Precision Applicators - Dispense Pack by Rockler

Purchased to repair a child's rocking chair which had its arms loosen over time and start wobbling a bit. I could not easily or quickly disassemble the arms because there were brads driven deeply to secure the uprights into their sockets in the chair seat, so I needed to go the injection route in order to avoid a lot of destructive digging to extract the brads.The joints were still fairly tight and the wood (mortise and tenons both) in good shape so I figured I did not need to use a gap filling glue like Gorilla, and would just use Titebond II of which I have a good supply around the workshop.I used the plastic tip supplied in light peach color (not everyone would say flesh-toned) and drilled a 3/32 in. hole into each of the uprights supporting the arms, and into one lateral arm socket (the other I could open freely). I then filled the syringe from the top with straight, undiluted Titebond II wood glue, then injected into the holes -- wiggling the arm assemblies a little as I injected -- until I had modest overflow from the joints. Set the arm assemblies firmly into place by hand pressure.Voila! It was a very neat operation, quickly accomplished, and the rocker is as good as new.I was pleased that I could inject straight undiluted Titebond without trouble. Virtually no mess, no worries about overly diluting the glue, and the joints are now nicely immobilized.Cleanup of the syringe, plunger, and "needle" were easily done with hot tap water. Cleaning out the cap was a bit more tedious, but I used the syringe to inject hot tap water into the cap about 8-10 times to wash out some glue that had accumulated in the cap. Pressure-washing in miniature if you will. Overall, clean-up of the four pieces used -- cap, "needle," syringe, and plunger -- took only 4 minutes with hot tap water. This was, of course, with the water soluble Titebond glue.I recommend the product highly for similar uses. I could see clearly how it would work for tiny, spot applications of glue for hobbyist projects. Very nice assortment of "needles" or nozzles.- husband's review

I ordered these because I needed to use a syringe with dye I purchases separately in order to test for leaks in some cracks in my pool. When they first arrived, the top end of one of the syringes was broken due to poor handling by the mail deliverer. The items were packaged well, but due to apparently very rough handling one of the two arrived broken. I still had the other one to use, which was enough for the job, but nonetheless the seller immediately sent out a pack of two new ones, which I got in two days, to replace the one broken one. This says a lot about the seller, their ethic, and their pride in their product and customer support! Back to the product itself...the syringes are of high quality, sturdy, and seem to be long-lasting (i.e. I'm going to keep them for years and I'm sure they're going to be just as good 5 or more years from now as when they first arrived). The array of tips provided let me choose the perfect size to use for releasing the dye underwater. The tips fit perfectly on the syringe tip with no apparent danger of falling off. I'm going to use this set again to repair a crack in my leather car seat using leather paint/filler/adhesive. I'll try a thicker tip in this case, then rinse it off for further use down the line. "Unfortunately" I'm one of those who does a lot of research for buying even the smallest, most inexpensive, products...something in my character. Because of this sometimes I tend to overthink purchases of even the more mundane items. Looking at all the reviews I like to determine the optimal product to buy -- not necessarily the cheapest or the best (although in this case it probably was the best too), then I go with the one that seems to provide the best bang-for-the-buck for the job. This was that product for me. I'm usually right 99 times out of 10.

Easy to use and inexpensive. I used it to accurately dispense fluid to tighten chair rungs.

PLEASE NOTE THIS REVIEW IS FOR CRAFTING USE. Quite simply this product does what it is supposed to do. I make jewelry and when mixing a two stage epoxy resin, the epoxy and hardener must be in precise, equal quantities or else your final product will not set properly. Not only did these applicators make drawing and dispensing part a and b easier (they come in large plastic bottles and I mix small batches), but they also helped get rid of those dreaded air bubbles by holding upright and ridding the extra air. Just make sure not to plunge too hard on the expel so you don't get "sputter" bubbles. The pack of two was perfect for my needs and they're totally reusable (for my purposes) as long as you label them and keep them in their own cups so the resin never hardens! The applicators were packaged well but not in an overblown fashion and arrived quickly. I also love the deep dark numbering on the sides, it's nice to not have to squint in order to see where your meniscus line is!PROS: Low Cost, Great Quality, Fast Shipping, Easy To Read, Easy To Plunge, Cuts Down On Bubbles in your resin work (see tips below), makes large containers easier to dispense fromCONS: Applicators do not have their own containers so you have to be sure to label each of everything and keep in its own cup so as not to mix them up and use the wrong applicator for the wrong substance.TIPS: When using for resin work, hold the applicator upwards to dispel air bubbles then plunge out stopping just short of full expulsion to avoid the small "sputter" bubbles formed by the plunger being compressed. If you still have trouble with bubbles warm the applicators SLIGHTLY and those suckers will be gone!*** Did you find this review helpful? I hope so!
