FAQs
What size sealant cartridges does this gun fit?
This Rolson Sealant Gun is designed to fit most standard cartridges measuring between 380ml and 425ml.
How do I stop the sealant from dripping?
To stop the flow of sealant, simply lift your finger off the trigger and ensure the release lever is fully engaged.
Is the construction durable?
Yes, the gun features a steel skeleton frame, which provides significant durability and is built to withstand regular use.
Can I use this gun for adhesive tubes?
Yes, as long as the adhesive comes in a standard 380-425ml cartridge, this gun should be suitable for application.
How should I clean the sealant gun?
Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth after use. Avoid using abrasive cleaners. Ensure the plunger mechanism is kept free of debris.
What is the main benefit of the release lever?
The release lever provides precise control over sealant flow, allowing you to stop extrusion instantly and prevent drips or waste.
Troubleshooting
Sealant not extruding
Ensure the plunger rod is fully engaged with the cartridge and the trigger is pressed firmly. Check that the cartridge is correctly seated.
Sealant continues to flow after releasing trigger
Ensure the release lever is fully engaged. Check if the plunger rod is clean and moving freely; debris might be preventing full retraction.
Difficulty pushing the plunger handle
Check for any dried sealant or debris around the plunger rod or within the frame. Ensure the cartridge is not obstructed.
Uneven sealant bead
Ensure the tip of the cartridge is cut to the appropriate size for the desired bead. Maintain a consistent speed and pressure while applying.
