Do I need a mechanical gun to work with chemical anchors

Is it necessary to have a mechanical gun to work with chemical anchors, sealants and other adhesives?

There are cases when the justification for refusing to buy a mechanical gun for various cartridges (with glue, sealant or chemical anchors) is a lack of information. Users simply do not fully understand what this tool is for and how to use it. It may seem that no additional tools are needed to extrude the material from the tube and it can be easily done manually. 

In fact, when working with such materials, a mechanical gun is an indispensable device. Only with its help you can use up the composition to the end and not suffer by squeezing it out manually. Some sealants and adhesives simply cannot be squeezed out of the cartridge without such a gun. However, its advantages do not end there.

Using a professional mechanical pistol allows the user to work as accurately and quickly as possible. Simply pressing the trigger makes it possible to get a uniform layer of the composition, as well as apply it several times faster than when squeezing manually.

Where is a mechanical cartridge gun used?

There are three main areas where this tool is used most often:

  • Construction – a professional gun is used to perform complex tasks, for example, to fill voids and cracks in the sewer system, to repair roofs, blow out mounting foam, etc. The reinforced design of the mechanical gun withstands frequent operation and allows you to squeeze compounds from cartridges of different volumes.
  • Repair – for laying laminate, tiles, sealing various joints and seams, fixing decorative elements and furniture, it is impossible to do without all kinds of adhesives, sealants, liquid nails and other materials in tubes that cannot be used without a gun. With such a tool, you can easily squeeze out the right amount of composition and fully control the application process.
  • Repair of objects – gluing various surfaces, as well as a variety of small repairs of all kinds of things are also used adhesives in cartridges, for which a gun is needed.
     

Do I need a mechanical gun for home use?

If you have to repair, it is unlikely to be possible to do without a professional mechanical pistol. In particular, it is indispensable when repairing a bathroom, where it is necessary to use tile adhesive, plumbing sealant, as well as chemical anchors for gluing complex surfaces. A high-quality reliable mechanical gun will help to perform all the work cleanly, quickly and effortlessly. Such a tool is the Tekno mechanical gun, which is designed for uniform extrusion of compounds of different viscosities from cartridges.
 


 

Among the advantages of this tool are:

  • the ability to work even with very dense and dense compositions
  • no need for maintenance
  • high-quality fuse that protects against piston rollback
  • optimal extrusion force of compositions from cartridges
  • ergonomic handle shape with a special rubberized insert
  • reinforced metal housing construction.


The Tekno mechanical pistol can be used for a variety of construction and repair tasks, if the volume of the working cartridge allows it.
