Cfm range is based on blasting at 100 psi for the life of the nozzle. Blast machine capacity should allow 20 to 30 minutes of blasting. Hose ID should be three to four times the size of the nozzle orifice.

N/A Short-venturi nozzles (TJP, TYP) designed for blasting 12 to 18 inches away from the surface. Long-venturi nozzles (TSP, TMP, TXP) allow high production blasting at a distance of 18 to 24 inches for hard to- clean surfaces, and 30 to 36 inches for loose paint and soft surfaces Expected life with expendable abrasives is approximately 300 hours Durable natural rubber jacket 1 inch entry provides smooth transition and maximum productivity with 1 inch ID blast hose 1 1/4 inch entry ensures maximum productivity with 1 1/4 inch ID blast hose

N/A Nozzles are sized by the diameter of their orifices in 1/16-inch increments. A No. 2 nozzle has a 2/16-inch (1/8-inch) orifice, a No. 3 nozzle has a 3/16-inch orifice, etc. The size of the nozzle orifice determines abrasive and air consumption. Air consumption is measured in cubic feet per minute (cfm) at a given pressure. See the air and abrasive consumption chart. When choosing a nozzle, consider the amount of available air in cfm, the capacity of the blast machine and the inside diameter of the piping, and the blast and air hoses. For optimal performance, these elements must be compatibly sized.If too large a nozzle for the compressor is used, low blast pressure will occur. If too large a nozzle for the blast hose is used, rapid wear on the blast hose will occur. If too small a nozzle is used, smooth media flow will be difficult to achieve.
