing can be increased several times.

7. To automatically open the handles of pliers or pliers, you can place a spring from a clothespin in their base in the front part. To fix the spring, sprinkle the places where it contacts the handles with baking soda and soak the soda powder with superglue on top.

8. Bend the plastic drinking straw along the corrugated part (elbow) 180 degrees and cut the long end of the tube to a short one. We compress the corrugation with pliers and seal it tightly in the flame of a lighter. Using a medical needle, fill one side of the V-shaped joint with superglue, and fill the other with baking soda. We also seal both ends hermetically. In this packaging, the ingredients can be stored for years.

If necessary, cut off the sealed end with soda with scissors and pour the contents into the desired place, then open the end with superglue and soak the powder in it.

9. Evenly saturate the soft, zero-stiffness fabric with superglue and turn it into a rigid and fairly durable plate. Surely, the modernized fabric can be put to good use in this way.

10. It's not just baking soda soaked in superglue that turns into a monolith. This metamorphosis occurs with both ground coffee and granulated sugar.

11. A crack in the material can be eliminated by sprinkling it with finely divided eggshells and soaking it on top superglue. Egg shells can be crushed into powder using the end of a pencil in the bottom of an aluminum can.
