| Product Type | SMT nozzle part |
| Nozzle Reference | 185 pad rubber |
| Pad Material | Rubber |

| Equipment Type | Pick and place machine nozzle part |
| Function | Component pick-up and placement |
| Supply Format | Replacement part; single unit or bulk quantities |
| Order Reference | The part number marked on the original nozzle |
The number to order against is the one marked on the nozzle you are replacing. Panasonic nozzle parts can look almost identical from the outside, and an industrial nozzle that appears to match the shape will not necessarily pick cleanly on your head — the reference decides the fit, not the appearance. If the marking has worn away, send a clear photo of the nozzle alongside your machine's model plate and we will work back to the right reference.
Fit a complete replacement nozzle part rather than trying to stretch the life of a tired one. Once the pad has hardened or deformed, placement quality drifts and the time lost to re-checks costs far more than the part itself. Keep the old nozzle until the new one has passed its first test run, so you have a fallback if the head needs further attention.
ZJ-SMT supplies Panasonic SMT and PCB assembly equipment and spare parts to manufacturers worldwide. Our range covers pick-and-place machines, axial and radial insertion equipment, solder paste inspection systems, and feeder spare parts, with both new and used options available. We support bulk orders, and machine condition and availability are confirmed with you before ordering. Whether you are expanding a line, replacing a worn feeder part, or sourcing equipment for a new project, send us your model numbers and our team will come back with a suitable solution and quotation.
This part is referenced for Panasonic SMT placement equipment, and nozzles are ordered by reference because the machine model alone does not always identify the nozzle fitted to a head. Send us your model, and ideally a photo of the nozzle you are replacing, and we will confirm the match before you commit to the order.
Compare the number printed on the nozzle with the part number shown for this nozzle first. If the marking has rubbed away, photograph the nozzle from two angles and include the machine's model plate in the shot; the shape of the pad and the holder give our team enough to work back to the right reference.
The pad. It is the surface that touches SMT components on every pick, so it hardens, flattens or loses its edge over a long production run, and grip becomes unreliable long before anything breaks. A head that starts missing picks is usually telling you the pad has passed its useful life, and the complete nozzle part should be replaced.
No — it is referenced for Panasonic equipment. Rubber pad nozzle parts are specific to the head and holder they were designed for, so this part will not simply drop into another brand's machine. Tell us which model you run and we will check what fits; our range covers equipment from several pick and place machine manufacturers, so a mixed floor can usually be supplied from one place.
Keep them in their original packaging until they are needed, in a dry, dust-free drawer away from direct sunlight. The rubber pad is the vulnerable part: nozzles rolling around loose with tools or feeders can be nicked or deformed, and a damaged pad will not pick cleanly even when the body looks perfect.
It depends on how many heads you run, how many nozzle references are fitted, and how long your shifts are. A common approach on an SMT floor is one spare per nozzle reference in use, plus one in the maintenance kit, so a worn pad never holds up a changeover. High-mix plants often keep a slightly larger kit.
