try testing the peel strength rather then "slide off"
you should rig up something to your crane scale so that you can just stand on it instead of using the sledge hammer
Cyanoacrylate is pronounced cy ano ac re late
The gorilla “Gel” super glue is crazy stuff. Works better than other super glue I’ve used
What about testing cheap vs cheap and expensive vs expensive??
Test the command strips on a painted wall. I think the weight limits will be much closer. Plexiglass is a smooth surface so optimal surface for them.
This ^
Yes this ⬆️⬆️⬆️
I agree. A piece of sheet rock.
He’s just asked about the ratings on them and I come to make this comment.
Also the rating is for constant use, even though it took around 60lbs to break it half that weight would likely do the same given more time
I was about to say this⬆️ dollar store one we’ll rip the wall!! I won’t buy them again also there not that great
As a woodworker, I’ve actually found it quite rare that any commercial wood glue didn’t create a bond stronger than the wood itself. I’ve used glues at all price points and they’ve all performed similarly, with the exception of a few glues that performed poorly on oilier woods. Treating the mating surfaces with lacquer thinner before hand and letting dry thoroughly before gluing also helps make a stronger bond. Next time try testing wood glues on hard maple, rosewood, mahogany or teak. I bet you’ll get an even higher psi before you lose the bond or the wood breaks.
I really need that he sees this comment
i just commented the same thing but without the knowledge lol
Yeah in my experience most wood glues end up stronger than the wood they're joining.
Tyler has little experience with dead tree parts. Don't suggest rosewood to him. Keep him safe. He's too cute to risk it.
Wood glue absolutely creates a stronger bond than most people realize. When I was a teenager, I made a top for a small table, think like nightstand size, by gluing together five different pieces of hardwood and then clamping them together really tight and leaving it for about three days. Wood glue was the only thing holding it together and it was easily as durable as a tabletop make out of a single piece of wood.
I also agree that the cost doesn't really matter. I would say in about 99% cases wood glue is wood glue and more expensive wood glue isn't going to perform better than cheap wood glue. In fact, when my dad had his custom wood furniture business, we bought the more expensive wood glue because it was all that they had, and it was thinner than the cheap stuff and generally more of a pain to work with because it made a mess easier.
If I've learned anything from this channel, when Tyler predicts something, usually the opposite happens lol
The pulley coming off the ceiling was classic.
Whenever*
Just an FYI, Cyanoacrylate (sigh-an-oh-acril-ate) is essentially just the chemical name for super glue. The brands just change proportions of the precursors and add other ingredients to change bonding properties for specific materials.
You could probably explain how meth is made and it would sound like a normal conversation.
@@zachaliles Imean, I have a college text book that showed the class what compound meth is and the reaction that makes it….
@@TJskillz169 hey guys, NileRed here, and today were making methamphetamine
@@Zippytez When NileGreen can't parody the original cause where's left to go
Lol! It hurt my brain how he pronounced it.
Most hooks won’t be used in an ultra smooth, uniform surface, like plexiglass. Instead they will be adhered to wood, stucco, drywall, etc. I am guessing there would be a huge difference in holding power based upon the substrate they are applied to.
Right. I would think those surfaces would fail before the hooks, at least the dry wall. That would be interesting to see as well.
Very true, also I think that even though it can hold a lot of weight, it might only be able to hold that for a short period of time, then the adhesive will gradually slip off. But, it can hold a smaller weight for a very long time without slipping
edit: Nevermind, he goes over that right away lol, I need to watch the video before commenting
@@irchonite1953 He didn't test it long enough to account for "creep." Creep is generally measured in months or years.
I don't think a month long test fits the theme of his testing videos but it's still a variable he didn't test for and could be the reason for the ratings.
Also it’s meant to hold weight, if you were to put 40lbs on long term it would slowly unstick or break
@@parkerbruso4590 Yep. And if he tested it longer the dollar store would probably creep faster at the rated weight and a lot faster when it's used above its rating.
