Known backups / known substitutes

- Other MixPac F-System nozzles with varying element counts or diameters (e.g., MFHX 08-24T, MFHX 08-32T, MFHX 10-18T).- MixPac MFH series nozzles, which are also F-System compatible but typically for 1:1 and 2:1 ratios.- MixPac Quadro™ (MFQ/MFQX) series mixers, offering enhanced mixing efficiency in a shorter length for various ratios.- Static mixing nozzles from other manufacturers, such as 3M, designed for two-component adhesives (cross-compatibility should be verified).

Comparison Note

The MixPac MFHX 08-18T is a Helix-style static mixer, characterized by its traditional spiral mixing elements. While highly effective, advanced designs like the MixPac Quadro™ mixers (e.g., MFQ series) are recognized for providing superior mixing efficiency, a shorter overall length, and a lower pressure drop due to their unique square elements. The MFHX 08-18T is specifically tailored for the F-System with 4:1 and 10:1 ratios, ensuring a precise and reliable mix for these particular two-part adhesive chemistries. Its stepped tip further enhances versatility in dispensing applications.
