Technical Performance
The Sweep Glue Extension Nozzles and Silicone Tubes are engineered with practical simplicity in mind, focusing on delivering reliable performance for adhesive application in RC and modelling work. The extension nozzles are designed to fit onto standard glue bottles, allowing you to direct your adhesive with precision into areas that would otherwise be difficult to reach. The silicone tubes provide flexible tubing that works in conjunction with the nozzles, allowing for controlled dispensing and multiple application methods depending on your specific task. The materials used in construction are chosen for durability and compatibility with common adhesives used in RC car UK projects, scale modelling and craft work. Each set includes 5 nozzles and 5 tubes, providing genuine value and ensuring you have backups when nozzles become clogged or tubes need replacing. The engineering behind these components reflects Sweep Racing's commitment to supporting RC enthusiasts with practical, high-quality accessories that enhance the building and assembly experience without unnecessary complexity or inflated costs.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What adhesives can I use with the Sweep Glue Extension Nozzles? — These nozzles and silicone tubes are compatible with most standard adhesives used in RC and modelling work, including superglues and other common hobby adhesives. Always check that your specific adhesive brand is suitable for use with silicone tubes before use.
- Why would I need extension nozzles for my RC car UK build? — When assembling RC cars, buggies, trucks and other scale models, you'll often encounter tight spaces, internal joints and detailed areas where a standard bottle nozzle simply won't fit. Extension nozzles allow you to apply glue precisely into these confined areas, ensuring clean joints and professional-looking results without accidentally applying adhesive to surrounding components.
- How many times can I reuse each nozzle and tube? — With proper care, the nozzles can be reused multiple times. Once a nozzle becomes clogged with dried adhesive, simply soak it in appropriate solvent to clean it, or replace it with one of the spare nozzles included in the pack. The silicone tubes are similarly durable and can be cleaned and reused.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — Absolutely. These extension nozzles and silicone tubes are excellent for beginners because they make adhesive application easier and more controlled. Beginners often struggle with getting glue into the right spots without making a mess; these nozzles eliminate that problem by extending your reach and improving precision.
- What makes these better than using the bottle nozzle directly? — The key difference is reach and control. Standard bottle nozzles are short and often too wide to fit into tight spaces. These extension nozzles give you several inches of extended reach, allowing you to position the glue tip exactly where you need it, resulting in neater application, less wastage and a more professional finish on your RC models.
- How do I clean the extension nozzles? — If adhesive dries on a nozzle, soak it in an appropriate solvent such as acetone (for superglue) or the solvent recommended by your adhesive manufacturer. Once clean, the nozzles are ready for reuse. Having 5 nozzles in the pack means you can rotate them and always have a clean one available.
- Can I use these nozzles with different glue bottles? — Yes, these extension nozzles are designed to fit onto most standard hobby adhesive bottles. Simply remove the existing nozzle and attach an extension nozzle in its place. Make sure the diameter matches your bottle opening.
