Definitions

  • caulking guns have been the subject of undesireable afterflow, i.e. the interior of the cartridge is still subject to overpressure after the plunger is no longer actively urged forward and, as a result, additional amounts of composition are forced from the cartridge.
  • the caulking tube system with a spacing ⁇ D > 0.0 mm may at first appear illogical because the compositions contained in such tubes cure upon contact with the air and any such opening rather goes against common sense.
  • the inventor has been able to ascertain that, after actuation, a sealing ring of dried composition forms between the flange 12 and the inner wall surface of the tube 8.
  • a sealing ring of dried composition forms between the flange 12 and the inner wall surface of the tube 8.
  • that temporary seal is broken and the slide seal between the flange 12 and the inner wall surface of the tube 8 is effected by soft composition.
  • the contracting tube 8 is able to push the backwall 11 back, instead of causing undesireable afterflow.
