  • Provides positive "quick close" by pulling grease
    back from nozzle tip after dispense

  • Minimizes or eliminates oozing or drooling of grease
    from nozzle tip

  • Makes use of nozzle motion for actuation of snuff-back
  • Causes positive "quick open" by instantly supplying grease to nozzle tip at start of dispense

  • Compensates for the compressibility of grease and swelling and bending hoses

  • Includes "tip to part" distance control adjustment with lock nut
BEFORE
System peculiarities cause messy nozzle tips and unacceptable grease dispensing.
After-bleed or oozing caused by hose or compressible grease Grease may not stick to part because nozzle is too far from part Grease sticks to nozzle that is too close to part
AFTER
The snuff-back nozzle solves these problems by pulling grease back inside nozzle and precisely controlling nozzle "tip to part" distance. With the snuff-back nozzle, grease dispensing will look like this.
Perfect Dispense




Clean
Nozzle
Tip

The SBN-1000 nozzle has "tip to part" adjustment and includes spring loaded piston to pull (snuff) grease inside nozzle as nozzle is moved away from part. Nozzle has 1/8 NPT grease inlet and 1/4" OD (0.191" inside diameter) tip and functions with NLGI 000 through 3 grease with volumes between 0.040 and 3.00 cc.

TYPICAL APPLICATION:
Nozzle will mount on user's motion device (often a non-rotating air cylinder) with a stroke of 1" or more. As cylinder extends, snuff-back actuator contacts part and stops movement at adjusted setting. When cylinder retracts, snuff-back causes clean break and clean nozzle.
