Using sealants with a caulking gun

The basics of using sealant in hard PE cartridges, from opening the cartridge to storing it afterwards.

1. Cut an opening on the cartridge
2. Screw in the nozzle
3. Cut the nozzle to suit the joint width
4. Load the cartridge into the gun (mechanisms vary by gun)
5. Pull the trigger to dispense the sealant
6. Remove the cartridge from the gun
7. Store the cartridge properly

You can convert a sausage sealant gun to take hard PE cartridges. See our conversion guide.

For cartridges, use the Dripless Sealant Caulking Gun or, for thick products, the Heavy-duty Sealant Caulking Gun. For foil sausages up to 600 ml, use the Heavy Duty Sausage Foil Applicator Gun.
