Product Name
DEVCON 14285 Mark V 1-1 Mix Nozzle for 50ml - Mix Nozzle
Brief Description
The DEVCON 14285 Mark V 1-1 Mix Nozzle is a disposable static mixing nozzle specifically designed for the precise and automatic blending of two-part adhesives, epoxies, methacrylates, and urethanes from 50ml cartridges. It ensures a consistent 1:1 mix ratio, which is crucial for proper curing and optimal bond strength of the dispensed material.
Popular Applications & Uses
- Bonding and sealing various materials- General repairs and assembly operations- Chemical anchoring for threaded rods or reinforcements in construction- Resin crafts and DIY projects- Woodworking applications with epoxy- Concrete repair- Carbon fiber work- Sealing applications in marine environments, such as leaky boats- Potting and encapsulation of electronic components
Industries that Commonly Use It
- Aerospace/Defense- Automotive Service/Repair- Cabinet & Woodworking- Chemical Industry- Construction/Building Services- Electrical Services or Products (Electronics)- Energy (Oil & Gas)- Engineering Services- Fabrication- General Manufacturing- Industrial Supply- LED/Electronics- Marine- Medical Device/Prosthetics (Healthcare)- Metal Fabrication- Mold Making/Casting- Plastic Fabrication- Prosumer- Sign & Display- Transportation/Specialty Vehicle
Special and Unique Features
- **Static Mixing Technology:** Automatically and thoroughly mixes adhesive components as they pass through the nozzle, eliminating the need for manual stirring.- **Ensures Proper Blending:** Guarantees a consistent and homogeneous mix for optimal curing and bond strength.- **Disposable Design:** Allows for easy cleanup and reduces mess, as the nozzle is discarded after use.- **Easy to Load:** Designed for quick and straightforward attachment to compatible Devcon Mark V dispensing guns.- **Spiral Interior Elements:** Features multiple internal mixing elements (typically 20) to achieve effective blending.- **Versatile Ratio Compatibility:** Primarily for 1:1 mix ratios, but also compatible with 2:1 and 10:1 adhesives when used with the appropriate dispensing gun.
Key Properties
- **Type:** Static Mix Nozzle- **Mixing Ratio:** Designed for 1:1, also compatible with 2:1 and 10:1 depending on the adhesive and dispensing gun- **Volume Compatibility:** Specifically for 50ml dual-barrel cartridges- **Material:** Clear plastic- **Number of Mixing Elements:** Typically 20- **Outer Diameter:** Approximately 0.25 inches (6.35 mm)- **Overall Length:** Approximately 6 inches (15.24 cm)- **For Use With:** Devcon Mark 5™ Manual Gun (models 14280 and 74001) and compatible pneumatic dispensing systems
Surface Compatibility
The nozzle itself does not have surface compatibility; rather, it dispenses two-part adhesives that are compatible with a wide range of substrates, including:- Metals- Thermoplastics and thermoset composites- Wood- Glass- Concrete- Carbon fiber- Various other materials, depending on the specific adhesive formulation being dispensed
Known backups / known substitutes
- Other brands of static mixing nozzles designed for 50ml dual-barrel cartridges, such as those from Sulzer, Plexus, Plastiform, PC-Super Epoxy, and various generic epoxy mixer tips- Alternative mixing element designs, such as box-section mixers, which may offer different mixing efficiencies- Manual mixing of two-part adhesives, though this method is generally less efficient, can lead to more material waste, and carries a higher risk of uneven mixing and inconsistent results
Comparison Note
The Devcon 14285 Mark V mix nozzle offers an efficient and economical method for dispensing and applying two-part adhesives, significantly reducing guesswork and excessive waste often associated with manual mixing. Its static mixing elements are engineered to ensure a consistent and homogeneous blend, which is critical for achieving optimal adhesive performance and reliable curing. Compared to traditional manual mixing, this nozzle provides substantial time savings and minimizes the potential for air bubbles or uneven curing within the adhesive. Furthermore, these Devcon nozzles are specifically designed to integrate seamlessly with Devcon Mark V dispensing systems, ensuring optimal compatibility and performance for professional and industrial applications.
