Techcon Pyles 985-X Dispensing Nozzle, 4-Inch x 1/8-Inch, Single Unit

Description

The Techcon Pyles 985-X is a dispensing needle built to thread onto a Techcon Pyles cartridge and lay down a controlled bead of adhesive, sealant, or grease. This single-unit pack size suits a first trial of the 1/8 inch orifice before ordering a 50-count pack or a 1000-piece case, or a one-off replacement to finish a job already underway. At 4 inches long with a female buttress thread, the nozzle threads onto the cartridge’s molded boss and seats tight enough to hold under dispensing pressure without backing off mid-bead. Buttress threads are coarse and asymmetric by design, built to engage quickly by hand and resist being pushed back off the fitting once the cartridge is under load, which is exactly the failure mode a fine machine thread would risk under repeated trigger pulls.

Where This Dispensing Needle Fits

Buttress-thread Pyles nozzles run on assembly lines and repair benches dispensing one-part and two-part adhesives, RTV sealants, greases, and other viscous fluids straight from 6 ounce and 12 ounce cartridges. Cartridges run on hand-held manual guns or bench-mounted air-powered dispensing tools, and the nozzle system as a whole is rated for use up to 100 psi, industrial grade safe, and free of silicone contamination, which matters on assembly lines where a stray silicone trace can ruin a paint or bonding step downstream. The 1/8 inch orifice on the 985-X lays down a wider bead than the 3/32 inch nozzle in the same family or the 1/16 inch version, so it fits gasketing, gap filling, and general bonding work where a heavier bead is the goal rather than a hairline trace. Techcon also builds a 1/32 inch version in the same 4 inch body and a shorter 2.5 inch body in 1/8 inch and 1/16 inch orifices, so the family covers most bead widths a dispensing job calls for without switching cartridge systems. Techcon documents the full nozzle and cartridge lineup, along with its wider syringe and valve dispensing systems, on the Techcon product catalog, worth a look before standardizing a bill of materials on one orifice size. A single nozzle like this covers a first trial of a new fluid, a one-off field repair, or confirming bead width before a production line commits to a full case.

Dispensing Needle Specifications

Buy the 985-X as a single unit when sampling the tip style, swapping out one nozzle that clogged or got tossed, or testing fit on a cartridge gun before standardizing on a bulk pack. Browse the full dispensers, mixers, and nozzles category for the 50-count and 1000-count Pyles nozzle packs, cartridges, plungers, and caps once the orifice size is confirmed for the job.
