FluxuatorDual Head Flux applicator

I’m a heating engineer and have been for thirty years and I must admit I was a little sceptical about this when I first saw one on YouTube but I decided to give it a try, when it arrived I opened it and thought ok it’s plastic, no surprise there as most things are these are these days but to be honest it’s pretty robust and this was tested almost immediately as it slipped out of my hand onto a tiled floor and it survived with no damage whatsoever, not even a scratch, this is promising I thought, I was pleasantly surprised it came with flux as well, how good it was remained to be seen, as I am in the process of improving and upgrading my heating system I set to work with my new gadget and I’m over the moon with it, the flux seems great and the most important thing is it’s convenient and extremely clean with no mess at all and when finished with a handy cap to keep the unused flux clean from contamination in my tool bag, the supplied brush is a little chintzy but so far it’s working fine, great tool and and worth a punt 👍😎

A great gadget, it makes your work easier and faster

Loved this when I saw it and now I've used it I'm hooked. I'd seen this product before on various plumbing videos and thought how easy it looked to use. I know looks can deceive but I absolutely can back this up, its easy and clean to use. The only thing is I haven't refilled it yet.........watch this space!!!!

Bought this a while ago and just reordered a new one. So much cleaner and easier than having a pot and a brush but also, I’ve cleaned my old one out and. Now I’ve put pipe sealing paste In it and it works an absolute treat on nut and olives (As long as it’s not too thick of a paste) Robust and clean. Very much worth it. You can buy it once or twice and then refill it with your own preferred flux and or jointing compound. And it works great regardless of what’s in it! Impressed.

Love this no waste ,no mess and no cross contamination

Been soldering for 40 years (yes really) and scoffed at this when it was I think on dragons den. Intrigue however go the better of me and I decided to recently purchase one. Its is very easy to use and does indeed apply flux at a sufficient rate. Its neat and easy to store and pick up fro your kit and gets into most places. The big issue is its contents. I see others have agreed the fix is not great. Unless you clean anything but brand new pipe the solder does not run. I use Laco flux which is very forgiving so am aware of the difference on identical pipe. There is no instructions on how to re-fill the unit once empty so are you expected to throw it away ? I think the unit would be better to be sold empty and modified to allow you to somehow fill it with your own flux which I shall attempt soon.

Works fine binned the flux and replaced with paste

You have to slightly twist and turn to get full coverage and silicone bristles need slightly longer or alternate silicone and brush type bristles for better coverage.
