Ritter ACF Helix mixing nozzle 18 Element, 7.3 Inches Long, 8MM ID for 200ml or 400ml ACF cartridge ratios 1:1 or 2:1 (13300- 2001)

Product Name

Ritter ACF Helix mixing nozzle 18 Element, 7.3 Inches Long, 8MM ID for 200ml or 400ml ACF cartridge ratios 1:1 or 2:1 (13300- 2001)

Brief Description

This is a high-performance static mixing nozzle specifically designed for the Ritter ACF (Air-free, Cross-contamination-free) cartridge system. It features an 18-element Helix design to ensure thorough and homogeneous mixing of two-component adhesives and sealants. The nozzle is compatible with 200ml or 400ml ACF cartridges and supports 1:1 or 2:1 mixing ratios.

Popular Applications & Uses

- Bonding and sealing in various manufacturing and assembly processes.- Potting and encapsulation of electronic components.- Structural bonding applications requiring precise mixing.- Dispensing a wide range of two-part materials including epoxies, urethanes, silicones, and acrylics.

Industries that Commonly Use It

- Aerospace/Defense- Automotive Service/Repair- Chemical Industry- Construction/ Building Services- General Manufacturing- LED/Electronics (for general bonding and sealing)- Medical Device/ Prosthetics- Metal Fabrication- Plastic Fabrication- Transportation/ Specialty Vehicle- Industrial Supply- Distributers & Resellers

Special and Unique Features

- 18-element Helix design for efficient and consistent mixing of two-component materials.- Engineered for Ritter ACF (Air-free, Cross-contamination-free) cartridge system, preventing cross-contamination and ensuring air-free dispensing.- Compatible with 200ml or 400ml ACF cartridges.- Supports common mixing ratios of 1:1 or 2:1.- Features an 8mm inner diameter (ID) and is approximately 7.3 inches (185.4mm) long.- Designed for direct connection to ACF cartridges without the need for a union nut, simplifying installation.

Key Properties

- Ensures consistent and homogeneous mixing of two-component adhesives and sealants.- Reduces material waste and can improve bond strength by ensuring proper chemical reaction.- Disposable nature offers convenience and prevents curing issues within the nozzle.- Minimizes dead space and the required extrusion force for dispensing (characteristic of Helix/ORBIS designs).- Facilitates precise and controlled dispensing of mixed materials.

Surface Compatibility

The Ritter ACF Helix mixing nozzle itself does not have surface compatibility. Instead, it is designed to facilitate the precise mixing and application of two-component adhesives and sealants. The compatibility with various surfaces (e.g., metals, plastics, composites, glass, ceramics) depends entirely on the specific adhesive or sealant being dispensed through the nozzle.

Known backups / known substitutes

- Other brands of static mixing nozzles with similar element counts, lengths, and diameters (e.g., Sulzer Mixpac, Infinity Bond).- Static mixers featuring different internal element designs such as Quadro, Kenics, or Tab mixers, which may be optimized for varying viscosities.- Nozzles with different lengths, diameters, or element configurations to fine-tune performance for specific material viscosities and cure times.- Dynamic mixing nozzles, typically used for very high viscosity or difficult-to-mix materials, though these are generally more complex and costly.

Comparison Note

The Ritter ACF Helix mixing nozzle, with its 18-element Helix design, is engineered for superior mixing efficiency and consistency for two-component adhesives and sealants. Its dedicated compatibility with the Ritter ACF cartridge system provides a distinct advantage by ensuring air-free and cross-contamination-free dispensing, which is critical for maintaining material integrity and performance. This system offers enhanced precision and reliability compared to generic mixing nozzles or manual mixing methods.