I choose command hooks because command is the brand used as double sided foam tape to hold glass panes on skyscrapers. I'm sure the tape used on the hook isn't as strong but if the company's starting point is tape that can handle that and doesn't lose stickiness over time, or at least they've engineered for that already, it doesn't take much to just use a little less stickiness but leave the rest of the material the same. It still wouldn't creep because the adhesive is designed not to but it would be easier to remove. You're basically paying about 50 cents more to get a product nearly guaranteed to work compared to a mystery manufacturer.
In my experience with command strips, they can hold a bit more than they’re labeled but WILL fall off the wall in the middle of the night
For real. You should see all the paint removed from my walls
Dollar Tree sells that super glue in a 4-pack of mini tubes for $1.25. The best part about those is that each tube is usually all you need for a job, so it doesn’t feel like you’re wasting as much when you toss the tube after one job.
Most hooks are rated low because the companies can't control how customers use them. The strength can vary according to the surface they are put on, whether that surface is clean, etc.
The Dollar Tree glue isn't too cheap. The Locktite is just too expensive because you pay for the name, not for the quality
Look at ProjectFarm's testing of super glues. Locktite is a lot better.
100% agree i have gotten both several times SuperGlue from dollar tree the yellow one is Just as good if not better on certain surfaces
@@riv-slug499 If you just need a fast bond that doesn't have to hold much weight any of them will do the job. If you need it to hold a lot of weight the name brands do a lot better.
See ProjectFarm for good testing.
@@witiwap86 ive seen project farm i tend to disagree i dont believe the quality beats the price
@@riv-slug499 Yep, it almost always comes down to price. Most of the time the extra strength is completely unneeded and it's not worth spending more. But when you do actually need the strength and you can't hold it very long they are still better.
Really though, superglue is rarely the best glue for anything. It's convenient but none of it is as good of a bond as something else. Cyanoacrylate is brittle so any shock or lateral force usually just breaks it. I use gorilla glue for a general purpose glue because it's not brittle unless I want the glue to dry immediately and the brittleness doesn't matter. It's also not the best for anything but it's not brittle so if you're worried about shock it's better, but you pay for the shock resistance with needing to hold it for 5 minutes. If you need to glue wood get wood glue. If you need to bond metal get JB Weld. You trade for the extra bond strength on these by it requiring more cure time.
Edit: And if you don't want a permanent bond use Elmer's. (Like if you want a non-permanent way to stick two pieces of plastic together that aren't holding much force. If you used superglue you'd never get the stuff off whichever side it stayed stuck to when you pulled them apart.)
Command strips are strong enough to to rip 5 inch chunks of drywall and paint off of your walls if you don’t take them off correctly so I was rooting for them😂😂
Uh yeah if my friend ever moves I'm going to need to remove strips for him apparently. Oh well at least we avoided putting nails in his rented apartments walls.
Now if I can just talk him into letting my out holes in the cinder blocks for the heavy paintings.
i'm convinced if you use enough command strips you could stick a trailer to a truck and tow it. highway is out of the question but i would put money on a few blocks.
When doing the wood block tests, glue and hang the blocks against the grain of the wood instead of with the grain as you've been doing. That way it will minimize the blocks failing before the test media.
He is. Wood grain is like a bundle of dry spaghetti. No matter how you put something through it you're either pulling through the grain or just pulling it apart. The problem is that he's drilling into it at all. He'd be better off clamping the wood pieces on the sides to pull or gluing some metal all around the sides of the wood with some holes drilled into the metal. Or putting a ring around each side of the glue and pulling one up and one down. The force wouldn't be directly pulling anymore but the wood wouldn't split. Either the glue would fail or it would tear the wood grains out of the other piece of wood.
If it stays consistent between both blocks it doesn’t matter. Both glues had a fair shot and similar chances
He just needs to use a harder wood instead of a pine.
The hooks are weight rated to be stuck to an uneven painted drywall. Thats why they are so much lower
They hold on just as well like that
Go and try it for yourself
I was thinking hooks were for tiles in a bathroom with high humidity, changing the stickiness over time.
