Xemex X2-C8-8S Ultra-Low Waste Ultra-High 62x Mix Mixing Nozzles (Bell style) for larger cartridges like 200ml, 400ml, 600ml, 1500ml (1:1, 2:1, 4:1, 10:1)

Product Name

Xemex X2-C8-8S Ultra-Low Waste Ultra-High 62x Mix Mixing Nozzles (Bell style) for larger cartridges like 200ml, 400ml, 600ml, 1500ml (1:1, 2:1, 4:1, 10:1)

Brief Description

The Xemex X2-C8-8S is a high-performance, bell-style static mixing nozzle engineered for efficient and thorough mixing of two-part adhesives, sealants, foams, and coatings from larger cartridges (200ml to 1500ml) and meter-mix systems. It features patented Xemex technology that achieves superior mixing with fewer elements, significantly reducing material waste by up to 75% compared to traditional mixers. The nozzle is designed for various mix ratios, including 1:1, 2:1, 4:1, and 10:1, and includes a stepped tip for controlled application and bead size adjustment.

Popular Applications & Uses

- Dispensing two-component adhesives, sealants, and foams- Precision bonding and assembly operations in manufacturing- Repair and maintenance requiring two-part chemical compounds- Grouting and spall repair in concrete applications- Encapsulation and coating processes- Applications requiring consistent and homogenous mixing of reactive materials

Industries that Commonly Use It

- General Manufacturing for assembly and bonding- Automotive Service/Repair for adhesives, sealers, and foams- Construction/Building Services, particularly for concrete repair and sealing- Metal and Plastic Fabrication for bonding various substrates- Aerospace/Defense for high-performance adhesive applications- Medical Device/Prosthetics for precise bonding and assembly- Mold Making/Casting for mixing resins and compounds- Energy sector for sealing and bonding applications- Sign & Display for assembly and structural bonding- Transportation/Specialty Vehicle manufacturing and repair

Special and Unique Features

- Ultra-Low Waste: Minimizes retained volume (as low as 4.3 mL for X2-C8-8S) to reduce material waste by up to 75%.- Ultra-High 62x Mix: Utilizes patented Xemex internal geometry and 8-element insert for superior, more thorough mixing than traditional mixers with 32+ elements.- Bell-Style (C-System) Connection: Compatible with standard bell connectors on larger cartridges and meter-mix dispensing equipment.- Stepped Tip Design: Allows for cutting the tip to adjust the outlet diameter and control bead size and profile.- Wide Ratio Compatibility: Suitable for 1:1, 2:1, 4:1, and 10:1 mix ratios.- Made in the USA: Ensures consistent supply and quality.- Reduced Air Entrapment: Designed to eliminate air bubbling issues.

Key Properties

- Connection Type: Bell (C-System)- Cartridge Compatibility: 200ml, 400ml, 600ml, 1500ml- Mix Ratios: 1:1, 2:1, 4:1, 10:1- Mixing Elements: 8 elements (equivalent to 32+ traditional elements for mix quality)- Waste Volume: Minimized (e.g., 4.3 mL for X2-C8-8S)- Housing Material: Polypropylene- Insert Material: Polyester (or Polyacetal for elements in some mixers)- Tip Design: Stepped- Inner Diameter: 8.7 mm (for X2-C8-8S)

Surface Compatibility

These nozzles are designed to mix two-part chemical compounds that are then applied to various surfaces. The compatibility is primarily determined by the adhesive/sealant being dispensed, which commonly includes:- Epoxies- Methacrylates (MMA)- Urethanes (Polyurethanes)- Silicones- Acrylics- Vinyl Ester

Known backups / known substitutes

- Other bell-style static mixing nozzles from brands like 3M, Sulzer Mixpac (Medmix), and Infinity Bond.- Static mixers with different connection styles (e.g., bayonet, integral nut, F-system, B-system) if the dispensing equipment can be adapted or is different.- Traditional helical or quadro (square) mixing elements, though they may offer less efficient mixing and higher waste volume.

Comparison Note

The Xemex X2-C8-8S stands out from many traditional static mixing nozzles due to its patented internal geometry, which allows for ultra-high mix quality (62x mix) with significantly fewer elements (8 elements vs. 32+). This innovative design results in ultra-low waste, reducing material consumption by up to 75% and offering substantial cost savings. Its compact size also improves operator dexterity and accuracy, and its rigid design helps eliminate automation accuracy problems. While other bell-style mixers exist, Xemex's focus on efficiency, waste reduction, and superior mix quality positions it as a premium, high-performance option, especially for demanding manufacturing environments.
