Composite Carbide Sandblast Nozzle Tip to Outlast Tungsten Carbide & Boron Carbide

As many of you may know, I am a bit obsessed with long lasting nozzles. Before we produced a boron carbide nozzle which has since been improved to fix some issues. Now I have finally released a new composite carbide nozzle which is offered in the three most popular sizes:

• 1/16″ ID Bore: Smallest inner diameter known to produce narrow sandblast streams. These are favored by those that do shadeblasting art, etching glass with the photoresist stencil process for halftones or just to reduce the output on your compressor while blasting a fine grade abrasive grit.
• 3/32″ ID Bore: Probably one of the more popular sizes with sandblast etching or general use inside cabinets. This mid-size inner diameter is great for many abrasive grits and the perfect balance to handle light blasting to deep sandcarving.
• 1/8″ ID Bore: Largest inner diameter we offer that produces a larger volume output which is great for larger projects or sandcarving boulders. Size is more ideal for general sandblasting projects outside a cabinet such as car restoration environments.

Why Carbide Nozzles Are Important For Us Sandblasting Glass Artists

When I first started, I went the cheap route and used ceramic nozzles. But they were such a hassle and the quick wear which enlarged the inner diameter immediately puts a strain on your compressor and prevents you from having a strong output pressure. That lower output pressure also makes sandcarving take way too long!

Using a carbide nozzle is almost a necessity for us that sandblast glass because we use very hard abrasives such as aluminum oxide and silicon carbide. Carbide nozzles are the only type that will hold up when using these abrasives. When you do the math, carbide nozzles actually reduce your overall cost since the cost per hour is less than using ceramic nozzles.

So it is important to at least use one of the carbide types such as: Tungsten Carbide, Boron Carbide or a Composite Carbide.

Our Composite Carbide Sandblast Nozzle Tips vs. Tungsten & Boron Carbide

Generally, those are the three types of carbide sandblast nozzles. Tungsten carbide is least expensive and wears out the quickest. Boron Carbide is the second longest lasting and expensive. And composite carbides such as the ROCTEC, which is manufactured by Kennametal is the longest lasting and most expensive.

I have collaborated with a factory to released our own composite carbide tapered nozzle and I’d like to give you the option to try it out. While I do not believe it is as good as the ROCTEC, these are offered at a much lower cost and I believe will be one of the highest valued nozzles available in the marketplace. We believe it will have the lowest cost per hour of use.

Our Nozzle Details

I am very happy with the production of these new nozzles. Some of the benefits:

• High density carbide which weights about the same as the ROCTEC.
• Typical tapered design used by most pressure pot sandblasters. (See dimensions on listing)
• Made of top of the line composite carbide.