@@troelsnielsen2848 depends on which command hooks you get. They have some specific for bathroom tiles that are rated to get wet
The super glue gel would’ve been better for wood, it’s meant for porous surfaces and the liquidy one is meant for smooth stuff like plastic or metal
The wood broke. Not reason to make the glue stronger when the media being glued is the weak point.
In my experience super glue doesn't stick to anything except my fingers. Surprisingly hot glue seems to hold together better most of the time, considering its just melted plastic.
Would like to see you test the stuff from the mystery boxes you got. Like shooting bottles with the slingshot.
Fun videos! The Dollar Tree super glue and wood glue are actually "Super Glue" brand! The brand that started it all and eventually became the generic term for cyanoacrylate glues.
As far as the tape and zip ties- from my experience, the cheaper stuff doesn't hold up in the long run. Especially exposed to sunlight and weather. Also with cheap zip ties, there tends to be a lot of duds (won't zip or just immediately breaks when you try to tighten any whatsoever)
I haven't had any trouble with mine. But I'm just zip tying a small wire basket to my granny cart. Plus I tend to use extra. But it is exposed to the elements because I ride the bus & use it to carry my bags. I'm disabled so it helps me get around.
But thanks for reminding I need to add extra because I only used 4 so I could easily cut it off if I decided to turn the big side of the basket around.
@@Nirrrina You might want to rethink buying the cheap ones since you're usually paying less because their QC is complete dog shit and more duds get slip through the cracks vs a reputable name brand. Plus insted of using 4 you can probably get away with using 2 and ave more money in the process instead f having to double or triple up on the 4 you already use.
Hey Tyler, I think to test the adhesive on ducttape, you should set it up with the acrylic in almost the same situation you had but with ends off the top side where the paracord is. Then you can just Pull the tape off yourself, from up to down, and see how high the meter gets in force. Please upvote for visability.
I was thinking the same thing. Or, hold the plexiglass flat in the ground with his feet and pull on the pully.
I'm not gonna lie the sponsor for this video actually looks pretty cool and they seem legit Tyler needs to review some of the stuff they send out to him i think it would be an interesting video since it's the type of stuff Tyler would review.
He has done this with similar box services. I know he has done them for at least Battle Box and VAT 19 Mystery Boxes.
I ordered one, 49 bucks for your first box, I could see what's coming,I skipped thru like 10 boxes before I clicked the one I liked, it asks you questions as to what your interested in, me living in a sober living home in Detroit it wouldn't be a good idea to get a bunch of decanters, mixers, swizzle sticks and liquor glasses to a building filled with alcoholics and crack addicts so I got a wood splitter, cool duffle bag and some coffee supplies
@@wairgald Yeah i know he's done similar ones in the past that's why i said it would be interesting for him to review some of these from this company.
I don't think he'll review a sponsor stuff in case it sux! Lol. They won't sponsor somebody crappin all over their product. Lol
Tyler my guy. Can we test glue in a way that doesn't just rely on blocks splitting? Great stuff man
NO
To test the stickiness you could see how much weight it takes to peel the tape off of a surface like the plexiglass.. it doesn't have to "slide" off but it should have a level of resistance to being peeled.
Yes, this is exactly what Project Farm does.
Or a loop of tape between two blocks of wood or pieces of metal
I had those command strips to hold some lights in my backyard, it held for a few months until all the adhesive wore off and everything fell
I have an idea, what can a sink garbage disposal shred
I love watching this guy, especially when i come home drunk froma night out.
Thank u for being the best youtuber
Man this is the best channel on youtube. Would love to see more store brand versus name brand things.
This is a cool idea. I'd like to see more of this same thing but with other dollar tree products that aren't adhesives or for strapping things together. Maybe a range of different types of product of a few types of each. Like some electronics, arts and crafts, tools, etc.
I second this. Please do more dollar tree categories, Tyler.
Tyler tube is like the back of a shampoo bottle in your friends bathroom while your phone is on charge, always there when you need it. Unless your friends are nasty, then its ink blotch game on the ceiling stains.

Currently shitting right now so you're correct.
Everything I’ve ever learned about the ingredients of shampoo, bubble bath, even various salts and creams etc, have all been on the toilet, without a phone.
