Product Overview

The Krautzberger M 18 automatic spray apparatus features a compact design with generously sized air channels and a one-piece stainless steel head. It is available with the Krautzberger HVLP system and includes a new air distribution ring for improved spray patterns. The device is designed for easy maintenance with fewer individual parts and supports fully automatic operation with separate flat and round spray air. Extensions from the XLINE series (M 18v) can be attached, and multiple spray types are supported, including round, flat, rotary, full cone rotary, and HVLP sprays. The main body is anodized titanium gray for easier cleaning.
