FAQs
What size tubes does this caulking gun fit?
This caulking gun is specifically designed to work with standard 310ml tubes or cartridges.
What types of materials can I use with this gun?
You can use a variety of viscous materials packaged in standard 310ml tubes, including silicone sealants, acrylic caulks, construction adhesives, and glues.
How do I prevent material from dripping when I'm not squeezing the trigger?
After each application, press the release lever located at the back of the gun. This releases the pressure on the plunger rod and stops the flow of material.
Is this caulking gun suitable for professional use?
Yes, the robust steel and aluminum handle, reinforced gear, and high pressing force are designed for professional applications and durability.
How heavy is the caulking gun?
The caulking gun is lightweight, weighing approximately 260g, which helps reduce user fatigue during extended use.
What is the maximum pressing force?
The gun provides a high pressing force of up to 1500N, allowing for easy extrusion of even thick materials.
How should I clean the caulking gun?
After use, release pressure, wipe down the gun with a damp cloth to remove excess material, and store it in a dry place.
Troubleshooting
Material not extruding
Ensure the plunger rod is fully engaged with the back of the tube. Check that the release lever at the back is not engaged, which would release pressure.
Material oozing after trigger release
Press the release lever at the back of the gun firmly after each application to release the pressure on the plunger rod.
Stiff or uneven extrusion
Ensure the tube is properly seated and the plunger rod is making firm contact. Check the reinforced gear for any obstructions. Ensure the material in the tube is not old or dried out.
Handle feels difficult to squeeze
Verify that the tube is a standard 310ml size and not deformed. Some very thick adhesives may require more force, but excessive difficulty might indicate a jam or obstruction within the gun's mechanism.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure the caulking gun is clean.
- Select your standard 310ml tube of sealant, adhesive, or glue.
- Press the release trigger or lever at the back of the gun and pull the plunger rod all the way back.
- Insert the tube into the gun's skeleton frame, ensuring the nozzle end faces forward.
- Push the plunger rod forward until it makes firm contact with the back of the tube.
- Gently squeeze the trigger to begin extruding material. Release the trigger to stop. Press the release lever again to relieve pressure after application.
Compatibility:
- This gun is designed for standard 310ml cartridges.
- It is suitable for materials like silicone, acrylic, adhesives, glues, and other viscous "plastic masses" that come in standard tubes.
Care:
- After each use, release the pressure on the plunger rod by pressing the release lever.
- Wipe any excess material from the gun's frame and plunger rod with a clean, damp cloth.
- Store in a dry place, away from extreme temperatures.
- Periodically inspect the gear mechanism for debris and clean if necessary.
