<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nA deep tissue massage gun can help your targeted muscle. Massage guns are used more for hyper-targeted pain points, sore muscles, and recovery. If there is one area you are trying to target, a deep-tissue percussion massage gun could be better than a foam roller. The percussive therapy provided by the deep tissue massage gun will not only help to relax the tight muscles or trigger points after exercise but also will increase blood flow in the percussion areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A vibrating foam roller can be great for pre-workouts to increase the range of motion and potentially prevent injury. If you don\u2019t want to pay too much for relaxed muscles, general self-massage, and myofascial release, it’s hard to beat a foam roller.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Today, I’d like to share with you one of the most commonly used massage tools — massage guns. A compact massage gun is made of many different materials. There are some common massage guns in the market such as ABS Plastic\/PC+ABS\/aluminum alloy\/Metal+Plastic massage guns. And it is uneasy to know which kind of massage gun is helpful to your practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The right material for the vibration therapy massage gun is asked to be comfortable when used, and easy to clean and maintain, safety and durability are also needed. Then how to choose a suitable massage gun for ourselves, what are the differences among the different materials of massage guns? <\/p>\n\n\n\n As a\u00a0massage gun manufacturer<\/a>, we will make a full analysis and comparison of the advantages and disadvantages of different massage gun materials for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A Percussion massage gun mainly uses its special high-speed motor to drive different massage heads, which generates high-frequency vibration in the process of contact with our body to affect the deep muscle tissue and improve blood flow. In addition, massage guns will decrease lactic acid, help relieve muscle pain and relax tight muscles after a tension workout. Deep tissue massager can stretch the fascia and help us maintain a better exercise state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The material of the percussion massager is one of the important factors in choosing a massage gun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Different materials of the percussion massager will affect the use effect of the deep tissue massage gun, the environmental performance of the massage gun, the recyclability of the massage gun, the complexity of cleaning, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ABS material is Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene copolymer, it is a polymer artificial board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It is relatively inexpensive and lightweight. It collects the attributes like wear resistance, oil resistance, impact resistance, and other excellent properties. ABS material is an ideal material for boards making industry due to its great hardness, sound impact resistance, good scratch resistance, etc. Besides, it is also anti-moisture, anti-corrosion, easy to process, and has other characteristics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ABS material is a very environmentally friendly material, because of the use of environmentally friendly chemicals, there is no toxicity and no odor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n lightweight<\/p>\n\n\n\n medium heat resistance<\/p>\n\n\n\n high hardness<\/p>\n\n\n\n strong pressure resistance<\/p>\n\n\n\n wear-resistant<\/p>\n\n\n\n medium impact strength<\/p>\n\n\n\n sound elasticity<\/p>\n\n\n\n lower price<\/p>\n\n\n\n chemical corrosion resistance such as acid and alkali<\/p>\n\n\n\n processing and molding are easy<\/p>\n\n\n\n easy to paint and glue<\/p>\n\n\n\n great electrical insulation properties<\/p>\n\n\n\n can\u2019t withstand high-intensity impact<\/p>\n\n\n\n hazardous when burned<\/p>\n\n\n\n PC-ABS is a blend of the two polymers – polycarbonate (PC) and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) – and it includes the benefits (and limitations) of both thermoplastics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Like ABS plastic, it is relatively inexpensive and lightweight. And it also has the advantage of chemical corrosion resistance such as acid and alkali.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In addition, PC-ABS does not have the weaknesses of ABS, mainly heat intolerance. It is also generally stronger and easier to machine than ABS and provides higher impact resistance. In general, PC-ABS is up to 60% stronger than ABS in specific blends, having higher overall mechanical properties in most categories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n PC-ABS is more environmentally friendly than pure ABS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n more durable<\/p>\n\n\n\n lightweight<\/p>\n\n\n\n higher heat resistance<\/p>\n\n\n\n toughness and high-impact strength<\/p>\n\n\n\n much tougher<\/p>\n\n\n\n chemical corrosion resistance such as acid and alkali<\/p>\n\n\n\n excellent processability and appearance<\/p>\n\n\n\n low dielectric strength (not a good insulator)<\/p>\n\n\n\n An aluminum alloy is an alloy in which aluminum (Al) is the predominant metal. The typical alloying elements are copper, magnesium, manganese, silicon, tin, nickel, and