Loctite Polyethylene Taper 0.58mm Needle is engineered for high-precision, repeatable fluid dispensing in automated and manual industrial manufacturing processes. Featuring a smooth 20-gauge tapered polyethylene tip, this dispensing needle minimizes backpressure, prevents fluid clogging, and delivers consistent material flow for high-viscosity gels, adhesives, and sealants.
Key Features & Performance Benefits
-
Tapered Polyethylene Tip: Designed with a smooth conical geometry to reduce fluid resistance, enabling precise beads and dots with lower dispensing pressure.
-
Chemical-Resistant Polyethylene Construction: Inert material compatible with a wide range of industrial chemistry, preventing tip degradation or reactive cross-contamination.
-
Standardized Color-Coded Hub: Pink hub standard allows clear 20-gauge identification on production floors for accurate assembly line setups.
-
Luer-Lock Integration: Securely mounts onto standard manual syringes and pneumatic barrels

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the benefits of using a tapered polyethylene dispensing needle over a stainless steel needle?
Tapered polyethylene needles provide a smooth conical path that substantially reduces backpressure when dispensing high-viscosity fluids like silicones, thick epoxies, or caulks. Polyethylene is also non-scratching and ideal for delicate substrates.
Is the Loctite Polyethylene Taper 0.58mm Needle compatible with standard Luer-Lock syringe barrels?
Yes. The pink 20-gauge hub features universal helical threading that locks tightly onto all standard Luer-Lock pneumatic dispense barrels and manual syringe systems.
What types of materials can be dispensed with 20-gauge pink dispensing tips?
These 0.58mm tapered tips are commonly used for exact volumetric application of cyanoacrylates, UV-cure adhesives, anaerobic threadlockers, liquid gasketing, and room-temperature vulcanizing (RTV) sealants.
