Nordson TAH 161-218 Static Mixer Nozzle

Description

Nordson TAH 161-218 is a disposable static mixer nozzle for two-component adhesive, sealant, coating, and potting material dispensing. The nozzle gives operators a bell-inlet spiral mix path for larger cartridge and meter-mix setups.

TAH 161-218 Benefits

• Eighteen mixing elements help blend resin and hardener before the bead reaches the part.
• Bell inlet design fits compatible Nordson 160 and 161 series dispensing connections.
• Stepped outlet lets operators trim the tip to suit the bead size when the process allows it.
• Disposable nozzle format reduces cleanup after mixed material starts to cure.
• Large-format compatibility supports higher-volume two-part cartridge and machine dispensing work.

Use this mixer when the adhesive system calls for a 161 series spiral bell mixer and a fresh static path is required. Keeping the correct nozzle with the cartridge or meter-mix setup helps protect ratio control and reduces wasted material.

TAH 161-218 Applications

• Mixing epoxy, silicone, acrylic, methacrylate, polyurethane, and polysulfide materials.
• Electronics, aerospace, automotive, wind turbine, construction, and concrete repair work.
• Large side-by-side cartridge dispensing above 50 mL when the connector matches.
• Meter-mix valve or manifold setups using bell inlet static mixers.
• Maintenance stock for teams replacing cured or blocked nozzles during shifts.

Setup And Use

Confirm the mixer series, inlet style, cartridge size, and material pressure before installation. Purge both adhesive sides evenly before attaching the mixer, then discard the first short bead if the material procedure requires it.

Do not reuse a mixer after material begins to gel. If pressure rises, stop and check for cured adhesive, wrong mixer selection, or a blocked outlet rather than forcing material through the nozzle.
