Long Lasting Performance With Boron Carbide Nozzle

Clemco blast machine performance can be ensured through long-term success when equipped with an effective nozzle. A quality nozzle protects against unexpected downtime, productivity hits and increased media costs due to abrasion/erossion.

Boron carbide sandblasting nozzles are constructed of one of the hardest technical materials – second only to diamond and cubic boron nitride. When employed correctly with optimal air and abrasive conditions, these nozzles offer long lifespan. Ideal for aggressive abrasives like aluminum oxide or specific mineral constituents.

Hardness

Hardness of a nozzle is one of the key factors governing its performance and longevity, since blasting nozzles must withstand impacts caused by their media such as sandblasting. Our boron carbide sandblast nozzles have proven themselves capable of withstanding this impactful media for an extended lifespan compared to similar alternatives on the market.

Boron carbide is one of the hardest technical materials available, second only to diamond and cubic boron nitride in terms of hardness. When produced in dense sintered form, boron carbide provides long service lives in sandblasting nozzles designed for use with forceful abrasives like corundum or specific mineral aggregates where rough handling could otherwise occur.

Additionally, sandblast nozzles crafted of boron carbide are much lighter than their counterparts made with additional materials like tungsten, making them easier for workers to manage over long shifts with reduced arm and hand strain – an added advantage in labor intensive applications.

Abrasion Resistance

Boron carbide, one of the hardest technical materials known (second only to diamond and cubic boron nitride), can easily withstand the impact force from sandblasting media, making boron carbide blast nozzles extremely durable & resistant to abrasion – giving them service lives up to 10 times longer than silicon or tungsten carbide nozzles.

Boron carbide sandblast nozzles offer excellent abrasion resistance, making them suitable for handling the harsh environments found in industrial settings, especially when blasting aggressive or sharp media such as corundum and garnet. Due to this durability, boron carbide makes an ideal material choice for multiple shift operations and daily use.

Boron carbide sandblasting nozzles are exceptionally lightweight, which reduces strain on workers during long shifts by making it easier for them to keep control of the nozzle as they work and therefore preventing fatigue while increasing efficiency of operations.

Chemical Inertness

Durability is one of the key advantages of boron carbide ceramic nozzles, enabling them to withstand blasting particles at higher velocity for longer. This ensures more consistent performance while cutting costs; consistent media flow reduces compressor needs and downtime caused by replacement nozzles.

Such nozzles are suitable for use with all forms of blasting media, from aggressive abrasives like aluminum oxide and garnet to specific mineral aggregates. Depending on the material being blasted, they have outlived their counterpart tungsten carbide or silicon carbide nozzles by up to five times!

Boron carbide’s chemical inertness renders it resistant to corrosion, making it suitable for applications requiring long-lasting components. Furthermore, its thermal conductivity allows it to dissipate heat quickly and efficiently, making boron carbide an attractive choice for modern military equipment such as protective armor and missiles that need high ballistic protection yet are lightweight in weight.

Lightweight

Our boron carbide blast nozzles are constructed using a sintered boron carbide ceramic liner that offers superior strength and abrasion resistance, yet weighs less compared to similar options made from other materials, making it the perfect fit for use with sandblasting guns.

Boron Carbide (molecular formula B4C) is one of the hardest technical materials known, second only to diamond and cubic boron nitride in terms of hardness. When used in blasting applications, sandblasting nozzles sintered from boron carbide have outstanding handling properties and outshone other types five-10 times longer while outperforming iron/cast iron ones 100x over!

Our boron carbide sandblasting nozzles with natural rubber jackets come in sizes that span 6mm to 10mm and use Venturi impact to maximize blast media exit speed for improved blast interpretation and surface preparation. They work great with all forms of abrasive blast media such as aluminum oxide or steel grit blast media, so choose one today and maximize surface preparation!
