Optimum® Chamfered Dispense Tips – Precision for Micro-Deposits of Low-Viscosity Fluids
Optimum® chamfered dispense tips are engineered for micro-deposit applications where accuracy is critical. Featuring a special outer diameter taper, these tips minimize wicking and deliver precise, repeatable deposits of low-viscosity fluids such as solvents and adhesives.
Why Choose Chamfered Dispense Tips?
Anti-Wicking Design: Tapered outer diameter reduces surface contact for better deposit control.
Ideal for Delicate Applications: Perfect for dispensing between tight or sensitive surfaces.
Consistent Performance: Designed for exact, repeatable microdot deposits.
Secure Attachment: Patented SafetyLok™ hub thread ensures leak-free connection to syringe barrels.
Smooth Fluid Flow: Flush hub design prevents trapped air, reducing dripping and drooling.
Key Features
Free of flash, burrs, and contaminants for reliable dispensing.
Color-coded hubs for easy gauge identification.
Clear packaging with lot numbers for process control and traceability.
360° SafetyLok™ thread for safe, positive attachment.
Engineered hub flats for quick twist-on/twist-off handling.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Dispensing Tip?
A dispensing tip is a narrow metal or plastic tip used in precision dispensing systems to make consistent deposits of fluid used in assembly processes. Dispensing tips, also called dispense tips or dispensing needles, most commonly attach to the end of a syringe barrel reservoir.
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 is the best dispensing tip for a thin fluid?
A chamfered dispense tip can help prevent wicking. These dispensing tips feature tapered outer diameters (ODs), reducing surface area. The shape inhibits wicking, giving better control of the dispensing process.
