Newborn Super Smooth Rod Caulking Gun, 1/10-Gallon Capacity, 18:1 Thrust Ratio

The Newborn 250 Super Smooth Rod Revolving Frame caulking gun is a steel revolving frame that accommodates 1/10-gal. cartridges and boasts an impressive 18:1 thrust ratio, suitable for a variety of materials including acrylic, adhesives, asphalt, butyl, and cement. Its revolving frame enables the cartridge to rotate, ensuring consistent bead orientation while caulking corners. The smooth pressure rod operates with less force and minimal noise compared to a ratchet-style pressure rod. The gun is equipped with a zinc alloy handle and trigger for added corrosion resistance, along with a seal puncture tool and a spout cutter conveniently built into the side of the gun for easy cartridge opening without the need for a knife.

Caulking guns, also known as caulk or cartridge guns, are designed to dispense a controlled flow of products such as caulk, sealants, and adhesives from a tube or cartridge. A manual caulking gun typically consists of a frame that holds the tube, a trigger, and a rod that dispenses the product when the trigger is activated. The thrust ratio of a manual caulking gun determines how easy it is to dispense the caulk, sealant, or adhesive. On the other hand, air-powered or pneumatic caulking guns operate with an air pressure regulator that pushes the product from the tube using air pressure instead of a rod.
