Review on πŸ”„ COX 41004 2T 10 3oz Rotating Cartridge by Nick Cleary

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Made like a tank

This caulking gun is built like a tank. I don't use caulking guns very often, but I've still seen that when normal use is the right thing, none of them work in normal use. The length of the gun is 16 or 17 gauge steel with ABS support straps. A double layer of 12 gauge steel supports the working end of the canister. The handle parts are cast, including a beautiful "MADE IN ENGLAND" inscription. The ratchet mechanism consists of machined parts. When buying, be sure to lubricate the pivot points before use (there is a label on the piston rod to indicate where and how often to lubricate). This reduces noise levels and probably improves durability. The ride is very smooth, especially with proper lubrication. The 26:1 mechanical advantage is nice to have, but comes at the cost of speed. COX also produces models with less mechanical advantage.

Pros
