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.
