TurboBlast® Safety Air Guns are extraordinary, ergonomic guns which produce very high airflow and force up to 23 pounds. A soft grip houses a one finger, button trigger which activates a powerful airflow. A gate valve is available to allow for on-the-fly airflow adjustment when less or more airflow is demanded from the application. The rugged cast aluminum handle is surrounded by an over-molded soft, yet rugged elastomer grip which is also UV and chemical resistant. The handle houses a low-profile trigger button, which keeps the trigger protected if dropped. An automatic air shut-off mechanism will engage if the TurboBlast is let go of or dropped, preventing injury to operators. This trigger needs just a slight amount of squeeze to activate the nozzles to remove stubborn debris, slag, flash or liquids from many harsh processes. Base models include the 1' (304.8mm) extension, but can also be ordered with a 3' (914mm) or 6' (1829mm) extension. Nozzle guards are included for all models. These versions include the gate valve as well.
