Made from burr-free, polished passivated stainless steel, Optimum® general purpose dispense tips are ideal for handling a wide range of assembly fluids to deliver precise, consistent deposits every time.
The SafetyLok hub thread enhances safety and security during attachment. Each hub is designed for flush mating with the cutoff, ensuring smooth fluid flow and minimizing trapped air, which can cause dripping or drooling. Manufactured in the USA in silicone-free facilities, these tips prevent fluid contamination and are certified for industrial use. Color-coded hubs facilitate quick size identification, aiding efficient inventory management.
Tips are packaged in clear boxes that display lot numbers, part numbers, and other relevant information, supporting better process control and traceability. Overall, these tips combine safety, precision, and high quality, making them ideal for sensitive dispensing tasks in industrial and laboratory settings.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use any dispensing tip with any fluid?
Although in theory, any dispensing tip can be used with any fluid, the success of an application often depends upon choosing a tip that addresses certain fluid challenges.
Can I reuse a dispense tip?
Like syringe barrels, precision dispensing tips are designed for single use only. The dimensions make them impossible to fully clean. Any attempted reuse can lead to cross-contamination between like fluids, dissimilar fluids, and even the cleaning material. Worse, particularly in the case of adhesives or high viscosity fluids, the tip could become blocked entirely.
What's the difference between a dispensing tip and a dispensing needle?
The most common style of dispensing tip consists of a steel cannula bonded into a plastic hub. Cannula diameters can range from multiple millimeters to a fraction of a millimeter. Particularly when attached to a syringe barrel, tips with narrower cannulas are reminiscent of needles used for medical injections. However, their ends are not sharp, and they are made for industrial use only. The names may be different but the devices – and their functions – are the same.
