SPLN Special Long Nozzle
In the 1950s, for the first time in the world - the aluminium ophthalmic nozzle tube was developed. These replaced tin tubes throughout the world and reduced the cost to 20%.
Today, the Long Nozzle is used for adhesives and the Special Long Nozzle is used for pharmaceutical products, such as eye ointments and surgical adhesives.

Aluminum Tube Selectors Guide
If your product is semi-solid, you'll need to know the specific gravity - the relationship of product weight to water. The volume of the tube is shown in fluid capacity, both ounces and cc's.
Here's a formula to help you with the conversion
1 Fluid oz. = 29.574 cc., 8 fluid drams
1 Fluid oz. of specific gravity 1.0 weighs 1.04 oz. avoirdupois
1 cc. of specific gravity 1.0 weighs 1 gram
1 lbs. = 453.59 grams
1oz. avoirdupois = 28.349 grams
Example: To find tube size for 2 oz. avoirdupois with a specific gravity of 0.85
Typical Fluid Capacities
The following gives you the fluid contents: |
Consult the chart below and to the right. You may select either a 1 x 6" or a 1 1/8 x 5 1/2" tube.
All tube lengths may be adjusted to perfectly contain your product.
