The COX M100 and COX M200 cartridge gun models have been discontinued. These two-component cartridge guns are used to dispense 200 mL and 400 mL cartridges in a 1:1 ratio for a wide range of applications.
For those manufacturers searching for a COX M100 or COX M200 cartridge gun, you may have noticed that they are becoming increasingly difficult to find as many distributors are no longer stocking them. There may be limited inventory available from some sellers as they look to get rid of their remaining warehouse supply, but overall, the cartridge guns have been phased out in favor of newer systems.
For users still operating these guns, the biggest concern is usually long-term support. Replacement parts may become harder to source as the products age out of the market. Fortunately, our team is sharing some viable alternatives to the COX M100 and M200 cartridge glue guns.
COX M100 & M200 Product Descriptions
The COX M100 is a manual, two-component cartridge gun used to dispense 200 mL cartridges in a 1:1 adhesive ratio. This cartridge gun model has an 18:1 thrust ratio that allows operators to more easily dispense low- to medium-viscosity materials without high levels of fatigue or discomfort. It is a wear-compensating device with fully replaceable components.
The COX M200 is another two-component cartridge gun for manual dispensing applications. The biggest difference between the COX M100 and the COX M200 adhesive guns is the cartridge size. While both are designed for 1:1 ratio dispensing, the COX M200 is made for 400 mL cartridges. The COX M200 cartridge glue gun also has a thrust ratio of 18:1 and is a wear-compensating device.
The two cartridge guns are commonly used in industrial dispensing applications with low- or medium-viscosity materials. Because they are manual models, they are not typically ideal for high-speed production settings.
COX™ Background
COX™ is a long-standing brand for adhesive dispensers, including manual, battery, and pneumatic models for adhesives, sealants, and two-component materials. The COX dispensing brand originated in the UK and became known globally for professional dispensing equipment. Over time, the company expanded its product offerings into industrial and specialty adhesive markets.
COX became part of Sulzer’s dispensing systems business and is now operated under medmix Switzerland AG, which manages the COX, MK™, and MIXPAC™ dispensing brands.
Alternatives to COX M100 and COX M200
Because the COX M100 and COX M200 two-component cartridge guns have been phased out of production, they are no longer readily available for purchase. For manufacturers looking to replace their existing guns, the discontinuation of the COX M100 manual cartridge gun and the M200 cartridge glue gun can be problematic.
Fortunately, there are alternatives to the COX M100 or M200 cartridge guns readily available for purchase. For a close replacement to the COX M100 or COX M200 guns, our team recommends the Infinity Bond Versa manual cartridge gun. This two-component cartridge gun is compatible with 200 mL, 400 mL, and 490 mL cartridges and works in 1:1, 2:1, 4:1, and 10:1 adhesive ratios. It is a manual gun with a side-loading frame for easy and accurate cartridge loading. The gun also features a twist and lock plunger system to easily change ratios.
If you are interested in bumping up your production or find your operators are experiencing fatigue or discomfort during dispensing, you may want to upgrade to a pneumatic cartridge gun. These air-powered guns are designed for higher-volume production needs. For a simple and easy-to-use model, our team recommends the Infinity Bond Versa pneumatic cartridge gun. This model is compatible with the same cartridge sizes and ratios as the manual model but uses an adjustable air regulator for a nominal thrust of 490 pounds at 100 psi. It also features an air dump valve to stop flow instantly as needed.
