Product Name
MixPac CK400-10 (114407) Conversion Kit 10:1 Ratio for Manual DM400 and Pneumatic DP400 Dispensers
Brief Description
The MixPac CK400-10 (114407) is a conversion kit designed to retrofit existing MixPac DM400 manual and DP400 pneumatic 400ml two-component adhesive dispensers. It specifically converts these dispensers to a 10:1 mixing ratio, enabling them to accurately dispense 490ml 2-part cartridges that require this particular ratio. This kit enhances the versatility of existing dispensing equipment, allowing users to work with a broader range of two-part adhesives.
Popular Applications & Uses
- Dispensing 2-part epoxies, polyurethanes, silicones, and other adhesives that require a 10:1 mix ratio.- Used for various bonding, sealing, potting, and encapsulation tasks in assembly, manufacturing, and repair operations.- Ideal for applications demanding precise metering of high-viscosity, two-component compounds.- Retrofitting existing DM400 and DP400 series dispensers to expand their functional capabilities without purchasing new equipment.
Industries that Commonly Use It
- General Manufacturing- Automotive Service/Repair- Construction/Building Services- Metal Fabrication- Plastic Fabrication- Cabinet & Woodworking- Marine- Aerospace/Defense- Medical Device/ Prosthetics- LED/Electronics- Distributers & Resellers- Industrial Supply- Engineering Services- Mold Making/ Casting- Countertop- Flooring Installer or Manufacturer- Sign & Display- Furniture
Special and Unique Features
- Converts both manual (DM400) and pneumatic (DP400) 400ml MixPac dispensers.- Specifically enables the dispensing of 490ml 2-part cartridges with a 10:1 mixing ratio.- Features a simple design that allows for quick removal of existing components and fitting of the alternative ratio version.- Extends the utility and operational lifespan of current adhesive dispensing equipment.- Ensures the continued high precision and accuracy characteristic of MixPac dispensers for consistent adhesive application.
Key Properties
- **Ratio:** Converts dispensers to a 10:1 mixing ratio.- **Compatibility:** Specifically designed for MixPac DM400 manual and DP400 pneumatic 400ml series dispensers.- **Cartridge Size:** Accommodates 490ml 2-part cartridges.- **Material:** Components are typically constructed from durable, wear-resistant materials such as cast aluminum and reinforced nylon, consistent with the robust build of the dispensers they convert.- **Function:** Facilitates consistent and precise metering of two-component adhesives.
Surface Compatibility
The MixPac CK400-10 conversion kit itself does not have surface compatibility, as it is an accessory for an adhesive dispenser. However, the two-component adhesives it enables dispensing are compatible with a broad spectrum of materials, including:- Metals- Plastics- Composites- Wood- Ceramics- Glass- Concrete- Stone (e.g., granite, quartz, porcelain, Corian®)
Known backups / known substitutes
- Other ratio conversion kits (e.g., 1:1, 2:1, 4:1) for MixPac DM400/DP400 dispensers.- Newer generation MixPac dispensers, such as the DM2X and DP2X series, which may offer multi-ratio capabilities or come pre-configured for a 10:1 ratio.- Complete 10:1 ratio adhesive dispensers from alternative brands, such as 3M™ EPX™ applicators.- Universal or brand-specific manual or pneumatic cartridge guns like the Infinity Bond Versa Air or Versa Manual.
Comparison Note
The MixPac CK400-10 conversion kit provides a practical and cost-effective solution for users who already own MixPac DM400 manual or DP400 pneumatic dispensers and need to expand their functionality to include 10:1 ratio adhesives. Instead of investing in an entirely new dispensing gun, this kit allows for a direct upgrade, offering flexibility and extending the utility of existing equipment. While newer MixPac dispenser models (e.g., DM2X/DP2X series) are available, this specific kit serves as a targeted solution for the legacy 400 series, ensuring continued compatibility and performance for specific 10:1 adhesive requirements.
