AWF PRO Heavy Duty Caulk Gun, 18:1 Thrust Ratio, Steel Frame Construction, Rotating Barrel, Ladder Hook, Puncture Tool & Dripless Pressure Release Tab (Pack of 1, 29 oz Caulking Gun)

My regular caulk gun failed to pump Loctite Power Grip Ultimate Adhesive even with a two-handed grip. I was really impressed with the AWF Pro caulk gun that easily pumped the adhesive using just two fingers. I had returned the first tube of Loctite thinking that it had passed its shelf life when it really was the fault of my cheap caulk gun. It made my day when you find a tool that works really well!

I have at least three caulk guns loaded at any time in my shop; phenoseal in one, PL adhesive and vinyl for patching on the quick. Most are stamped steel of various gauges. The older ones are typically heavier, I have one that belonged to family members now gone that are tougher but lack the nozzle cutter and seal piercing rod which is darn handy.They all have nooks and crannies that are hard to clean if you have a tube blow out or over goop on the plunger or into the thrusting mechanism. The ones with a ratchet tends to break and clog more often.This one has an open design of heavier stamped steel for the spout end and the frame where the tube goes in which is two rails versus a 'pouch'. It's assembled to a heavy cast aluminum handle end that should hold up even with slightly solidified goop. I take old caulk that I want to use and put it in a plastic shopping bag and immerse it in warm water to soften it up before use. I keep a slow cooker around we broke the glass lid on that I used for heating all kinds of things.Instead of the ratchet rod this uses the smooth rod with a link that slides and grabs the rod to plunge the goop.I like this one. it's painted well and industrial like. It's okay to have a favorite caulking gun. It makes us aware of quality, makes us feel alive and that all is well with the world.

One of the best if not the best caulk gun I ever used! Smooth and precise trigger, lightweight, you will not regret buying it.

Quality build and smooth action. Puncture needle is too short though.

Been a contractor for over 40 years.This glue gun is much-much better for my old hands!My old glue guns are officially obsolete...

I’ve been frustrated with caulk guns sold at home improvement stores for years. Impulsively bought an even cheaper one I saw at Harbor Freight and it kept slipping when I pulled the trigger—never even got it to dispense. Figured there had to be a better option online. Found this. Worth every penny. This is industrial grade. Twice the price of my Home Depot/Lowes guns, but ten times the quality. Felt the difference pulling it out of the bag. I’ll be buying more. I’ve only written a handful of reviews in my life. That’s how much this exceeded my expectations.

Very easy to control the flow with little effort
