PU Foam Guns
Ten PU foam guns from a 125 g plastic body to a chrome-plated metal gun, with PTFE-coated and standard barrels
Window And Door Manufacturing
Glazing, perimeter foaming and gap filling for window and door plants and installers
A window passes through two sealing operations: the glazing bead in the factory and the perimeter seal on site. Both are repetitive, both are visible when done badly, and both are done faster with the right gun. We supply the tools for each end of that process.
Industry pain points
What Goes Wrong In This Trade
Factory Glazing At Volume
In a fabrication shop the gun is used hundreds of times a day, so trigger effort becomes a labour cost. Where shop air is available the pneumatic JS8625 models remove it; where it is not, a nine-bearing sausage gun is the next best answer.
Perimeter Foam That Distorts The Frame
Over-expanding foam bows a frame and the window no longer closes. Adjustable output on the metal-bodied foam guns lets the operator dial the flow down for a narrow gap instead of controlling it by trigger feel.
Foam Guns Lost To Cured Foam
On an installation crew a foam gun is a consumable unless the barrel is coated. JS8621-D is PTFE coated inside and out, and the tightening tail plug slows curing inside the barrel between jobs.
Filling Gaps Too Wide For Sealant
Window and door gaps, engineering project seams and floor cracks are named uses for the JS8614 mortar pointing guns, which fill a joint too wide to be economic with cartridge product.
What buyers need
What This Trade Actually Asks For
- Repeatable output on a production line, not operator-dependent beads
- Controllable foam flow so expansion does not move the frame
- Guns that survive a crew that will not flush them
- A single supplier covering glazing, foaming and gap filling

Where Most Buyers In This Trade Start
How we work with you
From Enquiry To Repeat Order
Split Factory From Site
Shop operations and installation crews need different tools. We quote them separately rather than sending one model for both.
Check The Air Supply
If the plant has shop air, the pneumatic JS8625 range is the cheapest route to consistent output. If not, we go to battery or high-bearing manual.
Choose The Foam Gun Tier
Plastic bodies for occasional use, metal bodies with adjustable output for daily use, PTFE coated where cleaning discipline is unreliable.
Sample On Your Own Products
Samples are sent so the shop can test with the actual sealant and foam canister it buys.
Standardise And Reorder
Once the models are fixed, colour, logo and carton stay the same on every reorder.

Guides For This Trade
How To Read Caulking Gun Force Ratings
Push force, maximum tolerance and drive ratio describe three different things. Confusing them is the most common reason a gun fails in the field.
Cartridge Or Sausage Which Sealant Gun To Stock
Sausage packs cut cost per litre and packaging waste; cartridges are simpler and universally stocked. The right answer depends on who your customer is.
Choosing A Two-Component Gun By Mix Ratio
The ratio is built into the gun's linkage, so a 1:1 gun cannot dispense a 1:4 product. Match the gun to the cartridge, every time.
FAQ
Window And Door Manufacturing Questions
Which foam gun for an installation crew?
JS8621-D if cleaning discipline is a problem, because the PTFE coating stops foam adhering to the barrel. JS8621-E if you want a chrome-plated metal gun with adjustable output at 210 g.
Do you have a gun for a production line with shop air?
The JS8625 pneumatic range, in 9, 15 and 18 inch. Output is set on the gun's regulating valve, so every unit gets the same bead regardless of who is operating.
What fills a gap that is too wide for cartridge sealant?
Either PU foam from a canister gun, or cement mortar through a JS8614 pointing gun. Window and door gap filling is a named application for the JS8614-2.
Can we get our own brand on the guns we supply with our windows?
Yes. Logo printing, laser engraving, handle colour and carton design are all part of the OEM programme. Minimum order is typically 2,000 pieces for a customised version.
Will the foam guns fit the canisters we already buy?
They use the standard threaded canister fitting. If your canister supplier uses a non-standard thread, send the specification and we will confirm compatibility before you order.
