What's the use of a 5635.0001 cartridge application gun in a car body shop?
An application gun for standard cartridges is a fundamental tool in the bodywork trade, and is suitable for PROFESSIONAL USE ONLY. It allows you to accurately measure out and apply putties, adhesives, glues or sealants packaged in cartridges. In bodywork, these cartridges contain technical products (e.g. PU sealants, two-component adhesives, PVC glues, putties) that require precise flow control to :
- Ensure a clean bond or joint, without excess material
- Ensure even distribution of the putty or adhesive, particularly on irregular surfaces or joint areas
- Reduce waste and ensure accurate dosing, optimising the yield of expensive products
- Facilitate application at height in difficult positions, using a gun adapted to the cartridge
An applicator gun offers precision, efficiency and ergonomics - impact spanners in a professional bodyshop. The 4CR 5635.0001 applicator gun is specially designed for 50ml cartridges.
Why use this particular 4CR cartridge gun in a bodywork workshop?
1. Ideal for technical adhesives:
Bodyworkers sometimes use products such as very specific adhesives or putties that are packaged in small volume cartridges such as 50ml. The 4CR 5635.0001 gun makes it possible to apply these products with good control, avoiding excess or waste.
2. Precision on small areas:
For Spot-repairs, localised assemblies or difficult parts (insert, reinforcement, trim), a gun adapted to the small cartridge format is extremely useful. It allows you to apply just the right amount of Putty or adhesive without wasting any.
3. Ergonomics and productivity:
Thanks to its design, this gun makes application smoother and less tiring than with "do-it-yourself" methods. This can speed up installation work, especially when many small cartridges have to be used throughout the day.
4. Reduce waste :
Using well-matched cartridge guns reduces product wastage, which can represent significant savings when cartridges contain expensive adhesives or putties.
Using the specialised cartridge application gun:
1. Preparation:
- Check that the cartridge is compatible
- Clean the cartridge tip and, if necessary, cut the Nozzle at a suitable angle.
- Make sure the gun is clean and in good condition
2. Loading :
- Insert the cartridge into the gun
- Engage the stem until it pushes gently against the bottom of the cartridge
3. Application:
- Gradually pull the trigger to release the product
- Adjust the flow rate according to the thickness of the bead or the surface to be covered
- Apply evenly, keeping a steady angle
4. Check:
- Check the uniformity of the joint or bead applied
- For two-component type adhesives, make sure the mixture is homogeneous if the cartridge so provides
5 Cleaning :
- After use, remove the empty cartridge and clean the parts in contact with the product.
- Store the gun in a dry, clean place.
- Regularly check the condition of mechanical parts (stem, trigger) to ensure optimum operation.
Â
In conclusion, the cartridge gun is a tool designed to facilitate the precise application of any cartridge product in the body shop. This standard model makes it easy to adjust the flow rate and pressure to obtain a uniform bead, whether for putty, glue or paint. Its manual operation makes it simple and reliable, and it's highly recommended for all jobs requiring precision and cleanliness. The detailed product description emphasises that it's ideal for adding even coats and controlling each application perfectly. For any professional bodybuilder, this gun is an essential tool for optimum results.
