Tungsten carbide blast nozzles as a Robust, Versatile Solution

Tungsten carbide is a proven material for professional blast nozzles. The material is wear-resistant and mechanically robust, which is why it is used in many traditional blasting applications. Compared to particularly lightweight hard-material blast nozzles, tungsten carbide is heavier but offers a durable construction suitable for workshops, construction sites, and industrial settings.

Wide range of nozzle designs

This category includes short and long Venturi blast nozzles, hose-insert blast nozzles, and specialized solutions for angled areas, interior pipe surfaces, and wet blasting. As a result, tungsten carbide not only covers standard applications but also tasks in which the blasting direction or the addition of water plays a particularly important role.

Short Venturi nozzles are compact and practical when workspace is limited. Long Venturi designs are frequently used for high-performance blasting applications. Angled and internal pipe blast nozzles, on the other hand, feature a specifically modified blast direction and should be selected based on the workpiece geometry.

Nozzle bore and compressor power

The nozzle bore diameter significantly determines how much compressed air the system requires. As the bore size increases, the possible air and abrasive flow rate increases. This can increase the surface coverage rate, but requires a sufficiently sized compressor. To ensure stable blasting performance, a power reserve should also be taken into account, because the blast hose, couplings, valves, and compressed-air treatment cause additional pressure losses.

25 and 50 mm coarse threads and fine threads

Tungsten carbide nozzles are available in several connection types. The product range includes, among others, 25 mm coarse thread, 50 mm coarse thread, and 3/4-inch fine thread. Hose-insert blast nozzles have their own plug-in design. Therefore, the existing nozzle holder or blast hose must be clearly identified before purchase.

Check the nozzle bore for wear

Even tungsten carbide blast nozzles wear out. As the bore diameter increases, compressed air consumption rises and the blast pattern may change. Regularly checking the bore diameter helps determine the right time to replace the nozzle and avoid unnecessary energy and abrasive consumption.

Buy Tungsten Carbide Blast Nozzle

Tungsten carbide is a cost-effective and durable choice for many professional applications. However, the right combination of design, bore, connection, and system performance remains crucial. ABS Strahltechnik provides support in matching tungsten carbide blast nozzles, nozzle holders, blast hoses, abrasive media, and compressors.
