Product Name
MK H245 Manual 1-component Dispenser 151727
Brief Description
A robust, manual 1-component dispenser designed for the precise and effortless application of high-viscosity sealants, adhesives, pastes, and other assembly fluids from 310mL cartridges. It features a high mechanical advantage for handling tough materials and an anti-drip system for clean application.
Popular Applications & Uses
- Bonding and sealing in construction and building services.- Automotive repair and assembly, including gasketing and sealing.- General industrial assembly and manufacturing tasks.- Field work and repair applications where compressed air is unavailable.- Applying high-viscosity materials like polyurethane and epoxy resins.- Sealing underwater leaks and repairing cracks in pool and spa areas.- Precision application of adhesives and sealants in electronics and medical device manufacturing.
Industries that Commonly Use It
- Aerospace/Defense- Automotive Service/Repair- Cabinet & Woodworking- Construction/ Building Services- General Manufacturing- Industrial Supply- LED/Electronics- Medical Device/ Prosthetics- Metal Fabrication- Plastic Fabrication- Pool/Spa/Plumbing- Prosumer- Sign & Display
Special and Unique Features
- U-Opening with Cartridge Snap Fit for easy loading and secure fit.- Anti-Drip mechanism to prevent material leakage and ensure clean application.- Trigger Integrated Brake Release for precise control and immediate stop of material flow.- Life Prolonging Adjustment Screw for extended tool lifespan and consistent performance.- High Mechanical Advantage Ratio (26:1) for effortless dispensing of high-viscosity materials.- Lightweight design (0.8kg / 1.7lbs) for reduced operator fatigue during prolonged use.- Reinforced Nylon construction for durability and strength.
Key Properties
- Cartridge Capacity: 310 mL / 5 oz- Mechanical Advantage Ratio: 26:1- Weight: 0.8 kg / 1.7 lbs- Maximum Force: 5 kN / 1011 lbf (~500 kg)- Viscosity Compatibility: High viscosity materials- Handle Material: Reinforced Nylon- Frame Material: Reinforced Nylon- Frame Length: 250 mm / 8 in
Surface Compatibility
This dispenser is compatible with various surfaces indirectly, as its function is to apply adhesives and sealants. The compatibility depends on the specific adhesive or sealant being dispensed. Generally, it can be used for materials applied to:- Metals- Plastics- Wood- Concrete- Ceramics- Glass- Composites
Known backups / known substitutes
- Other manual 1-component dispensers with different mechanical advantage ratios or cartridge capacities.- Pneumatic 1-component dispensers for higher volume or less operator fatigue.- Battery-powered dispensers for portability and consistent force.- Automated dispensing systems for high-volume production lines.- Smaller syringe guns for very precise or low-volume applications.
Comparison Note
The MK H245 stands out as a heavy-duty manual dispenser with a high mechanical advantage (26:1) and robust reinforced nylon construction, making it particularly suitable for high-viscosity materials like polyurethanes and epoxy resins that might be challenging for standard caulk guns. While pneumatic and automated systems offer higher speed and reduced fatigue for large-scale production, the H245 provides portability, cost-effectiveness, and precise control for field work, repair applications, and situations where compressed air or electricity is not readily available. Its anti-drip feature and integrated brake release contribute to cleaner and more accurate application compared to basic manual dispensers.
