EPX glue gun 3M

      Description of the EPX gun

EPX guns for two-component adhesives offer an exact and optimal mix of the two components of a glue.

EPX means "Exact Proportioning Mixer" and it was developed by the company 3M. This gun is a reliable and industrial alternative to manually mixed two-component adhesives. It is used with adapted double-body cartridges and with an adapted mixing nozzle and plunger. 

The shape of the cartridge and the plunger ensure the mixing of the two components (Base and Accelerator) in 1/1 (one for one), 1/2 or 1/10 proportions.

      Somes tips for making the right choice ?

• For intensive use, a pneumatic gun in 265 ml or 400 ml is the moste suitable.
• Please note that two-components adhesives requires appropriate mixing, therefore the use of an adequate mixing nozzle is essential.
• EPX guns come with a standard plunger. In the case of an adhesive that requires 1/10 mixing, consider using the appropriate plunger.
