Fine thread & coarse thread aluminum & rubber jacket sandblasting nozzle
Boron carbide nozzles offer the longest wear life of any standard nozzle material.
Peak nozzle production performance is maintained for longer periods with optimum consumption of air and abrasive.
Boron carbide nozzles typically outwear tungsten carbide nozzles by five to ten times and silicon carbide by two to three times. Boron carbide nozzles are recommended for use with abrasives such as aluminum oxide and aggressive mineral aggregates.
