NEWBORN

About Newborn

The Newborn catalogue includes caulk guns in bulk / sausage / cartridge ratchet rod models and epoxy applicators. Newborn air-driven pneumatic caulk guns have a quick-change aluminium barrel and nipple that allow extruding materials from 1/4 and 1/10 gallon cartridges by quickly changing the barrels. These guns are equipped with an adjustable air pressure regulator which offers control over the flow of material and an air dump valve to stop the flow instantly. They offer a maximum pressure rating of 100 psi for use with very high viscosity materials. Users can also dispense sealants manually out of 29 oz or 10 oz containers using Newborn extender caulk gun. For dispensing a controlled flow of epoxy resins out of tubes, the brand offers dual-component pneumatic epoxy applicators with a patented cartridge stabilising plate for maximum support. These applicators offer nominal thrust ranging from 490 to 1100 lb at a maximum pressure of 100 psi, to apply two-component epoxies and other adhesives.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you clean a caulk gun?

Although most chemicals, cleaners and solvents can be used to clean these guns, it is recommended to consult the manufacturer of the material being used to clean the guns.

What does thrust ratio mean?

Thrust ratio is the ratio of the force generated on the trigger versus the force generated to push the material. However, this term is only applicable for manual guns.

How does a dripless caulking gun work?

  • They have a built-in cutter to sever the tip on caulk tubes
  • Insert the tip of the caulk tube through the opening on the handle.
  • This mechanism will clamp onto the rod and squeeze the handle lever.
  • As you press the handle, a razor knife will cleanly cut the plastic caulk tube precisely at the correct distance from the tip.

What is the difference between caulk and sealant?

The major difference between a sealant and caulk is elasticity. Caulk is made from a mixture of acrylic materials and latex, making the mixture more rigid and prone to shrinking when cured. A sealant provides water resistance and superior elasticity, owing to silicon.
