4-008-41-0260 4008410260 Heating Rods Edge Banding Machine Accessory

Product Description

Glue that stops melting on a Homag edgebander is usually a dead heating rod, not a dead glue pot. This is the 4-008-41-0260 (4008410260) rod that sits in the Homag glue pot and melts the adhesive. It carries the part number of the rod you take out, so it goes straight back into the same bore. OEM builds are supported, MOQ is 10 pcs, supply reaches 100,000 pcs a month, dispatch takes 1-7 working days, packing is a carton box and payment is T/T. One rod brings the pot back.

A Homag glue pot fails in three stages, none of them announced. First the band lifts at the panel end while the pot still feels warm. Then the melt turns grainy and strings at the pressure roller. Then nothing melts, the line stops, and somebody hunts for a spare nobody stocked. All three are one part losing output: the heating rod in the pot.

The 4-008-41-0260 (4008410260) heating rod is the replacement element for that position, specified for melting glue in Homag woodworking edgebanders. It is a straight sheathed rod with a flange that seats it at the original pot depth, and a braided lead to the machine's terminal block. As the number is the original one, the rod drops into the bore the failed one came out of.

The number matters because the same glue pot family takes nine other heating tubes: 4-008-41-0096, 4-008-40-0130, 4-008-41-0297, 4-008-41-0214, 4-008-41-0250, 4-008-41-0251, 4-008-41-0298, 4-008-41-0290 and 4-008-41-0236. They are not interchangeable, and a catalogue photo will not separate them. One number settles it before a carton is opened.

The rod is specified for regular maintenance of the glue pot, so it can be stocked ahead of a failure instead of ordered after one. MOQ 10 pcs, monthly supply 100,000 pcs, dispatch in 1-7 working days, payment T/T, carton box. OEM builds follow your diameter and length, from 10 pcs. Origin: China Mainland.

Product Features

Each point below can be checked against the rod in your hand before ordering.

• Two formats, one rod — 4-008-41-0260 and 4008410260 both order the same heating rod, so the format your system stores is not an issue.
• Melting glue, nothing else — the rod is built for the Homag glue pot, so it is a direct replacement and not a general heater to be adapted.
• Sheathed body with a top flange — the flange stops the rod at the depth it came out of, so the heated length sits in the melt again.
• Braided lead, sleeved exit — the cable leaves the rod through a braided conduit and the split point is sleeved, so the run to the terminal block is protected.
• Nine cross-referenced tubes — 4-008-41-0096, 4-008-41-0214, 4-008-41-0250, 4-008-41-0251, 4-008-41-0297, 4-008-41-0298, 4-008-41-0236, 4-008-41-0290 and 4-008-40-0130 cover the other positions.
• MOQ 10 pcs — ten rods is one repair plus nine on the shelf, the way a glue pot failure is normally budgeted.
• 100,000 pcs a month — supply is sized for repeat orders from a distributor, not for one repair at a time.
• Dispatch in 1-7 working days — the rod leaves inside a week of the order, counted in working days.
• OEM to your diameter and length — a non-standard rod is quoted from the diameter and length of the old one, from 10 pcs.

Product Parameters

Product Advantages

A stopped glue pot usually leaves two options: wait for a service visit, or order a rod that looks close enough. This part removes both.

• A part number instead of a measurement. Ten digits decide the order, so nobody has to measure a failed rod in a cold pot at the end of a shift.
• One number closes the pot. The nine sister tubes are listed beside this one, so a mixed glue pot is quoted from one inquiry instead of nine searches.
• Stock that matches the failure rate. A 10 pcs minimum against 100,000 pcs monthly supply means a spare can sit on the shelf without a special order.
• A repair the size of the part. Only the rod is renewed — the pot body, the sensor and the existing wiring stay where they are.
• Downtime counted in days. Dispatch in 1-7 working days keeps a stop inside a week rather than a month waiting on a distributor.
• Custom sizes start where stock does. OEM rods from 10 pcs mean a non-standard pot is not a reason to keep hand-feeding glue into the slot.
• Packing that arrives straight. The rod travels in a carton box, bubble wrapped, so a 10 pcs order does not turn up with the leads bent.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this rod fit my Homag edgebander glue pot?

Yes, if the rod you take out carries 4-008-41-0260 or 4008410260. The part number is the fitment, so read it off the failed rod or the machine parts list before ordering.

Is 4-008-41-0260 the same part as 4008410260?

Yes. The two formats order the same heating rod, one written with separators and one without, so either can be quoted.

Which other heating tubes fit the same glue pot?

Nine others are listed: 4-008-41-0096, 4-008-41-0214, 4-008-41-0250, 4-008-41-0251, 4-008-41-0297, 4-008-41-0298, 4-008-41-0236, 4-008-41-0290 and 4-008-40-0130. They are separate parts for separate positions, not substitutes for each other.

What is the minimum order for this heating rod?

10 pcs. That is the production minimum for the standard rod and it is the same figure for an OEM rod built to your diameter and length.

How fast does it ship?

In 1-7 working days, counted in working days from the order. Price is negotiated per inquiry, payment is T/T, and the rod travels in a carton box.

Can you build the rod to our own diameter and length?

Yes, OEM is supported. Send the diameter and length taken from the old rod and the order starts at 10 pcs.

What else should I replace while the pot is open?

Check the heating plate, the thermocouple and the heating sensor. All three are available alongside the rod, so one shipment can cover the whole glue pot.

Does it need maintenance once it is in?

Regular maintenance of the glue pot and the heating element is what the part is specified for, so a replacement can be scheduled instead of waiting for the melt to stop.
