A Guide to Blasting Nozzle Selection Choosing the right blast nozzle for each application is simply a matter of understanding the variables that affect cleaning performance and job costs.There are four basic questions to answer for optimum cost/performance. 1.) What blast pattern do you want? A nozzle's bore shape determines its blast pattern. Nozzles generally have either a straight bore or a restricted venturi bore. Straight Bore nozzles (Figure 1, Number 1) create a tight blast pattern for spot blasting or blast cabinet work.These are best for smaller jobs such as parts cleaning, weld...

Figure 2. Nozzle performance comparison Wide throat nozzles (Figure 1, Number 5) feature a large entry throat and a large, diverging exit bore.When matched with the same sized hose they can provide a 15% increase in productivity over nozzles with a smaller throat.When wide throat nozzles also feature a larger diverging exit bore (e.g., BAZOOKA® nozzle),they can be used at higher pressures to yield up to a 60% larger pattern with lower abrasive use. It's also a good idea to have angle nozzles available for tight spots like bridge lattice, behind flanges,or inside pipes.Many operators waste...

Nozzle Air and Pressure Requirements Chart This table is to be used as reference only. A ctual results may vary depending on specific abrasive medium used. This table is based on abrasive with a bulk density of 100 pounds per cubic foot.

Bore Size and Nozzle Materials 3.) What bore size do you need? For maximum productivity, select the nozzle bore size based on the desired blast pressure and the available air pressure and flow. For example,assume you are running addition to the blast cleaning nozzle, the compressor is supplying air to an air helmet and other components such as air motors and pneumatic controls, leaving 250 cfm available for the nozzle. Referring to the chart on the previous page,you can see that 250 cfm is sufficient for a 7/16" nozzle operating at 100 psi.A larger nozzle, or a worn 7/16" nozzle, will...

Want to cut nozzle replacement costs Try a boron carbide replacement nozzle from Kennametal. Boron carbide replacements cost more initially, but provide you with much longer service life. Your per-hour cost with boron carbide is about one-third of the cost of cheaper How to get the most service life out of your Kennametal nozzles 1. Avoid dropping the nozzle or banging it against anything. Nozzle materials can break. 2. Be sure to use a nozzle designed washer supplied with your nozzle or nozzle insert. It can help prevent the nozzle's entry throat from being blasted away. Inspect and...

Venturi Nozzles Long venturi style nozzles yield about a 40% greater production rate than straight bore nozzles. The internally tapered design of the venturi nozzle accelerates and evenly distributes the abrasive over the entire blast pattern.These nozzles are designed for use with a 1" I.D. blast hose for maximum cutting action on hard to clean surfaces. Tungsten carbide long venturi nozzles TLVE-Bruiser® Series tungsten carbide long venturi nozzles TLVE-P Series tungsten carbide long venturi nozzles Rubber washer For the most physically demanding operations and greatest resistance against...

TLVE-50mm AP Series tungsten carbide long venturi nozzles TheTLVE-50mm AP series is our metric size long venturi tungsten carbide nozzle. Built with polyurethane outer jacket and 50mm 2-4-1/2 UNC threads, it's competitive in price with "economy" nozzles without sacrificing the quality of a long-life tungsten carbide liner.
