Product Name
Ritter 50ml Mixing Nozzle Round (helix) 17-element 4.4 inch for B-System Cartridges (18001-0041)
Brief Description
This is a high-efficiency, low-waste, universal static mixing nozzle designed for the thorough and consistent blending of two-component adhesives, sealants, and resins. It features a round (helix) design with 17 mixing elements and is specifically compatible with standard 50ml B-System and S-System 1:1 and 2:1 ratio cartridges.
Popular Applications & Uses
- Mixing two-component epoxy adhesives, polyurethane adhesives and sealants, methyl methacrylate (MMA) adhesives, polyester resins, silicone sealants, and acrylic adhesives.- Structural bonding applications.- Seam sealing in automotive and industrial applications.- Potting and encapsulating resins for electronics.- Composite manufacturing.- Construction adhesives.- Precise metering and application of two-part compounds.
Industries that Commonly Use It
- Aerospace/Defense- Automotive Service/Repair- Construction/ Building Services- Electrical Services or Products (Electronics)- Fabrication- General Manufacturing- Medical Device/ Prosthetics- Metal Fabrication- Mold Making/ Casting- Plastic Fabrication- Prosumer- Sign & Display- Special Effects/ Scenic Design- Transportation/ Specialty Vehicle
Special and Unique Features
- Round (helix) design with 17 mixing elements for efficient and homogeneous mixing.- High-efficiency, low-waste design.- Specifically designed for B-System and S-System 50ml 1:1 & 2:1 ratio cartridges.- Prevents cross-contamination of components before mixing.- Ensures consistent and reproducible adhesive processes.- Easy attachment with a twist-cap nozzle attachment for a leak-free connection.- Disposable nature for convenience and to prevent curing inside the nozzle.
Key Properties
- Length: 4.4 inches (112.5 mm).- Number of mixing elements: 17.- Outer Ø Outlet: 1.8 mm.- Material: High-grade polypropylene for the outer body and elements.- Color: Gray/white elements.- Industrial grade and silicone-free.- Designed for 1:1 and 2:1 mix ratios.- Ensures precise metering and consistent mix ratio.
Surface Compatibility
- Compatible with a wide range of two-component materials including epoxies, polyurethanes, silicones, acrylics, MMA adhesives, and polyester resins.- Designed for use with B-System and S-System 50ml cartridges, which are often made of polypropylene (PP), PBT, or Nylon PA for chemical compatibility.
Known backups / known substitutes
- Other static mixing nozzles designed for 50ml B-System cartridges from manufacturers like Sulzer Mixpac (e.g., MB/MBH series).- Quadro static mixing nozzles (different internal geometry, often square elements, but also used for 2-part adhesives).- Static mixers with different element counts or lengths depending on viscosity and desired mix quality.- Other connection types (e.g., A-System, C-System, F-System) would require different cartridges and nozzles.
Comparison Note
The Ritter Round (helix) 17-element nozzle is known for its high-efficiency and low-waste design, providing thorough and consistent mixing for 1:1 and 2:1 ratio 50ml B-System and S-System cartridges. While Quadro designs can offer condensed mixing and potentially lower back pressure for some materials, helical designs like this Ritter nozzle still hold a firm place in the market, especially for established applications and certain higher viscosity materials. Its specific 17-element configuration and 4.4-inch length are optimized for a balance of mix quality and material flow for its intended cartridge system.
