Hi Ellen. Is there a build up of glue down in the chamber? Could that possibly be causing the glue back up?

Here are some causes

Hello Ellen,

It might be because the glue is melting quicker than you can use it....Therefore it is looking for a way out!! Best wishes

Glue sits on for too long with out use. I have had to open mine up to clean it out.

Is it new or older? I had a glue gun that I used for years and it started leaking hot glue (from the front) when I didn't use it. I ended up just buying a new one since they aren't too expensive and I didn't have to deal with that problem anymore.

I would call or contact online the mfg of the glue gun. Sometimes they will replace them for free if there is an issue. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=28ZRkpD3QcM

Sometimes if there's a clog at the nozzle or in the chamber somewhere it will cause the melted glue to leak from other areas.

Hello. Is there a manufactures name on your gun on that you can contact for advice? This sounds particularly dangerous to cause burns I would consider consider replacing if you cannot find any information from the manufacturer

I would contact the manufacturer about this. It may be that the glue is being pushed too hard or melting further in but I’m not a glue gun expert — try the manufacturer.

Hi, Is your glue gun Gunged up with solidified glue inside the nozzle and the only way out is through the back end?

I don't know if it is gunged up. I am going to take it apart and look. Thank you for the help.