I love your dollar tree videos! I just can’t get enough Dollar Tree content. They are informative. I make dollar Tree videos too. It’s a pleasure to learn from other talented creators like you! I hope we can learn more from each other!
The fact he was so close to figuring out how to test the stickiness of the tape yet didn’t cracks me up
Odd thing to watch while working at the dollar tree, glad you made the joke I’ve heard from everyone for the past two months “oh is it the dollar twenty-five tree now?” Classic
@Tiki Nalsan thanks for that, really needed to watch inappropriate videos on RUclips
thanks brandon!!!!!

Gorilla Glue. DO NOT USE ON HAIR
For the wood glue test, you should somehow attach pads of wood onto two flat pieces of metal and have the ropes pull on the metal so that there will be no splitting of wood and it be a more accurate test of the glue strength.
You're correct about the long term hanging capacity.
The duct tape from the buck and a quarter store has adhesive which dries out really fast.
This channel literally is the definition of nonsense. Like non-sense. Awesome.🍿
A good test for your block setup would be to make a block with the same wood but without a cut and test that. Then you would get a pretty solid failure rating for the wood alone to compare to. Also with the hooks maybe you could have pumped it up to 40-50lbs and then left it overnight to see if it would hold higher than it's rating for longer? Love your vids man you keep me entertained far too late at night. That sounds dodgy...
Those hooks performed better than expected because you stuck them on glass, which is a completely smooth, flat, nonporous surface, which allows for optimal adhesion. They're usually stuck on painted walls, which aren't as smooth, so there are small divots where the adhesive isn't making full contact.
The zip ties were inconsistent because you had small changes in the sizes of the loops. The smaller the loop, the stronger they are. Bigger loops allow for more leverage which creates a greater force when applying weight. The only way to test them consistently is to precisely count the number of clicks when you're fastening them.
Ah nostalgia, I've been waiting for another glue video.
Would be great if you could get some harder wood and compare again the strongest glues that failed because of weak wood
Just went to dollar tree a couple hours ago, saw the wood glue and said “hmm I wonder if that works” 😂 thanks!
Never bought wood glue from dollar tree before, the most common things I get from dollar tree are batteries and dishwasher detergent
@@DOGMAN201322 have you ever tried the laundry detergent at dollar tree? If so is it any good
@@catfishbilly3.765 it's ok
I'm genuinely impressed that Tyler wore safety glasses.
The strength of tape compounds the more wraps you have. You should wrap the tape around two or three times and then test it just for in the field usage.
The wood absorbs the liquid glue (super glue). Probably would've been better to use metals or plastics to test those.
You should take wood glues and put it through drop tests and stuff to see which glue is best for projects.
also love your videos the electric hammer video made me die.
I use the “Dollar Tree” wood glue for a lot of different things. Everything from crafting projects to home repair. I love the “Dollar Tree” wood glue, so much, my husband bought me a case(12 bottles) of it, incase it is discontinued or my local store quits carrying it, for some reason. It holds well, but beyond that…it dries fairly quick, making it grab hold, so you don’t have to hold on to it, for a long time. I have never had anything fall apart after using it. It always holds well! Love it!
Zip ties 101. ALWAYS get them at Harbor Freight! A 1000 pack of 8" ties is like $16.00 and just as good as any named brand out there. Lots of junk at Harbor Freight, but some very good deals too, like O-rings, gasket material, blades for all types of saws, anchor kits etc... I even took a chance on a welder to replace one I had for about 20 years that stopped working, 4 years in on a $150 welder and it works just as good as my old one I paid like $500 for over 20 years ago.
Now that I've see a dude leave stuff in jars for a week/month and eat it.. Tyler... You need to step your game up and started tasting it 😅😅😅😅
He doesn't even leave things in jars anymore. Sad.
The whole reason I originally subscribed was for random shit in jars.
I use super glue so seldom that any bottle I buy dries up. So I love Dolla Holla's multi-packs of tiny one-time-use tubes.
