Sandblast hose is a tool to remove rust, clean and roughen metal surfaces during ship build and repair. Its main function is to spray sand onto the metal surface through high pressure air. While this is to remove scale, rust and other impurities. Then it can create good surface conditions for painting, welding and other processes. In the next, I will show you the shipyard sandblast hose.
Composition of rust removal sandblast hose in shipyard
Nozzle
The nozzle is the front part of the sand blast pipe. It’s to mix high pressure air with sand and spray it onto the metal surface. The shape and size of the nozzle will affect the spraying effect. So it is necessary to choose the proper nozzle based on actual needs.
Air supply interface
The air source interface is a component that connects the blast pipe to the air source. For example, an air compressor. It usually use a quick connector or threaded connection. The gas source interface needs to have good sealing performance to prevent gas leakage.
Sand pipe
The sand pipe is the main part of the abrasive blast pipe and it is to deliver sand. The inner diameter and length of the sand pipe will affect the injection distance and flow rate. Thus you should choose the right size and type based on your special work.
Handle
The handle is the part that operates the sand blasting pipe. And it is usually designed to be non-slip to remain stable during work. There is also a switch on the handle to control the air flow and sand flow. Then it will be convenient for you to adjust the spray effect.
