TT-13 Plastic Tapered 13 Gauge TT Adhesive Dispensing Tip

13G TT All Plastic Slanting Dispensing Needles TT-13 13G Fluid Dispensing Needle

A TT 13G dispensing needle is a tapered, blunt-tip dispensing tip with a 13-gauge bore, used for dispensing medium to high-viscosity fluids like adhesives, sealants, and pastes.

Product description

• Gauge size (13G): The large diameter is optimal for high-viscosity materials and allows for faster dispensing. The color code for 13G is light blue.
• Tapered tip (TT): The smooth, tapered design promotes the flow of thick liquids and helps prevent clogging. It also allows you to use a lower air pressure setting on pneumatic dispensers, which prevents the separation of particle-filled materials.
• Blunt tip: The tip is not sharp, which makes it safe for industrial applications. A blunt end also minimizes clogging when dispensing thick substances.
• Material: The tips are typically made of polypropylene plastic, which is often opaque or contains a UV-blocking additive to protect light-sensitive materials from curing inside the tip.
• Hub: The base of the tip is a threaded Luer lock, which provides a secure connection to a dispenser syringe barrel, manual syringe, or fluid dispenser.

Applications

TT 13G dispensing needles are used for applying a wide range of materials in various industries, including electronics, manufacturing, and automotive device production.

Common applications include:

• Adhesives: Dispensing cyanoacrylate adhesives and other industrial glues.
• Pastes: Accurately applying solder pastes in electronics manufacturing.
• Sealants: Dispensing sealing compounds in industrial assembly.
• Compounds with fillers: Dispensing particle-filled materials where a consistent flow is needed without causing separation.
• UV-cure materials: Applying UV-cure adhesives, which are protected from light by the tip's material.
