Nozzles, Tips and Needles
For 99% of applications with Fluid and Pasty products, you use the standard nozzle. Clip-on tips, needle nozzles, and Luer Lock nozzles work only with Fluid products in small or deep cavities, while the long nozzle fits 400 ml XL cartridges.
The Standard Nozzle
The standard nozzle works with both Fluid and Pasty products. Inside, small vanes mix the two components evenly as they pass through.
This nozzle is for single use only, because the product left inside hardens and blocks the vanes. Each box of cartridges comes with nozzles and tips.
| Type | Outlet | Length | Products | Use |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard nozzle | Wide | Standard | Fluid and Pasty | 99% of applications |
| Standard nozzle with tip | Fine | Standard | Fluid only | Internal cavities, fewer bubbles |
| Needle nozzle | 0.9 mm | 25 mm | Fluid only, mainly F20 | Very small diameters |
| Luer Lock nozzle | 0.9, 1.5 or 1.8 mm outside, depending on the needle | 38, 100 or 200 mm | Fluid only, mainly F20 | Deep cavities, very narrow passages |
| Long nozzle | Wide | Long | XL products | 400 ml cartridges |
The Tip
A tip is a small end that clips onto the nozzle. It gives a more precise injection in an internal cavity and helps avoid bubbles.
Use it with Fluid products only. With a Pasty product, the flow would be too low and it would take too much pressure.
You can use a tip again. Unclip it by twisting the lower part slightly, without forcing on the thin end.
Needle and Luer Lock Nozzles
The needle nozzle ends in a needle 0.9 mm in diameter and 25 mm long, for very small diameters. For deep cavities and very narrow passages, the Luer Lock nozzle takes three interchangeable needles: 38 mm long (0.9 mm outside diameter), 100 mm (1.5 mm) and 200 mm (1.8 mm). Both work with Fluid products only, mainly F20.
The Long Nozzle
The long nozzle is the one for 400 ml cartridges of XL products.