zinc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Besides looking and feeling more premium than ABS and PC-ABS, aluminum is more durable and better at conducting heat. But this is a mixed bag. When the internal components of the massage gun aren’t generating a lot of hot air, aluminum alloy feels cool to the touch. However, if the inside of an aluminum alloy massager lacks proper insulation or airflow to direct heat away from its skin, the outside feels much hotter than ABS and PC-ABS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Known as green metal, aluminum is one of the most environmentally friendly metals because of its sustainability. And many aluminum alloys are environmentally friendly as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n more durable<\/p>\n\n\n\n lightweight<\/p>\n\n\n\n looking and feeling more premium than plastic<\/p>\n\n\n\n better heat dissipation<\/p>\n\n\n\n sound insulation<\/p>\n\n\n\n drop resistance<\/p>\n\n\n\n chemical corrosion resistance such as acid and alkali<\/p>\n\n\n\n expensive<\/p>\n\n\n\n easy to stick mold<\/p>\n\n\n\n Different sizes of massage guns have different usages, and they suit people of different heights, weights, and strengths. Generally speaking, the big one will be more powerful, so it can help speed up your recovery because the massage gun strikes deep into your muscle tissues. The smaller the massage gun is, the easier to carry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We need to choose the size according to our specific situations of ourselves. Such as how long have you been starting exercising. If you do sports for a long time and have strong muscles, wanting to deep into the sore muscles, we suggest you choose the bigger one, as it can help to relax better. Because a bigger and more professional massage gun can be equipped with a bigger and stronger motor. If you seldom exercise and are not very strong, the mini massage gun can meet your requirements. Because you might not be able to handle a big professional massage gun. They’re like monsters. Some customers said that they love our D1 deep tissue massage gun very much. Not only is the special design of its removable battery pack, but also its power is popular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n How to choose the size of the massage gun is depend on your aim, each size has its usage and advantage. Therefore, it is very important to confirm your target before you choose a massage gun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Besides the shell material of the percussion massage gun, we also noted the head attachments\u2019 material and stability. There are three main materials of the head attachments, ABS plastic, EVA foam, and silicone. The stability of a few attachments is not very good. They popped out mid-massage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Considering comfort: silica gel> EVA> hard plastic. The silicone material is the most comfortable, especially the all-silicone massage head, just like the silicone rubber duck that children usually play with, which feels softer, more elastic, and more wear-resistant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ABS plastic material is relatively hard and is mostly used for bullet heads, U-shaped heads, and other massage heads with low frequency of use. They are suitable for direct hitting of pain points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n EVA foam massage heads are ideal for shock-absorbing elastomer applications. This environmentally friendly material is close to the skin, odorless has no harmful substances, and is safe to use. But EVA is foam, and the pores on the surface are easy to absorb sweat and absorb dandruff, which is difficult to clean after long use. It is not recommended to contact the skin directly after sweating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The advantages of all silicone are skin-friendly, soft, highly elastic, and wear-resistant, and it will be clean after washing. The silicone massage gun head is the most comfortable and softest among all the massage head attachments. So they are perfect for the elderly and fragile parts of the human body. The flat head is often made of silicone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It is noteworthy that some of these materials (including both EVA foam and silicone) wear out faster than others, so you\u2019ll also want to consider the durability of the head attachments. The good news is that most suppliers offer replacement head attachments for a small charge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Finally, different heavy-duty massage guns are equipped with different numbers of massage heads. Most massage guns will be equipped with four massage heads. But some of our massage guns will be equipped with eight massage heads, such as our Y8 deep tissue percussion massager.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Most massage guns are made with high-grade plastic, including premium designs like the Hypervolt 2 Pro<\/a> and Theragun Pro, and MAXTORC. You\u2019ll often get a nice rubberized grip at the handle, and massage head attachments are generally designed with EVA foam or ABS plastic or silicone. Finally, it\u2019s common to see a lot of motorized parts made with metal to provide longevity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/maxtorc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/17-1024x451.jpg\")
