The TEC 7100 is one of a series of new generation pneumatic hotmelt applicators. Probably one of the world’s highest-output hand-held hotmelt applicators, the TEC 7100 is a serious alternative to bulk tank hotmelt systems at a fraction of the cost.
Built to a very high standard, the TEC 7100 is totally self contained. The most unique feature on this tool is the built-in speed loader, which holds an extra two 43mm glue cartridges in reserve. Plus, it also enables the user to re-load in seconds whilst continuing to use the tool. Gluegunsdirect.com say "due to the advanced heater housing design and the powerful dual 500 watt heaters, the TEC 7100 is able to dispense up to 5 kilos of molten hotmelt per hour."
Operating temperature is obtained in only 5 minutes from cold via one of the 500 watt cartridge heaters, then when the trigger is pulled for use, the second 500 watt heater comes into operation and enables the molten adhesive to be dispensed at a constant temperature. Being solvent free and non-toxic there are no environmental problems that are often associated with other adhesive fixing systems, which is a huge advantage with new European Environmental standards being recognised.
The TEC 7100 is supplied complete with an integral gun stand, suspension ring, full operating instructions, one-year guarantee.
