Product Name
Jensen Industrial Dispensing Tips (Push-On & Luer-Lock) Family - Steel 1/2-Inch Red 24-Gauge
Brief Description
This product is a precision industrial dispensing tip, featuring a durable 304 stainless steel cannula and a polypropylene Luer-Lock hub. It is designed for controlled and accurate application of various industrial fluids, including adhesives, sealants, and lubricants. The 24-gauge, 1/2-inch length, and red color-coding indicate its suitability for fine, precise dispensing tasks.
Popular Applications & Uses
- Precision dispensing of adhesives, glues, epoxies, and resins.- Controlled application of sealants, silicones, and gels.- Accurate dispensing of solvents, oils, inks, and other liquid substances.- Coating, bonding, filling, and potting in assembly processes.- Integration into manual syringes, automated dispensing systems, and dosing valves.
Industries that Commonly Use It
- Aerospace/Defense for critical bonding and sealing applications.- Automotive Service/Repair for applying lubricants, sealants, and adhesives.- Chemical Industry for precise handling and dispensing of various chemicals.- Construction/Building Services for controlled application of sealants and adhesives.- General Manufacturing for a wide range of assembly, bonding, and fluid application tasks.- LED/Electronics manufacturing for coating, encapsulating, and bonding small components.- Medical Device/Prosthetics manufacturing for precise fluid application in non-sterile industrial processes.- Metal Fabrication for applying lubricants, coolants, or adhesives during assembly.- Packaging Services or Contractor for sealing and adhesive application in packaging lines.
Special and Unique Features
- Durable 304 stainless steel cannula ensures longevity, rigidity, and resistance to corrosion and harsh chemicals.- Luer-Lock and Push-On compatibility provides a secure, leak-free connection to syringe barrels, cartridges, and dispensing valves.- 24-gauge (red color-coded) inner diameter allows for fine, precise dispensing of low to medium viscosity fluids.- Burr-free and polished stainless steel construction ensures smooth, consistent fluid flow and prevents clogging.- Industrial grade and silicone-free, suitable for sensitive manufacturing environments.- 1/2-inch length offers versatility for various application depths and access requirements.
Key Properties
- Material: 304 Stainless Steel cannula, Polypropylene (PP) Luer Lock hub.- Gauge: 24 Gauge (Red color-coded).- Length: 1/2-inch.- Connection Type: Luer-Lock and Push-On.- Precision: Engineered for high accuracy and consistent fluid deposits.- Durability: High resistance to wear, corrosion, and temperature fluctuations.- Flow: Smooth, unobstructed flow path due to burr-free design.
Surface Compatibility
The dispensing tip itself is compatible with standard Luer-Lock and Push-On dispensing equipment, including syringe barrels, dosing valves, and automated dispensing systems. The steel cannula is suitable for dispensing a wide array of industrial fluids onto various substrates such as metals, plastics, ceramics, and composites, commonly found in manufacturing and assembly processes.
Known backups / known substitutes
- **Other Materials:** Plastic dispensing tips (e.g., polypropylene, PTFE-lined) for cost-effectiveness or specific chemical compatibilities.- **Different Gauges:** Tips with larger gauges (e.g., 12-gauge) for higher flow rates of viscous materials, or finer gauges (e.g., 34-gauge) for micro-deposits.- **Different Lengths:** Shorter or longer tips to suit specific application depths or reach requirements.- **Alternative Geometries:** Tapered tips for high-viscosity fluids, angled tips for hard-to-reach areas, brush tips for spreading, or oval tips for flat bead application.- **Manual Application:** Brushes, rollers, or spatulas for less precise or larger area applications.
Comparison Note
Jensen Industrial Steel Dispensing Tips offer significant advantages over their plastic counterparts, particularly in demanding industrial environments. Their steel construction provides superior durability, chemical resistance, and temperature stability, making them ideal for use with aggressive fluids, high-viscosity materials, or in applications requiring consistent performance under pressure. While plastic tips may be more economical and flexible, steel tips ensure greater precision, longer lifespan, and reduced risk of contamination or wear, especially crucial for automated and high-volume production lines.
