Electric guns for sealant

During repair and in everyday life, many faced the problem of applying any sealing substance. I want to seam out smooth and neat, and the flow of the sealant itself was minimal. At the same time, everything must be done qualitatively. For these purposes, an ideal electric gun for sealant, operating on 220V.

Electric gun designed to facilitate the application of sealant. With minimal energy expenditure, everything can be done much neater and faster than not using this device.

The body and the piston rod are essential elements of any sealant gun. They help squeeze the composition to the desired surface. To control the amount of extruded sealant there is a trigger. Experts advise to choose the closed types of guns because of the reliable fixation of the container with a sealant, which prevents the composition from entering the interior of the device.

When you press the trigger, the piston starts moving, acts on the container with a sealant and the composition is squeezed out through the nose. The only drawback of the electric gun is its poor mobility, since the range is limited by the cord.

It has much more advantages:

• constant high power;
• minimum consumption of sealant;
• accuracy of application;
• low weight compared to the battery model;
• variability of models;
• the cost is several times less than the battery analogs.

Using an electric gun for sealant is easy. The main thing is to follow the sequence of actions.

• First of all, it is necessary to prepare the tube for further use. Her nose is cut at a 45 degree angle. Given its conical shape, you can pick up the amount of extruded sealant for the thickness of the seam.Experts advise beginners to make the first cut the smallest and, if necessary, increase it. Some recommend simply piercing the opening, but because of this, the resilience of the extruded material increases dramatically, which negatively affects the work.
• After opening it is necessary to fill the gun. Difficulties may arise at this stage if you are doing everything for the first time. First you need to loosen the pistol fixing nut. Pull the rod all the way. Insert the container with sealant into the body and fix it. After that, you can proceed to sealing the seams.

• Surface must be treated before application. Dust, dirt or oil will adversely affect the adhesion of the surface and sealant. You also need to dry the place of the future seam. It is not recommended to make it wider than 12 cm.
• Filling the seam is the fourth stage. It passes very simply. It is necessary to press the trigger of the gun under the sealant, moving it as the seam is filled.
• The final step is to smooth the seam with a spatula.

Sealant should not contact with skin of hands. It freezes very quickly and it becomes problematic to wash it.Points and gloves will become reliable protection for hands and eyes. Roba will protect clothes from dirt.

Fresh drops can be removed with a damp cloth. If you do not do it immediately, then the composition will grasp tightly and it can only be removed mechanically. This is the main reason why the instrument should be immediately cleaned of the mixture that fell on it.

Before going to the store you should think about the operating conditions of the tool, on the basis of which it is worth making a choice.

• Volume Cartridges are designed for 280 ml. This is a household option. Tubes with a volume of 300-800 ml are designed for professional use. For two-component sealants, there are devices with a special nozzle for mixing.
• Housing Steel guns are suitable for cartridge sealants, and aluminum guns are used for tubes.
• Convenience. Take the gun in your hand. Determine whether it is convenient for you to keep it.
• Appearance. The casing should not be damaged, cracked or chipped.
