Product Name

MixPac 490ml F-System 10:1 ratio Empty PP Cartridges, includes Pistons and Sealing Cap (PP plastic version for epoxies, urethanes, etc)

Brief Description

This product consists of industrial-grade, empty 490ml dual-component (2-part) cartridges designed for the precise storage and dispensing of 10:1 mix ratio adhesives, sealants, and other compounds. Made from durable polypropylene (PP) plastic, these cartridges are specifically suited for materials like epoxies and urethanes. Each cartridge includes self-venting lip seal pistons and a resealable cap, ensuring a secure seal and clean operation. They are an integral part of the MixPac F-System, requiring compatible dispensing guns and static mixing nozzles for application.

Popular Applications & Uses

- Storing and dispensing 2-part adhesives, epoxies, silicones, and urethanes- Precision metering and mixing of high-viscosity compounds- Bonding, sealing, potting, and gap filling processes in industrial settings- Assembly processes requiring structural 2-component materials- Packaging and application of bulk adhesives in various industries

Industries that Commonly Use It

- General Manufacturing- Chemical Industry- Construction/ Building Services (for bonding, sealing, gap filling)- Automotive Service/Repair- Fabrication (metal, plastic, woodworking)- Flooring Installation & Manufacturing- Countertop Fabrication & Installation- Marine (adhesives and sealants)- Medical Device/Prosthetics (for specialized adhesive applications)- LED/Electronics (for potting and bonding)- Distributers & Resellers (as a core product)- Industrial Supply- Engineering Services- Mold Making/Casting- Packaging Services or Contractors- Transportation/Specialty Vehicle- Aerospace/Defense (for high-performance adhesive applications)

Known backups / known substitutes

- **Other MixPac F-System Ratios:** MixPac F-System cartridges are available in other ratios (e.g., 1:1, 2:1, 4:1) for different adhesive chemistries- **MixPac B-System Cartridges:** Smaller volume cartridges like the 50ml B-System for different applications- **PBT Plastic Cartridges:** For more reactive materials, PBT plastic versions of MixPac cartridges are available- **Other Dual-Component Cartridge Systems:** Alternative brands or proprietary dual-component cartridge systems from other manufacturers.

Comparison Note

The MixPac 490ml F-System 10:1 PP Cartridges stand out for their adherence to the industrial F-System standard, ensuring broad compatibility with MixPac dispensing equipment and static mixers. While other cartridge systems exist, the F-System's robust design and specific 10:1 ratio make it ideal for high-performance structural adhesives like epoxies and urethanes, particularly where precise, high-volume dispensing is required. The PP construction offers good chemical resistance for the specified material types, distinguishing it from PBT versions used for more aggressive chemistries.
