Product Name
MixPac MBQ 05-16L Gray-Inlet Mixing Nozzle - Green 3.5-Inch 16-Element Square Quad-for 50ml Gray-Cap Cartridge (1:1 & 2:1 ratio)
Brief Description
This is a disposable static mixing nozzle designed for the precise and consistent mixing of two-component adhesives, sealants, and resins. It features a square (Quadro) mixing element design and is specifically compatible with 50ml MixPac B-System cartridges with 1:1 and 2:1 mix ratios.
Popular Applications & Uses
- Bonding and sealing in various assembly processes.- Dispensing two-component epoxy, polyurethane, silicone, acrylic, and methacrylate adhesives.- Potting and encapsulating electronic components.- Seam sealing in automotive and industrial applications.- Fiberglass and composite applications using polyester resins.- Concrete repair and general construction bonding.
Industries that Commonly Use It
- Aerospace/Defense- Automotive Service/Repair- Chemical Industry- Construction/ Building Services- Distributers & Resellers- Energy (e.g., wind turbine assembly)- Fabrication- General Manufacturing- Industrial Supply- LED/Electronics- Mold Making/ Casting- Transportation/ Specialty Vehicle
Special and Unique Features
- Quadro (Square) Mixing Elements: Provides superior and efficient mixing in a shorter nozzle length, allowing for closer application to the bonding surface.- Interlock/Twist and Lock Connection: Ensures a secure and tool-free attachment to compatible MixPac B-System 50ml cartridges.- Luer Slip Tip Outlet: Allows for the attachment of various dispensing tips or needles for precision and specialty dispensing.- Disposable Design: Eliminates the need for cleaning and reduces contact with hazardous materials.- Consistent and Repeatable Mixing: Ensures a homogenous blend of two-component materials, critical for achieving desired adhesive properties.
Key Properties
- Mix Ratio Compatibility: Designed for 1:1 and 2:1 ratio two-component materials.- Number of Elements: 16 mixing elements for thorough blending.- Inner Diameter: Approximately 5.3 mm (0.209 inches).- Length: Approximately 90.7 mm (3.571 inches).- Housing Material: Typically Polypropylene (PP).- Element Material: Acetalcopolymere.- Waste Volume: Approximately 1.88 ml.- Color: Green elements, gray inlet.
Surface Compatibility
This nozzle itself does not directly contact the bonding surface for compatibility. Its compatibility is with the two-component adhesives, sealants, and resins it dispenses. These materials, once mixed, can be applied to a wide range of surfaces including:- Metals- Plastics- Composites- Concrete- Wood- Masonry- Glass- Ceramics
Known backups / known substitutes
- Other MixPac MBQ series nozzles with different element counts or lengths (e.g., MBQ 05-24L).- Other MixPac static mixers like MAQ, MAH, ME, MFQ, MKH, MKHX, MP series, depending on the cartridge system and application.- Static mixing nozzles from other manufacturers designed for 50ml two-component cartridges with similar inlet connections (e.g., bayonet or twist-lock) and mix ratios.- Helical mixing elements (though Quadro is noted for superior mixing in shorter length).
Comparison Note
The MixPac MBQ 05-16L stands out due to its "Quadro" (square) mixing element design, which is known for providing superior mixing performance in a more compact length compared to traditional helical mixers. This allows for closer application to the substrate and potentially less material waste. Its secure interlock connection and Luer Slip Tip offer versatility and precision for various dispensing needs with 50ml B-System cartridges.
