Product Name
MixCoat SP-DPS Atomizing Air Tube Extender with Quick-Lock Coupling (Individual Air Tube) - SP-DPF Series (151689, 151690)
Brief Description
This product is an atomizing air tube extender with a quick-lock coupling, designed as an accessory for MixCoat pneumatic spray systems. It extends the reach of the spray nozzle, facilitating easier and more precise application of two-component coatings, sealants, and adhesives, ensuring optimal atomization for a high-quality finish.
Popular Applications & Uses
- Applying two-component (2K) coatings, sealants, and adhesives.- Performing small volume applications, touch-up, and repair work.- Extending the reach of spray nozzles to access difficult or confined areas during coating processes.- Ensuring precise and consistent mixing and application of plural-component materials.
Industries that Commonly Use It
- Aerospace/Defense (for protective coatings)- Automotive Service/Repair (for touch-up and specialized coatings)- Chemical Industry (for protective linings and sealants)- Construction/Building Services (for various coating and sealing applications)- Energy (e.g., wind energy, pipelines, offshore platforms for protective coatings).- General Manufacturing (for product finishing and protection)- Marine (for shipbuilding, offshore structures, and maintenance).- Metal Fabrication (for corrosion protection and finishing)- Petroleum Industry, Products or Services (for pipeline and petrochemical equipment coatings).- Transportation/Specialty Vehicle (e.g., rail vehicles, specialty automotive coatings).
Special and Unique Features
- **Atomizing Air Tube Extender:** Provides extended reach for spray applications, improving accessibility in various work environments.- **Quick-Lock Coupling:** Features a quick-lock mechanism for fast, secure, and tool-free attachment and detachment to compatible spray systems.- **Individual Air Tube:** A dedicated component designed specifically for atomizing air delivery, crucial for fine spray patterns.- **System Compatibility:** Engineered to work seamlessly with MixCoat DPS Series hand-held dispensers and DPF Series stationary dispensers.- **Enhanced Atomization:** Contributes to superior atomization, breaking liquid into small, evenly distributed droplets for a smoother and more uniform finish.
Key Properties
- **Material Compatibility:** Designed for use with two-component (2K) materials, including various coatings, sealants, and adhesives.- **Length Options:** Available in two standard lengths: 1.5 meters (approximately 5 feet) and 3.0 meters (approximately 10 feet).- **Coupling Mechanism:** Utilizes a quick-lock coupling for efficient and reliable connection.- **Integration:** An integral part of the MixCoat pneumatic spray system, ensuring optimal performance when used with specified dispensers and mixers.- **Function:** Delivers atomizing air to the spray nozzle to achieve desired spray quality.
Surface Compatibility
- Compatible with a wide range of surfaces typically treated with industrial two-component coatings, such as:- Steel structures (e.g., pipelines, bridges, tanks).- Various metal, composite, and prepared substrates requiring protective or aesthetic finishes.- Surfaces found in marine, wind energy, petrochemical, and general industrial environments.
Known backups / known substitutes
- Other lengths of MixCoat atomizing air tubes or similar components specifically designed for plural-component spray systems from alternative manufacturers.- Generic air hoses and fittings, though these may lack the specific quick-lock coupling and optimized atomization performance of the MixCoat system.- Alternative application methods for two-component materials, such as brushes or rollers, which may not offer the same precision, speed, or finish quality for spray applications.
Comparison Note
The MixCoat SP-DPS Atomizing Air Tube Extender with Quick-Lock Coupling is a specialized component engineered for the MixCoat SP-DPS/SP-DPF series, providing precise atomization and convenient quick-lock functionality. Its design ensures optimal performance and compatibility within the MixCoat system for two-component material application. Generic air tubes or non-system-specific extenders may not offer the same level of seamless integration, ease of use, or consistent atomization quality, potentially leading to compromised application results and efficiency.
