Air cap for hexagonal nozzle
The air cap for hexagonal nozzles is the
most frequently used air cap type. The air
cap is used for different water-based paints,
solvent-based paints and colors.
The air cap for hexagonal nozzles has two
different versions:
For a spray jet angle from 10 to 30°
For spray jet angle from 40 to 130°
A label on the air cap identifies the type of
version.
Air cap for circular nozzles
The air cap for round nozzles is used for
clear coats and quick drying coating mate-
rials. It has slit air ducts for the horn air.
