Krazy Glue

Cyanoacrylate adhesive brand

Krazy Glue is a brand name for cyanoacrylate adhesive—a fast-bonding glue that sets in seconds and creates an extremely strong hold on most surfaces.

The intentional misspelling suggests both intensity and slightly unhinged bonding power.

Like other brand names (Kleenex, Band-Aid), it's often used generically for any instant adhesive: I need some Krazy Glue to fix this.
