ABSTRACT:
An adhesive applicator device including an elongated shaft x-shaped in section formed by the intersection of a pair of webs at a right angle. The webs have tapered end edges, so that the shaft is characterized in having a point at one end thereof where the tapered edges of the webs converge. Each web has a plurality of spaced V-shaped notches therein. The notches extend into the web in the direction of the tapered end edges, with the innermost portion of each notch nearer to the tapered edge of the web than to the opening of the respective notch. At the end of the shaft opposite its pointed end, the shaft is secured to a mounting plate. Pressed over the shaft by extension of the intersecting webs into a slot of x-shaped cross section formed therein is a cylindrical applicator pad formed of a cellular porous resilient material.
The method of the invention comprises absorbing adhesive in the open cells of the resilient applicator pad, then moving the pad in a circular movement, without rotating it about its longitudinal axis, around the end of a pipe, or fitting, so that adhesive is transferred from the pad to the external or internal surface of the pipe or internal surface of the fitting. The pipe or fitting is retained stationary during adhesive application.
