Description of Operation:

The Clemco Power Gun Simply Connects To Compressed-Air And Abrasive Sources. The Unique Suction Lance Installed On The Abrasive Hose Is Partially Submerged Into A Bag Of Media. Blasting Begins When The Operator Depresses A Lever On The Gun. The Tool Operates On The Principle Of Induction, Where Vacuum Is Created By The Compressed Air Rushing Past The Point Where The Abrasive Hose Attaches To The Gun. The Vacuum Draws Abrasive Through The Hose Into The Gun, Where It Mixes With Compressed Air. The Air-Abrasive Mix Exits The Gun And Strikes The Surface To Be Blasted.  The Clemco Power Gun Includes The Suction Lance, Blast Gun  With A Fixed Orfice Of A 1/4" Air Jet And 1/2" Nozzle And Trigger Assembly.  The Clemco Power Gun Operates Best With 80 CFM @ 90 PSI.
