Techcon 16 gauge brown plastic dispensing needle, 1-1/2 inch, pack of 500

Description

The Techcon 16 gauge brown plastic dispensing needle is a 1-1/2 inch flexible tip for controlled placement of cyanoacrylates, primers, solvents, oils, and other assembly fluids. This 500 count bulk pack supports production benches that replace tips frequently, standardize one color-coded size across shifts, or kit large jobs before material reaches the line.

Where this dispensing needle fits

The 16 gauge bore gives a practical balance between flow and control. It is smaller than a 15 gauge tip but still large enough for many low to medium viscosity materials that would be too slow through fine detail sizes. The flexible tube helps operators reach into pockets, around molded ribs, and past fixture edges without forcing the syringe or valve body against the part. Brown color coding makes it easier to separate this size from gray 15 gauge and smaller tips at a mixed-gauge station.

How the flexible tip supports production

Bulk packs make sense where each material change, pause, or cured plug gets a fresh outlet. Plastic tips are often chosen near delicate plastics, painted parts, glass, and finished assemblies because the tube can flex instead of scratching the surface. The TS-P series can be trimmed to shorten reach or stiffen the tip, and the manufacturer lists a 100 psi maximum operating pressure for the family. During setup, confirm flow with the actual fluid before locking the gauge into a work instruction, then keep that size consistent for repeat orders.
