MedMix MBQ 05-24L Gray-Inlet Mixing Nozzle - Green 4.5-inch 24-Element Square Quad-for 50ml Gray-Cap Cartridges (1:1 & 2:1 ratio)

Product Name

MedMix MBQ 05-24L Gray-Inlet Mixing Nozzle - Green 4.5-inch 24-Element Square Quad-for 50ml Gray-Cap Cartridges (1:1 & 2:1 ratio)

Brief Description

The MedMix MBQ 05-24L is a high-performance static mixing nozzle, formerly known as Sulzer Mixpac, specifically designed for the precise and homogeneous mixing of two-component adhesives, sealants, and other reactive materials. It is compatible with 50ml gray-cap cartridges (B-system and S-system) with 1:1 and 2:1 mixing ratios. This disposable nozzle features a green 4.5-inch body containing 24 square quad mixing elements.

Popular Applications & Uses

This nozzle is widely used for bonding, sealing, potting, encapsulating, gap filling, and structural repair applications. It effectively dispenses two-part epoxies, polyurethanes, silicones, acrylics, methacrylates, and polyester resins. Specific uses include assembly operations in various manufacturing sectors, concrete repair, and precise dosing in electronics and medical fields.

Industries that Commonly Use It

Industries frequently utilizing this mixing nozzle include Aerospace/Defense, Automotive Service/Repair, Construction/Building Services, General Manufacturing, Electrical Services or Products (for electronics and communications), Medical Device/Prosthetics, Metal Fabrication, Mold Making/Casting, Plastic Fabrication, Cabinet & Woodworking, Countertop, and Sign & Display. It is also supplied by Distributers & Resellers and Industrial Supply companies, and specified by Engineering Services.

Special and Unique Features

Key features include its static mixing technology, 24-element square quad design for superior mixing efficiency, and specific compatibility with 50ml gray-cap (B-system/S-system) cartridges at 1:1 and 2:1 ratios. The green body and gray inlet facilitate easy identification, and its Luer Lock tip allows for the attachment of precision dispensing needles and tips. It also offers a simple interlock or twist-lock mounting method for secure attachment to cartridges.

Key Properties

The nozzle ensures efficient, consistent, and homogeneous mixing of two-component materials, which is crucial for achieving proper cure and performance. Being disposable, it significantly reduces cleanup time and prevents cross-contamination, and can even double as a temporary storage cap for cartridges.

Surface Compatibility

This nozzle facilitates the application of two-component materials that are compatible with a wide range of substrates. These include metals, various plastics, composites, wood, concrete, and ceramics, depending on the specific adhesive or sealant being dispensed.

Known backups / known substitutes

Comparable static mixing nozzles from other manufacturers such as 3M, Nordson EFD, Loctite, or other MedMix/Sulzer Mixpac series (e.g., MAH, MFHX, MAQ) can serve as substitutes. Substitutes must match the cartridge interface (50ml, gray-cap/B-system/S-system, 1:1/2:1 ratio) and provide a similar number and type of mixing elements for equivalent performance.

Comparison Note

The MedMix MBQ 05-24L stands out due to its 24 square quad mixing elements, which are known for providing excellent mixing results, particularly for higher viscosity materials or when thorough blending is critical, often outperforming simpler spiral or helical designs in efficiency for its length. Its specific design for 50ml gray-cap cartridges (B-system/S-system) ensures broad compatibility within a widely adopted industrial dispensing system.
