The Nordson Mini-Squirt is a quality hot melt gun with internal melt reservoir and high volume piston pump. The Nordson Mini Squirt melts hot melt adhesive in chip form and applies the hot melt to substrates in bead form through a check valve nozzle tip. The use of a Nordson Mini Squirt is a quality upgrade from hot melt stick guns as it will process a much wider range of low cost hot melts and allow for much faster application of this hot melt.
Please note that the Nordson specification sheet regarding this tool is incorrect as the gun holds approximately three ounces or 80 grams of molten hot melt and not the 7 ounces or 198 grams that Nordson claims. Also, users should be made aware that 15 minutes is an insufficient amount of time for the gun to heat prior to use. Operators should wait a full 20 minutes for this gun to properly heat the hot melt.
Finally, because the gun has very good output capability, hot melt can be used far faster than the gun can melt the adhesive. Consider a premelt tank from Glue Machinery Corporation to supply the Nordson Mini Squirt hot melt handgun with molten adhesive.
