Description
The Techcon 17 gauge metal dispensing needle is a 1/2 inch precision tip for controlled placement of adhesives, sealants, coatings, lubricants, and primers. The rigid metal outlet helps keep bead position steady when a flexible plastic tip would bend away from the target, especially on fixed valve setups, pneumatic benches, and repeat hand work.
Where this dispensing needle fits
The 17 gauge size sits between the larger 16 gauge metal tip and smaller detail needles. Use it when the process needs a narrower outlet than a 16 gauge tip but still needs more flow than fine 20 to 27 gauge sizes. The short 1/2 inch length keeps the dispense point close to the syringe, cartridge adapter, or valve outlet, which helps reduce wobble during fast movements and tight fixture work.
Metal tips are useful when operators need a crisp start, a fixed standoff, or a tip that resists curl under pressure. They also help in automated applications where the outlet must return to the same location on every cycle. Replace the tip when cured material narrows the opening, when the cannula bends, or when abrasive fillers change the bead profile after repeated use. Keep opened packs covered so bench dust does not enter the fluid path before the tip reaches the work cell.
