Product Description
Product Description
The Dripless ETS2000 Industrial Grade caulking gun has a lightweight composite revolving frame that fits 10 oz. cartridges and has a 12:1 thrust ratio for use with latex, acrylic, and silicone. The revolving frame allows the barrel to rotate for maintaining the same bead orientation when caulking around corners. A spout cutter is 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.
Caulking guns, also called caulk or cartridge guns, dispense a controlled 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 also have a frame and a trigger, but are used with an air pressure regulator that pushes the product from the tube using air pressure instead of a rod.
Dripless, Inc. manufactures caulking guns and caulking and painting accessories. The company, founded in 1992, is headquartered in Santa Rosa, CA.
From the Manufacturer
This contractor ergo composite caulk gun is engineered to provide superior performance due to its many enhanced features including a precision cutter with a viewing port to check the angle of the cut, an extra-long clean out rod that snaps in place when not in use and a rotating barrel for corners and hard-to-reach places. Reduces stress in hand and arm. The rugged composite construction weighs up to 40-percent less than other models. 12:1 ratio is recommended for acrylics, silicones, elastomeric, or latex. The ironic grip has been designed to keep the wrist in a natural and balanced position. Available in 10-ounce cartridge.

Not only is this thing built for the duration, it's the smoothest, easiest to use, caulk gun I've worked with. The rod is smooth and chromed and uses a soft "o-ring" to keep tension. This is super smooth, holds great, and really makes it easy to load/unload the gun. The whole catridege section rotates freely, so you can clock the tip appropriately without needing to change the orientation of your grip.
In this price range, I wouldn't recommend anything else.
The barrel (yellow part) turns a full 360 with no stops. This could be handy to turn the tube but the caulk tube I used spun inside the barrel without needing to turn the yellow. The back of the handle where your palm goes has some rubber coating. On the left side there is a tube nozzle cutter and on the right side there is metal rod used to punch out the tube down inside the fresh cut nozzle. This punch (don’t know the real term for it) folds down and locks in place. To load it you simply pull the handle / thick metal rod stick out the back. This requires more force than that of the cheapo ones. Maybe five pounds of force. There is no lever to release like the cheapo ones. There is a rubber friction washer that allows tension to remain on the rod but you can push it back with some force. This allows the rod to slip backwards when you release the trigger easing the pressure inside the tube and keeping all the contents from continually squirting out the nozzle. This rubber washer I feel could potentially be a wear item that gives way after a certain amount of time. That could be 5 years or even 10 in my case. Only time will tell. The motion that pushes the rod forward is not that rubber washer but a metal lever similar to the cheapo ones. So even if the rubber wears it should not affect the intended purpose of this item as when you release the trigger, pressure will be released.
When you squeeze there is good amount of force applied to the tube and when you release the trigger the pressure is released on the tube and therefor it stops dispensing which makes it drip-less. Obviously if you have some material hanging out it might drop off do to gravity. When using the gun in action this situation I would see happening. If you lightly squeeze the trigger and release you can actually see some of the caulk actually suck back onto the nozzle the pressure is released.
In my opinion this tool is money well spent. I caulked the base board on my stairwell (both sides) without a towel and there was absolutely nothing on the carpet. The only cleanup was the tip of my finger from smoothing the caulk out in the crease.
See the video (yes, I mistakenly say the comparison gun is 10, then 6 then 4. As of this post the cheapo guns run 2.77 at Home Depot)
