Menda 2 oz Yellow durAstatic ESD-Safe Flux Dispenser with 16 Gauge Needle – 35574
Apply liquid flux accurately while working around static-sensitive electronic components with this 2 oz yellow durAstatic dispensing bottle from Menda. Featuring a 16-gauge stainless steel needle, static-dissipative LDPE bottle, and conductive cap, this dispenser provides controlled liquid application for electronics assembly, soldering, printed circuit board repair, and precision maintenance.
The 16-gauge needle provides a larger dispensing opening than finer 18-, 20-, and 26-gauge tips. This allows compatible liquids to flow more easily, making the dispenser particularly useful when greater flow is needed or when a finer needle would restrict application.
Menda's durAstatic technology incorporates static-dissipative properties directly into the bottle material and conductive cap. Unlike containers that rely on temporary topical antistatic treatments, this construction provides long-lasting static-control properties without migratory additives or surfactants that can leave unwanted residue.
The stainless steel needle is attached through a secure Luer lock connection designed to help prevent leakage. The conductive black cap and yellow static-dissipative bottle create a practical dispensing assembly for ESD-controlled electronics workstations.
Silicone-free construction helps reduce the risk of unwanted contamination in sensitive manufacturing and repair environments. An embossed ESD protective symbol makes the bottle easy to identify among other workstation supplies.
With its compact 2 oz capacity, lightweight construction, and refillable design, this dispenser is convenient for regular use at soldering benches, PCB assembly stations, and electronics repair workstations.
Made in the United States, this genuine Menda dispenser combines controlled 16-gauge liquid application with durable construction and built-in ESD protection.

durAstatic ESD Protection
Menda's durAstatic technology provides static-dissipative performance through the material used to manufacture the bottle.
The ESD properties are incorporated into the LDPE bottle and conductive cap rather than applied as a temporary surface coating.
This helps provide long-lasting static-control performance while eliminating the need for migratory antistatic additives.
The bottle has a specified volume resistance of 1 × 10⁷ to less than 1 × 10¹⁰ ohms, tested according to ANSI/ESD STM11.12.
An embossed ESD protective symbol makes the dispenser easy to identify in static-control work areas.
16-Gauge Needle for Greater Liquid Flow
The 16-gauge stainless steel needle provides a larger opening than 18-, 20-, and 26-gauge tips.
This allows compatible liquids to flow more easily and can be helpful when a smaller needle opening would restrict dispensing.
The larger opening may also be useful with certain more viscous liquids, depending on their formulation and compatibility with the dispensing assembly.
For applications requiring extremely fine placement of small liquid quantities, a smaller needle gauge may provide greater control.
Secure Luer Lock Connection
The needle assembly features a Luer lock connection designed to keep the dispensing tip securely attached.
This helps reduce leakage at the connection during normal use.
The needle can be replaced with a compatible dispensing tip when necessary, allowing the bottle to remain in service.
Silicone-Free, Low-Contamination Construction
The bottle is manufactured without silicone or migratory antistatic additives.
Some topical antistatic treatments can migrate to the surface of a container, leaving residue that may be undesirable in sensitive electronics environments.
Menda's embedded durAstatic technology eliminates the need for these treatments.
This construction makes the dispenser particularly useful in electronics assembly and repair environments where clean handling practices are important.
Compact Yellow 2 oz Bottle
The bright yellow bottle provides easy visual identification among other dispensing containers.
Its 2 oz capacity is convenient for workstations where small amounts of flux are used throughout the day.
The cylindrical LDPE bottle is lightweight and durable, while its compact size makes it easy to keep alongside soldering tools, inspection equipment, and cleaning supplies.
The bottle is refillable with compatible liquids when properly cleaned and maintained.
Choosing the Right Needle Gauge
Menda offers durAstatic flux dispensers with several needle sizes for different application requirements.
-
16 Gauge: Larger opening for greater liquid flow.
-
18 Gauge: Smaller opening for more controlled dispensing.
-
20 Gauge: Finer opening for smaller quantities of liquid.
-
26 Gauge: Fine opening for detailed application of compatible low-viscosity liquids.
A lower gauge number indicates a larger needle diameter.
The best choice depends on the liquid's viscosity, desired flow rate, and application requirements.
Chemical Compatibility and Safe Use
This dispenser is intended for compatible liquid flux and other suitable dispensing fluids.
Chemical compatibility depends on the complete assembly, including the LDPE bottle, conductive cap, stainless steel needle, and polypropylene hub.
Always verify compatibility with the specific liquid before filling the dispenser.
Keep the needle clean and free from dried flux residue to maintain consistent liquid flow. Replace damaged or clogged needles with compatible replacement tips.
Follow the liquid manufacturer's safety instructions and use appropriate protective equipment.
The dispenser is supplied empty and does not include liquid flux.
