Failure to comply with ANY NOTICE listed below could pose a hazard to personnel or property.

See Air & Abrasive Consumption Chart for estimated abrasive consumption rates and required air flow
(cubic feet per minute). Your system must meet these minimum requirements to ensure proper function and
performance.

When it comes to air & abrasive mixtures, more is not necessarily better. Optimum abrasive blasting efficiency
takes place when a lean air & abrasive mixture is used. To correctly set the abrasive metering valve, begin
with the valve fully closed and slowly increase the amount of abrasive entering the airstream. As you increase
the abrasive flow, watch for a “blue flame” at the exit of the abrasive blasting nozzle. Faster cutting, reduced
abrasive consumption and lower clean up costs, are benefits of the “blue flame”.

Abrasive blasting at optimal pressure for the abrasive used is critical to productivity. Example: For an abrasive
with an optimal abrasive blasting pressure of 100 psi at the abrasive blasting nozzle, one pound per square inch
of pressure loss will reduce abrasive blasting efficiency by 1.5%. A 10 psi reduction in air pressure will cause a
15% loss of efficiency. Use a Needle Pressure Gauge to identify pressure drops in your system. Consult with
your abrasive supplier for the requirements of your abrasive.
*Abrasive consumption is based on abrasive with a bulk density of 100 lbs per Cubic Foot

Inspect abrasive
blasting nozzle before
placing into service.
Damage to abrasive
blasting nozzle liner
or jacket may occur
during shipping. If you
receive a damaged
abrasive blasting nozzle,
contact your distributor
immediately for
replacement. Abrasive
blasting nozzles placed
into service may not
be returned. Abrasive
blasting nozzle liners
are made of fragile
materials and can be
damaged by rough
handling and striking
against hard surfaces.
Never use a damaged
abrasive blasting nozzle.
Replace abrasive
blasting nozzle if liner
or jacket is cracked
or damaged. Replace
abrasive blasting nozzle
if original orifice size
has worn 1/16” or more.
Determine abrasive
blasting nozzle wear by
inserting a drill bit 1/16”
larger than original size
of abrasive blasting
nozzle orifice. If the
drill bit passes through
abrasive blasting nozzle,
replacement is needed.
