Description
The Techcon dispensing needle in 23 gauge, 1/2 inch length, blue, comes here as the bulk 1000-count pack used by production lines that consume tips by the case. Techcon’s color-coded TS series puts a 23 gauge tip in blue, which makes line audits and changeover decisions visual rather than tactile. This bulk count is sized for high-volume cyanoacrylate, UV adhesive, and low-viscosity fluid dispensing operations that burn through tips daily.
Where this Techcon dispensing needle fits
A 23 gauge inside diameter places this needle in the precision-bead range. Typical applications include surface-mount adhesive placement, dot-on-demand cyanoacrylate fixturing, micro-volume UV-cure deposits on sensor and optical assemblies, component touch-up where a thicker gauge would over-deposit, and field rework where consistent bead size is more important than throughput. The 1/2 inch length keeps the fluid path short, which reduces drool on stop-start dispensing and limits dead volume in the tip.
Specifications

- Quantity: 1000 needles per pack
- Fitting: standard luer-lock for Techcon and compatible syringe barrels
- Material: stainless steel cannula in polypropylene hub
Selecting the right Techcon dispensing needle
Match the gauge to fluid viscosity and shot size. For lower viscosity fluids under roughly 1,000 cP, the 21 to 25 gauge range is typical. For higher viscosity or filled adhesives, step up to 18 to 20 gauge or move to a tapered tip to limit shear-induced flow problems. CC stocks the full dispensing accessories line from needles through controllers, and we can spec a complete system rather than mixing brands.
