Marabu Fixogum is a gel adhesive supplied in a squeezable glue tube, formulated for bonding cardboard, paper and certain plastics. The 50 g gel offers controlled application from the tube tip, allowing precise placement of adhesive for crafting, minor repairs and general fixing tasks. The gel consistency reduces dripping and spreading, and is designed to adhere well to porous surfaces while also providing workable adhesion to some non-porous plastics.
Advantages
The gel formula enables accurate dosing and targeted application without excessive run-off. Its consistency minimizes mess and makes it easier to join small components or apply adhesive along edges. The tube packaging provides convenient storage and repeatable use, while the product’s compatibility with cardboard, paper and many plastics covers a wide range of everyday tasks. The adhesive sets to form a secure bond suitable for craft projects and light repair work.

How to use
Prepare surfaces by ensuring they are clean, dry and free of dust or oil. Cut or pierce the tube tip as needed to achieve the desired bead size, then apply a thin, even line or small dots of gel to one of the surfaces. Press the parts together and hold briefly to obtain initial contact; allow sufficient time for the adhesive to set fully before subjecting the bond to stress. For non-porous plastics, test on a small area to confirm compatibility and adhesion strength.
Usage recommendations
Store the tube tightly closed in a cool, dry place. Avoid freezing and protect from direct heat. Use in well-ventilated areas and keep out of reach of children. For best results, apply moderate pressure during initial contact and allow full curing time before handling.
