Vacuum blows chips loose while sucking

September 2003 Maintenance, Test & Measurement, Calibration Surveillance

Vac-u-Gun is a low-cost solution to quickly removing chips and contaminants from grooves, containers and drilled holes. The deep hole Vac-u-Gun replaces dangerous blow guns that can cause chips or debris to fly in all directions. Simply position the deep hole Vac-u-Gun over the hole and press the trigger. A small blow tube dislodges and lifts the chips while the large suction tube vacuums them away. The operator is protected from flying debris since all contaminants are contained within the clear suction tube. It is suitable for cleaning holes up to 32 mm diameter to a depth of 18" (46 cm).

The deep hole Vac-u-Gun uses less compressed air than an ordinary blow gun. It injects a small amount of compressed air through directed nozzles to produce a vacuum on one end and a high output flow on the other. The amplified output flow is 12 times the air consumption rate.

Lightweight and easy to use, the deep hole Vac-u-Gun has a durable die cast construction with no moving parts to wear out. A hanger is provided for easy storage or for mounting on a tool balancer.
