How to choose silicone guns: the complete guide

Introduction

Silicone pistols are tools used to apply sealants, hill and structural stickers. They are used both in the professional and domestic field, to perform small repair works or for the installation of building materials. However, choosing the right gun is not always easy, especially if you don't have experience in the field. In this article, we will guide you in choosing the silicone pistol suitable for your needs.

Silicone pistols

Silicone pistols are divided into two main types: manuals and electrical.

Manual silicone pistols

The manual silicone pistols are robust and resistant and are suitable for coarse works, such as the application of the silicone with the fingers or the consumption of one or two cartridges per week. They are also less expensive than electric guns. However, they require a certain physical effort, especially if large cartridges are used.

Electric silicone guns

Electric silicone guns are precise and quick and are suitable for jobs that require precise and uniform application of the silicone. They are able to deliver large quantities of silicone in a short time and are less tiring to use than manual pistols. However, they are more expensive than manual pistols and require a power outlet to work.

How to choose the right silicone pistol?

Here are some factors to consider when choosing the right silicone pistol:

Expected use

To choose the right gun, it is important to evaluate the expected use. If they are coarse works, such as the application of the silicone with the fingers or the consumption of one or two cartridges per week, a manual gun is the right choice. If, on the other hand, these are works that require a precise and uniform application of silicone, such as professional ones, an electric gun is the best choice.
