I believe so, because that is essentially what you put in it. I'm aware that it was not designed for such purposes. I'd be most concerned about the ca's thinness and the ease with which it could be cleaned, because the needle would clog.
I've never heard of a "luer lock style needle." I use this applicator to add a few drops of super glue accelerator.
It's a 25 gauge needle tip, according to the description.
In my experience, this is not the case. It does, however, use a (blunt) luer lock tip, similar to those found on medical devices. It is held in place by a metal retaining ring that is nearly impossible to remove without causing a leak, as is the case with type syringes. Holding the needle in a flame and squeezing the bottle to expel air is one way to unclog a clogged needle. Do so at your own risk, but it works on my CA accelerator bottles!

I was hesitant to purchase an applicator bottle because the guys at my makerspace insist on using everything from straws to knife blades to spatulas, among other things. Overall, save yourself the trouble and just do it. Acrylic Weld can ooze like water in some cases. br>br>I only docked a star because this thing is in desperate need of a funnel! When I was trying to get Acrylic Weld into the tiny bottle, I spilled some!.
For more than 30 years, I've been making acrylic products, and this is the industry standard. Applicator bottle with a standard shape. What can I say, it's a fantastic tool when used properly. If you're new to using this applicator and fabricating acrylic, one tip is to avoid sucking glue back into the bottle while it's in contact with the acrylic. Acrylic that has only partially dissolved will clog the nozzle and there will be no way to clear it. As long as the needle is in direct contact with the joint, squeezing the bottle gently is required.
This applicator worked beautifully with the water-thin acrylic solvent cement I use to put together acrylic structures. br>Acrylic solvent cement should not be stored in this applicator bottle because the cap will allow the solvent to evaporate quickly. Return any solvent that hasn't been used to its airtight storage container.
As a professional model maker who works with cyanoacrylate glues (CA - cyanoacrylate - cyanoacrylate - cyanoacrylate - cyan To apply a drop or two of accelerator to the CA in a PRECISE manner, I use an applicator bottle like this. This is far superior to the alternative spray bottles, which can flood a room. The spray is extremely wasteful in terms of money, and it also poses a health risk due to lingering droplets in the air. I strongly advise any modeler to use this Weld-On spray bottle instead of their hobbyist spray bottle. On the subject of Applicator.
I made an attempt. I had no idea the opening was so small. I tried using it for light gun oil, but it was difficult to remove. Because the needle is the same size all the way through, it cannot be reduced in size.
This arrived just in time; I originally purchased it to apply plexiglass adhesives, but ended up using it to unclog and prime an ink line in an ink jet printer. It was also very useful for this purpose!.
The cap on the bottle was cracked when it arrived. There are far too many leaks for it to be of any use. It appears that I put off returning it for too long. br>I just checked my other bottle, which is also cracked. If anyone has a suggestion, that would be great.
I use this to oil hard-to-reach springs on my guns; it's a little slow to let out the oil for that application, and the needle could be a little bigger; however, I realize that's not what it's for, and it still works fine.
