KDT Edgebander Glue Pot Guide Woodworking Machinery Accessories For KDT

Replacing the guide that sits in the glue pot of a KDT edge bander? This is the steel glue pot guide listed for KDT edgebanding machines: 0.15 kg net weight, steel body, chrome-plated working face, one piece per pot, catalogue number 48692835. Compare it with the worn guide in your pot, confirm the mounting face and the guide edge, and the pot goes back to a centred glue seam without a rebuild. Price is quoted per order.

A glue pot rarely fails all at once. It fails quietly: the glue seam drifts off the panel edge, the band rides a fraction high on one side, and the pot needs scraping twice a shift instead of once. On a KDT edge bander those three symptoms usually trace back to one small wear part, the guide that holds the glue path in line at the pot outlet.

The KDT Edgebander Glue Pot Guide is that part. It is a 0.15 kg steel guide with a chrome-plated face, listed as a woodworking machine accessory for KDT edgebanding machines. It mounts in the glue pot and keeps the melt going where the edge needs it, so the seam stays centred and the band lands flat. The steel body carries the clamp load; the chrome layer takes the hot glue, scrapers and cleaning.

Fitment is a comparison job, not a code lookup. Put the old guide beside the new one and check three things: the mounting face, the guide edge and the overall thickness. The catalogue number is 48692835; at 0.15 kg it posts cheaply and fits one-handed.

No motor, heater or glue roller has to come out. The guide goes back on its own mounting, and the pot returns to service on the same glue setting.

What makes this a stock item for a KDT glue pot rather than a made-to-fit guess.

• Steel body, chrome-plated face. Steel takes the clamp load and the chrome face takes the scraping, so the guide holds its shape through hot-glue contact and cleaning.
• Glue path held on centre. The guide sets where the melt meets the panel edge, which is what keeps the seam straight from the first panel of a shift to the last.
• 0.15 kg spare. One small part, low freight weight, and no lifting gear needed to fit it.
• One piece per glue pot. Count the pots on the line before ordering — a two-pot machine takes two guides.
• Low-stick chrome surface. Hardened melt releases from the plated face more cleanly than from bare steel, so it comes off with a scraper instead of a chisel.
• Listed for the KDT glue pot. Sold as a KDT edgebander accessory, with the mounting pattern of the pot guide it replaces.
• No pot rebuild. The guide is a bolt-on wear part: pot, heater and roller stay where they are.
• Line-serviceable. With the pot cool the guide comes off and goes back on the same mounting, without touching the glue setting.
• Easy to keep in stock. Steel and chrome, not rubber: nothing perishes on a shelf while it waits for the next changeover.

A worn guide leaves two bad options: book the pot out for a rebuild, or run on and hope the seam holds. The third option is a 0.15 kg guide on the shelf.

• Keep the line running. A spare guide turns a wear-out into a change-out, so the pot does not sit waiting on a workshop booking.
• Protect the band, not just the glue. A path held on centre keeps the band on the edge, so trim and scrape units are not cleaning up a misaligned seam.
• Cheap insurance on an expensive pot. The guide carries the wear, so the pot, roller and heater stay out of the wear path.
• Glue consumption stays predictable. A straight path puts the melt on the edge instead of smearing it where the band will not cover it.
• Fit it with one hand. At 0.15 kg on one mounting, the change is a one-person job on a cool pot.
• Order by number, not by memory. The listing number 48692835 is printed on the page, so the next reorder is a lookup rather than a photo and a guess.

It keeps the glue path in line at the pot outlet, so the seam lands on the panel edge instead of drifting. That is the difference between a band that sits flat and one that rides high and gets trimmed twice.

Only if your glue pot uses this guide pattern — check the old part before ordering. Compare the mounting face, the guide edge and the thickness against the photo, and send us a picture of the worn guide if anything does not line up.

No maker's code is published for this part, so order against the catalogue number 48692835 shown on this listing. Quote that number with the guide photo, and the part that ships is the one pictured.

Steel with a chrome-plated face, 0.15 kg net weight per piece. The weight matters for two reasons: freight cost on a spare is small, and it fits with one hand on a cool pot.

One per glue pot. Count the pots on the line first — a machine with two pots needs two guides, and the guide is not shared between them.

With the pot cool, take the worn guide off its mounting and fit the new one in the same position. No drilling, no pot strip-down, and the glue setting stays as it was.

Price is quoted per order, because quantity decides it — there is no fixed list price on this listing. Send the quantity you need and the guide is quoted with freight to your address.

A worn guide shows up as a seam that moves sideways, glue built up on one side of the path, and band edges that sit high but trim square. If the fault follows the pot rather than the panel batch, start with the guide.
