Techcon TE718150PK 18 Gauge Green TE Needle, 50 Pack

Description

TE718150PK needle is an 18 gauge green Techcon TE dispensing tip supplied in a 50 pack for controlled material placement from syringe barrels, dispense valves, and compatible luer lock fittings. The 1-1/2 inch stainless cannula gives extra reach for beads, dots, fills, and access into fixtures.

TE718150PK needle Benefits

• 18 gauge flow path suits many adhesives, sealants, solvents, primers, oils, and assembly fluids.
• 1-1/2 inch length reaches deeper into housings, fixtures, and narrow work areas.
• Green color coding helps operators identify the 18 gauge tip quickly.
• Double-helix polypropylene hub helps secure the needle to compatible luer lock equipment.
• Electro-polished stainless cannula supports clean, repeatable flow through the tip.

This needle is a better fit than a shorter tip when the dispense point sits below a surface, inside a part, or behind a fixture wall. It also works well as a stocked bench tip for medium-flow manual and valve-fed dispensing.

Where TE718150PK needle Fits

• Adhesive beads in recessed joints and small production fixtures.
• Solvent, primer, or oil placement where a longer metal tip is useful.
• Sealant or grease dots from syringe barrels in maintenance work.
• Valve-fed dispensing cells using TE Series precision tips.
• General manufacturing benches that need 18 gauge tips in 50 pack supply.

Setup And Use

Confirm fluid viscosity, dispense pressure, and needle length before running parts. Start with low pressure and increase slowly until the deposit is stable. If material tails, spits, or flows too quickly, reduce pressure or review whether a smaller gauge is better for the job.

Keep the cannula straight and discard bent tips. Replace needles when cured material or particles change bead shape. For automated equipment, verify clearance at the start and end of the dispense path.
