What products require glue for assembly?

A very wide range of consumer and industrial products rely on adhesives during their assembly, and for more than just gluing parts together. In addition to joining separate pieces of an assembly, industrial glues are also used to fill void spaces, encapsulate sensitive parts, isolate electrical circuits, seal joints, form protective coatings and films, and even serve as flexible, absorptive cushions between components. Products that need any of these features while also minimizing weight, complexity and cost utilize glue at some point during assembly.
