New Cordless M12 Caulking Gun from Milwaukee
Milwaukee® Introduces Most Compact Caulk and Adhesive Gun on the Market
MILWAUKEE, WI– Milwaukee Electric Tool continues to expand the industry’s largest sub-compact battery system with the introduction of the new M12™ Cordless Caulk and Adhesive Gun. With 40% less weight than competitive cordless caulk guns, the new tool is the most compact and lightest weight professional battery powered caulk gun on the market, bridging the gap between heavier high force cordless options and laborious hand tools.
“For years the only professional battery powered caulking guns available have been high force units designed to dispense high viscosity materials in specialty applications. Users that do not commonly dispense these high viscosity materials such as construction, manufacturing, and trade professionals, have continued to use manual tools because the cordless options were too heavy and expensive.” says David Lincoln, Product Manager for Milwaukee Tool Corporation. “The M12™ Caulk and Adhesive gun is a lightweight, compact, and affordable solution that allows users to eliminate the excessive fatigue they experience by using repetitive manual tools all day. This new tool is optimized for use with common construction sealants and adhesives.”
The M12™ Cordless Caulk and Adhesive gun also features Constant Flow Technology for steady dispensing, and a 360º rotating collar design for easy use around turns. A variable speed trigger and six-setting maximum speed dial also optimize the tool’s 0-28 IPM (inches per minute) flow rate for best-in-class control providing cleaner, faster installations. With 400 lbs. of pushing force the M12™ Cordless Caulk and Adhesive gun easily dispenses common construction sealants and hot-applied glazing urethanes.
In addition, a Reversing Anti-Drip feature automatically backs up the plunger to relieve pressure from the tube. A durable hook made of impact modified nylon allows the user to hang the tool for storage while preventing breakage in rugged jobsite conditions.
The M12™ Cordless Caulk and Adhesive Gun will be sold as a 10oz bare tool and in kits with the options of 10oz, Sausage, and Quart style material containers. With an interchangeable Quick-Change carriage design, carriage accessories will be sold separately to allow the user to quickly change the tool to accommodate different material styles.
Powered by revolutionary M12™ RED LITHIUM™ Battery technology*, the new tool will dispense up to 150 10oz tubes of building sealant on just one charge. The new caulk guns are also compatible with the entire M12™ System, now offering over 40 cordless Lithium-Ion products. The M12™ platform is the largest sub-compact system in the industry, offering innovative solutions in power, productivity, and portability.
