Choosing between a single 1-fluid-ounce tube and a six-pack of 3.7-ounce tubes of E6000 industrial-strength adhesive comes down to one practical question: how much gluing are you planning to do? Both are multi-purpose permanent-bond glues, but the small tube and the bulk pack aim at different routines.
Quick verdict: If you need a dab of glue for a small repair or a single craft session, the Eclectic E6000 Adhesive Glue 1 fl. oz at $5.79 is the easier buy. If you regularly bond rhinestones, flat back pearls, leather, glass, plastic, metal, or other surfaces, the E6000 Industrial Strength Glue 3.7 oz six-pack at $46.96 gives you 22.2 oz of adhesive to work with.
| Spec | Eclectic E6000 Adhesive Glue 1 fl. oz | E6000 Industrial Strength Glue 3.7 oz 6-pack |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $5.79 | $46.96 |
| Total adhesive | 1 fl. oz | 22.2 fl. oz (six tubes) |
| Ideal use | Small, occasional projects | Frequent crafting and multi-material bonding |
Where the 1 fl. oz tube wins:
- It costs $41.17 less upfront, which is why it makes sense when you only need glue for a quick fix.
- The smaller size is easier to control for precise dabs, and its portability is handy for storing in a tool bag or desk drawer.
Where the 3.7 oz 6-pack wins:
- The total 22.2 oz of adhesive brings the per-ounce price down to roughly $2.12, compared with $5.79 per ounce for the single tube.
- The multi-pack means you can keep tubes in different workspaces, and the clear adhesive is formulated to be flexible, photo safe, washer/dryer safe, and suited to leather, glass, plastic, metal, and rhinestone work.
Now let's look at each option in more detail.

The single-ounce tube is the lower-priced way to experience E6000's industrial-strength bonding. It's listed as a multi-purpose glue, and the precision tip helps you squeeze out only as much as you need for tasks like nail-art rhinestone design, jewelry repair, or securing small parts. For $5.79, you get a permanent bond with a compact, easy-to-store footprint. The trade-off is that one fluid ounce runs out quickly on larger projects; if you're covering a big surface or doing multiple sessions, you'll likely need another tube.
E6000 Industrial Strength Glue Adhesive Permanent Bond Multi Purpose Choose Size
The six-pack of 3.7-ounce tubes is the bulk option for people who glue often. At $46.96, you get 22.2 ounces of total adhesive, which makes the per-ounce price noticeably lower than the single tube. The durable clear formula can handle leather, glass, plastic, metal, and many other surfaces, and it can be used with rhinestones and flat back pearls. The permanent, flexible, photo-safe bond is an attractive feature for crafters. The obvious limitation is the upfront cost: $46.96 is a lot to spend if you only need a few dots of glue, and the pack takes up more storage space.
Final choice by use case
Pick the 1 fl. oz tube when your project is small, occasional, or a cost-conscious single fix. Pick the 3.7 oz six-pack when you know you'll be gluing again soon-and again after that. If you're still unsure, consider the size of your task: one repair, go small; many projects, go bulk.
