The Soft Grip Safety Air Gun is a blow gun which is in stock for immediate shipping and has a durable cast aluminum body that is suited for rugged industrial use. The ergonomic design has a large trigger and a soft, comfortable grip for easy operation and keeps the hand in a comfortable position for extended periods of use. A convenient hook hanger allows for easy storage when not in use. Aluminum Extensions (up to 72″ long) and Stay Set Hoses (up to 36″ long ) can be fitted, providing access to hard-to-reach places. Chip Shields are available for most models, protecting operators from flying debris, helping to meet an important part of OSHA’s requirements for the safe use of compressed air, OSHA Standard 1910.242(b).
The Soft Grip Safety Air Gun can be configured with dozens of nozzle options, air consumption as low as 2.5 SCFM @ 80 PSIG of supply pressure and up to 60 SCFM if needed. Nozzle materials include Zinc Aluminum alloy, Stainless Steel, and PEEK thermoplastic as well as forward blowing or back blow nozzle options.
Using any of EXAIR’s Safety Air Guns with an Engineered Air Nozzle will provide safe and efficient use of compressed air, reduce energy costs, and eliminate harmful dead-end pressures (again, helping to comply with the OSHA standard for safe use of compressed air) when compared to standard commercial air blow guns, open pipes, and other homemade attempts to use compressed air efficiently and effectively.
When outfitted with EXAIR’s engineered air nozzles, the Soft Grip Safety Air Gun is a powerful ally to reduce personnel noise exposure and protect them from noise-induced hearing loss. This is another important safety feature complying with OSHA’s standard 29 CFR-1910.95(a). Lowering the ambient noise level also helps to improve operator satisfaction of their working environment.
The Soft Grip Safety Air Gun can be configured to meet applications from delicate blowoff of electronic circuit boards to large chip removal in metal cutting operations, and everything in between.
