Question 1

how many ounces or cc can this hold?

Accepted Answer

Thank you for your inquiry. This item carries 1/2 ounce of liquid. If you have any additional questions or comments please feel free to contact us.

Question 2

Can anyone tell me what the diameter of it is?  Is the hole at the end very large - for example, could it handle an ointment or just a liquid? Thanks.

Accepted Answer

The diameter of the actual tube itself is ruffly .5 inches. The actual hole that the liquid squirts out of is like 4 millimeters.  It can hold about .5oz of liquid at a time. I'm certaint it can hold and push out an ointment. But you will most likely have to stuff it in the tube with the applicator handle.

Question 3

Is this applicator reusable?

Accepted Answer

Yes it is reusable. You may have to just load a little water in and back out of it to wet the rubber seal of the plunger but then the lube should keep it sealed to load the lube. If you are using a quality lube, a little lube goes a long way so only load about 1 inch in the tube to begin with and adjust up or down from there.

Question 4

Can this use silicon lubes or only water-based lubes?  Will it react to silicon lubes?

Accepted Answer

I use it with silicone lube. The rubbery part on the top of the launcher comes off or breaks off much easier. I bought another brand, gray in color and the end disintegrated on it. 
   I had one where the plastic tab that it is attached broke off too and the end was intact. I put it back on with Super Glue (Locktite) and let the glue set for 24 hours. It is still working now. I use the same different barrels when I clean one every week or so unless it get dirty inside. 
   Lining up the rubbery end with the glue and making it perfect so it works in the barrel was hardest.