Tyler the reason the tape was better with the blocks is because there was 2 sides it was pulling against, which is why it was about half the weight of the blocks when you did it with the clamp instead
First
Please make this a series! Friggin awesome idea!
I usually find dollar tree stuff to be decent quality. It just comes in smaller packages. Sometimes it isn't quite as good as name brand stuff, but then again, I don't always need it to be as good, I just need it to be cheap and disposable. I think it also depends what part of the country you're from. It seems like they have different things in different states.
Yes! A TylerTube video while I’m sick. Thanks for making this entertaining content Tyler! :)
This is the best channel. No cursing, non nonsense. Safe for kids and just genuinely entertaining experiments
Tyler to test the stickiness of the duck tape you can apply it backward ( omega form kind if it makes sense) apply it on the plastic glass surface and Throw tennis balls on it, and just note the time each ball takes to fall down
for the duct tape just clamp the glass down to a table and pull up with the pulley that way only the pulling it off the glass is tested.
“After I talked to myself about it…”😂 Absolutely relatable😄💯
To test the adhesive on the tape.. you could take a long strip, fold it in half, but leave a lip out on each side. Then just grab each end and pull. Maybe?
With the zip ties, i believe it has more to do with how you rotate it. The stress point is where the ends zip together moreso than the rest of the tie.
"Super Glue" at Dollar Tree and similar places I's the same formula as Eastman 901. That was the original Super Glue. The breaking strength is over 2000 lbs and the shear is around 450. There are a lot of newer ones are adjusted to drying time slower or faster, there are also ones made for wood, gap filling etc
Love the channel but please put the wooden blocks on a set of scales when you add the glue then your guaranteed the quantities are the same giveing a better result and keep up the great work 👍
Love you tylertube pls never stop the vids we love them all hope you have a great day
‘’This thing has never fallen before I don’t even know how it fell’’ As a long time viewer I have seen that thing fall many times lol and its not the first time the scale shut off
For equipment and safety you can take a length of cord tied into a loop slightly larger than the test sample. That way when you have failures the scale and pullies are not catapulted to the ceiling
Thank you for your channel. Channels like this help make RUclips so good.
I have two dollar tree "command strips" in/around my apartment. One outside ON BRICK & another inside on glass.
The glass one had adhesive that is so strong I'm worried about pulling it off in fear of breaking the glass.
The strip outside is still going strong, surviving all seasonal climates, including extreme heat and humidity as well as tropical storms.
Do not underestimate the dollar tree products.
To test the adhesion of the tapes you could use your plexiglass setup. Tape the whole height of the plastic leaving some extra at the top for the pliers to grip. Grip the top and then test like you would.
Would have to find a way to fix it to prevent the plexiglass from tilting though, maybe a wooden frame that the plexiglass can slide up and down in but prevent the tip
Thin Cyanoacrylate glue isn't for wood. The dollar tree stuff in the green tipped tubes is cyanoacrylate gel and made for wood and more porous materials as it won't get absorbed. Thin Cyanoacrylate is for non porous materials like metal and plastic. Right tool for the right application.
My experience with thoze adhesive hooks is that the glue wears off. I got one (different brand to both of yours) to hang a bathrobe on the back of my door. It worked fine at first, but two days later it fell down. It was a multipack, so I tried another one, but this time left it for 24 hours before applying weight like it said in the instructions. This time it took a week to fall down. Bathrobe well under the rated weight. So, to me, it would be more interesting if you compared time to glue failure at the rated weight rather than just ripping it off.
The type of super glue is cyanocrylate (sigh-an-no-cry-late) and is extremely common in the aquarium community because it is non-toxic, and bonds very powerfully underwater
Your product review videos are great! I've been binge watching them and missing out on sleep. lol
0:33 What glue versus gorilla glue that's not even fair. Haha, hilarious.
The zip ties work the tighter you put it the stronger it is the more lose the weaker 👍🏾great content
You are correct about the over a long period of time thing with the hooks. I've overloaded some and had them randomly fall off over time.
