Tungsten carbide Grit Blasting nozzle -UDLB-8BA

Description

OUR LONG, VENTURI, TUNGSTEN CARBIDE GRIT BLASTING NOZZLE HAS A 1/2″ BORE AND 1″  ENTRY. THIS TOUGH, GRIT BLASTING NOZZLE, IS FITTED WITH AN EZ GRIP THERMOPLASTIC JACKET AND WEAR RESISTANT BRASS ALLOY THREADS.

THREADS: 

 IF YOU ARE USING ALUMINUM NOZZLE HOLDERS THEN YOU SHOULD NOT USE A NOZZLE WITH ALUMINUM THREADS. THIS MAY CAUSE  THREADS ON BOTH  NOZZLE HOLDER AND BLAST NOZZLE TO SEIZE TOGETHER. THIS IS  CALLED METAL GALLING.  IT WILL BE NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO SEPARATE  A  NOZZLE FROM THE NOZZLE HOLDER, WITHOUT DAMAGE. USING A SANDBLASTING NOZZLE WITH BRASS THREADS  HELPS  AVOID THIS ISSUE.

AIR COMPRESSOR AND NOZZLE BORE:

TO ACHIEVE 100 psi OF PRESSURE AT THE NOZZLE YOU WILL NEED A COMPRESSOR CAPABLE OF PROVIDING  AT LEAST 338 CFM OF AIR).  IN REALITY YOU WILL NEED A COMPRESSOR WITH A HIGHER OUTPUT THAN THIS, AS THERE WILL BE ADDITIONAL CFM USED BY OTHER EQUIPMENT AND CFM LOSS.   A RULE OF THUMB IS THAT THE AIR COMPRESSOR SHOULD HAVE 50% MORE CFM OUTPUT THAN THE CFM REQUIRMENT OF BLAST NOZZLE THAT YOU PLAN TO USE. IN THE CASE OF A 1/2″ BORE NOZZLE, THIS WOULD BE 338 + 169 =  507 CFM. SO COMPRESSOR SHOULD BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING AT LEAST 500 CFM. ALSO REMEMBER AS NOZZLE BORE WEARS OUT, IN USE, YOU WILL NEED MORE CFM TO MAINTAIN THE SAME NOZZLE PRESSURE AS WHEN NOZZLE WAS NEW.

Looking for a high performance nozzle that will give you even more performance than a standard # 8? SEE OUR XLBC-8.
