Sausage Caulking gun piston/pusher 600g 20oz

thingiverse

Hi Folks, Back again with another Tinkercad design - A Sausage Caulking Gun piston/pusher to suit Sika (SikaFlex), Selleys, Albion and other 600g / 20oz sausage caulk dispensers. The problem I had was that the plastic piston/pusher that comes with the dispensing gun was often chewing up my sausages - the sausage foil was either getting stuck between the pusher and the wall of the caulking gun, or was deforming and tearing up/piercing the rear of the sausage - this led to a big mess inside the gun, wasted material and lots of wasted time cleaning everything up. So I decided to design a better alternative that could not flex within the tube. I printed this with 100% infill, as there is a fair bit of pressure on the pusher. In my photos you'll see that I added a metal washer between the rear bolt and the piston - this is optional. The part on Tinkercad can be found here: https://www.tinkercad.com/things/0WL9okmYdAO
