Disposable high-temperature syringe barrels

Nordson EFD has introduced Unity HiTemp disposable 30 cc syringe barrels, which reduce the downtime and maintenance costs often associated with aluminium barrels commonly used in the pneumatic dispensing of hot melt adhesives.

The barrels are available in two models: a standard HiTemp syringe barrel that withstands 125°C for 8 h at up to 6 bar and an Extreme HiTemp syringe barrel that withstands 180°C for 8 h at up to 7 bar. The standard barrels can be used with all hot melt adhesives, including moisture cure polyurethanes (PURs) and silyl modified polymers (SMPs). The extreme barrels can be used with polyamides and other types of hot melts, and block UV light between 200 and 500 nm.

Both models are compatible with all Nordson EFD Optimum metal dispense tips, adapters and end caps. An Extreme HiTemp tip cap is available for applications above 125°C.

The syringe barrels are compatible with both Nordson’s dispensing systems and other standard industry hot melt dispensers.
