A seal puncture tool and a spout cutter are built into the side of gun for opening cartridges without a knife, and the hook on the back allows it to hang on a ladder Newborn.

Caulking guns, often known as caulk or cartridge guns, dispense a controlled go with the flow of products such as caulk, sealants, and adhesives from a tube or cartridge. A manual caulking gun consists of a frame which holds the tube, a trigger, and a rod which moves forward when the trigger is depressed, dispensing the product. Manual caulking guns have a thrust ratio; the higher the thrust ratio, the easier it is to dispense the caulk, sealant, or adhesive. Air-powered or pneumatic caulking guns even have a frame and a trigger, but are used with an air pressure regulator that pushes the product from the tube the use of air pressure as a substitute of a rod Newborn

Being a female with smaller hands makes a lot of tools harder to use and I have always hated corking guns. The cheap ones even the not so cheap ones from hd. I purchased a battery operated one a few years back and for the life of me we can’t find it. So having a somewhat emergency need for a corking gun I found one that had next day delivery. I needed to do outside work before the weather got bad.
This has to be the easiest one I have ever used! It came on time and I should mention I used it for construction adhesive—so totally off label. Took a chance and it worked out great.