Tyler's eyeballs when he saw how much the hooks held!😂😂😂
How to test the stickiness of tape:
1) place strip of tape sticky-side up on a table
2) take a marble and a fixed incline (ex: a doorstop)
3) measure the distance the marble rolls across the tape after releasing the marble from a fixed height 🎉
I think the 3 pound weight limit for the command strip is over like a long period of time, so if it was anything above that it would slowly fall off
Edit: welp you thought the same thing lol
those adhesive hooks do not hold that well when theyre on a textured drywall surface
The zip ties I think it really depends on where the head (where it connects) is located because if it at a pressure point then it will fail quicker because of how they are built if it on about middle on the side won’t fail as quickly (depending on the quality of materials) because of the force being forced against the actual mechanism while as above it is being pushed out of the holding mechanism
That's true. Also the size of the loop matters too. Bigger loops will fail quicker because they allow for more leverage which creates a greater force when applying weight. He had small changes in the sizes of the loops. The smaller loops held more weight than the bigger loops.
Zip ties are usually used for cable consolidation and not for weight bearing. I personally would use other attachments for weight bearing neds.
Dollar Tree is my go-to for super glue, cheaper than the hardware store or wally world, and better packaging than the Harbor Freight stuff. As long as it's fresh, thin cyanoacrylate is pretty much the same stuff everywhere. The epoxy works fine too but the dual-syringe applicator is annoying at dollar tree size, if it came in the metal toothpaste tubes I'd like it more.
The difference between the zip ties is TIME, I've found the cheap dollar store Zips get hard and brittle after only a few months exposure to light or any type of weather while the name brand Zips last much longer.
The paint on your wall will strip before that command strip fails.
When you stop to look at the pressure number the tension isn't released; meaning there's still pulling action on the wood blocks to break. You have to do a continuous pull within a set number of minutes. I hope you understand.
Tyler channeling LockPickingLawyer there - 'let's test that again to make sure it's not an...anomaly'. call it a fluke yo.
Hook on the top of the tape. Then pull down and the tape will peel off before the tape breaks. That’s how to test the difference in stickiness
For the glue test make the blocks slightly longer and tighten a hose clamp around them above and below paracord, but leaving glue line expose or a piece of square tubing the wood fits tightly in to keep wood from breaking and get better result on glue strength
If you ever need to peel the paint off your wall in one single peel use one of the command adhesive strips but pull straight out instead of down on the tab.
Tyler, to test the stickiness, you could have tried picking up different objects with the tape.
Possibly to help with not breaking the wood so fast is make your blocks bigger. Like 4 inch long 2x4 glue them end to end which small hole in the middle. Less likely for wood to break
Apply tape to plastic facing down and measure force to remove tape, that will test stickiness
The superglues do, sometimes separate, depending on what they are mixed with. If you shake them very well, they will do about the same.
"after i talked to myself, i decided..."
that right there explains so much about this channel
For the duct tape stickiness test:
Take even length pieces of each on the plexiglass with a half inch not attached at the top. Attach a small weight (a couple of ounces should work) to the top of both pieces. Hang vertically. The stickier tape will be the last to peel off.
Don’t ask me why I enjoy these videos but I do 😂😂
Thanks…we crafters have pretty much figured out which products are okay from DT. Their craft supplies save us a lot of money! But there are a few times when it is more economical to buy something elsewhere. Mostly, though, DT craft products, including glues, are a good deal!
Project farm and Tyler should do a video together. April fool's day would be perfect.
Mythbusters did lots of tests of duck tape and came to the conclusion that the fabric (when force is applied in line with the tape) will always fail before the glue does.
I think a good way to test just the stickiness of it though is to do what you did with the plexiglass but mount it horizontally and pull down at a 90 degree angle.
That dollar store super glue is NO JOKE, I don’t know what they put in it but I only buy that stuff lmao XD
The stick on hooks are not rated for maximum single load rate, they are rated for continuous load where the adhesive will stretch and fatigue over time. The surface variables also have a lot to do with the manufacturers recommendations.
I most often use zip ties for things I am not trying to hold any kinda weight with. And always buy them at dollar tree. Best place for lots of things, when you're broke af
