Beacon® Fabri-Tac® is a premium-quality fabric adhesive trusted by fashion designers, costume makers, crafters, and textile artists for decades. Designed specifically for fabric applications, this fast-grabbing adhesive creates strong, flexible bonds without the need for sewing, ironing, or hot glue guns.
Unlike many liquid adhesives, Fabri-Tac won't soak through most fabrics, helping maintain a clean, professional appearance. Its crystal-clear drying formula makes it ideal for attaching trims, lace, embellishments, appliqués, and decorative accents while remaining virtually invisible once cured.
Perfect for costume construction, dancewear, wedding projects, home décor, quick hems, and everyday clothing repairs, Fabri-Tac offers a reliable, machine-washable bond that holds up to regular use.
