A blast nozzle accelerates the air and abrasive as the mixture exits the end of the hose. The taper and length of the nozzle's inlet and outlet determine the pattern and velocity of the abrasive exiting the nozzle. The composition of the liner material determines its resistance to wear.

Quick Overview

Rugged and durable aluminum jacket.
Tungsten carbide is the most rugged and durable liner material and provides the best value.
Expected wear-life when blasting with expendable abrasives is approximately 300 hours.
TXD nozzles with large contractor threads eliminate galling or binding of the threads in the holder
CXD nozzles provide smooth transition from 1-1/4-inch blast hose to the 1-1/4-inch entry for users who prefer 1-1/4-inch fine thread nozzles.

Details

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.

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 is used, low blast pressure and rapid wear on the blast hose will occur. If too small a nozzle is used, smooth media flow will be difficult to achieve.
