Twist n' Grout

The Twist n' Grout is used with a bag having two openings, such as a cone-shaped bag used to dispense mortar. The tool seals one opening and assists in forcing flowable substance out of the bag by twisting. The Twist n' Grout provides a better method for applying a constant pressure to the bag, thereby forcing the mortar out in a continuous flow. Over five years of research and development by masons went into making Twist n' Grout a tool that will make every mason's work easier. For more information, call (860) 668-7602, or visit www.twistngrout.com.
