Special and Unique Features
- **Durable Construction:** Features a 304 stainless steel cannula for durability and corrosion resistance.- **Precision Engineering:** Burr-free and electro-polished shaft ensures unobstructed and consistent material flow.- **Luer Lock Hub:** Polypropylene double-helix threaded Luer Lock hub provides a secure, leak-free connection to syringe barrels, valves, or automated systems.- **Color-Coded:** Yellow hub indicates 20-gauge, adhering to international color-coding standards for easy identification.- **Blunt Tip:** Non-sharp blunt end prevents accidental punctures and protects sensitive substrates.- **UV-Bonded Cannula:** The stainless steel cannula is UV-bonded to the polypropylene hub for exceptional strength.- **Industrial Grade Safe:** Certified silicone-free, chloride-free, and safe for use up to 100 psi.
Key Properties
- **Material:** 304 Stainless Steel cannula, Polypropylene (PP) Luer Lock hub.- **Gauge:** 20-Gauge (Yellow color-coded).- **Length:** 1-inch (25.4 mm).- **Inside Diameter (ID):** 0.025" (0.635 mm).- **Outside Diameter (OD):** 0.036" (0.914 mm).- **Connection Type:** Push-On & Luer-Lock (double-helix threaded).- **Chemical Compatibility:** Increased chemical compatibility over plastic-only tips due to stainless steel.- **Pressure Rating:** Industrial grade safe for use to 100 psi.
Surface Compatibility
- Compatible with a wide range of substrates onto which fluids are dispensed, including sensitive electronic components, metals, plastics, and various assembly materials.- The blunt tip design protects delicate surfaces from damage.- The stainless steel cannula ensures contamination-free application, preventing interaction with sensitive substrates.
Known backups / known substitutes
- **Plastic Dispensing Tips:** More affordable and flexible, suitable for delicate materials, but less durable and chemically resistant.- **Tapered Dispensing Tips:** Often made of polyethylene, good for medium to high viscosity fluids, including UV-curable materials, and promote flow.- **PTFE-Lined Dispensing Tips:** Ideal for low-viscosity fluids, resistant to clogging, especially with gel cyanoacrylates, anaerobics, and solvents.- **Flexible Dispensing Tips:** Made from soft, flexible materials (e.g., polypropylene/polyethylene) for hard-to-reach areas or delicate substrates.- **Angled Dispensing Tips:** For reaching confined or difficult areas.- **Brush Dispensing Tips:** For spreading, coating, or dabbing low-viscosity liquids.- **Oval Dispensing Tips:** For flat, consistent beads of high-viscosity materials.- **Different Gauge Tips:** Other gauges (e.g., 14-gauge for higher flow, 25-gauge for finer lines) depending on fluid viscosity and desired deposit size.
Comparison Note
- These steel dispensing tips offer superior durability, chemical resistance, and a higher temperature range compared to plastic alternatives, making them suitable for harsh chemicals and demanding industrial environments.- The 20-gauge size provides a balance between flow rate and precision, suitable for a wide range of medium-to-thin viscosity fluids.- Their robust construction and Luer Lock fitting ensure reliable performance and compatibility with standard dispensing systems, offering a longer lifespan than many single-use plastic options.
