OverviewNew TurboBlast® Safety Air Guns deliver very high airflow and blowing force (up to 23 lbs) in an ergonomic, cast-aluminum body with over-molded elastomer grip. The soft one-finger trigger provides easy activation; a low-profile trigger design protects the actuator if dropped. An automatic shut-off mechanism stops airflow if the gun is released or dropped, enhancing operator safety. Base models include a 1' (304.8 mm) extension; 3' (914 mm) and 6' (1829 mm) extensions are optional. Nozzle guards are included. This listing excludes the gate/flow valve; models with on-the-fly flow adjustment are available separately.
