Product Name
Brush and Hose Mixing Nozzle Assembly for MixCoat Spray System (FHB 01 series)
Brief Description
The FHB 01 series Brush and Hose Mixing Nozzle Assembly is a specialized accessory for the MixCoat Spray System, designed for the precise application of two-component coatings via a brush-on method. This assembly integrates a hand brush, a hose, and a static mixing nozzle into a single, easy-to-use unit. It is particularly suited for situations where brush application is preferred or necessary, ensuring accurate mixing and efficient material delivery for repair and maintenance tasks.
Popular Applications & Uses
- Applying two-component paints and coatings in small to medium-sized areas- Touch-up and repair jobs for coatings- Coating applications in confined spaces or hard-to-reach areas- Maintenance and repair in marine environments- Pipeline, bridge, tank, wind, and rail infrastructure maintenance- Any scenario where brush-on application of 2-component materials is optimal
Industries that Commonly Use It
- Aerospace/Defense for protective coatings and repairs- Automotive Service/Repair for specialized coating applications- Construction/Building Services for structural coatings and repairs- Energy sector, including wind turbine, pipeline, and tank maintenance- General Manufacturing for equipment and facility coating upkeep- Government & Military for various maintenance and repair operations- Marine industry for vessel and offshore structure coatings- Metal Fabrication for finishing and protective coating of fabricated parts- Petroleum Industry, Products or Services for pipeline and tank coatings- Transportation/Specialty Vehicle for rail and other vehicle coating repairs
Special and Unique Features
- Integrated hand brush, hose, and mixing nozzle for a complete application solution- Designed for brush-on coating applications, offering precision and control- Ensures guaranteed mixing of two-component materials to the prescribed ratio- Minimizes material waste compared to traditional hand-mixing methods- Provides a clean and efficient application process- Can be cleaned or discarded based on job requirements- Compatible with the portable MixCoat Spray System, requiring only an air connection for pneumatic operation
Key Properties
- Material: Components designed for chemical resistance to 2-component coatings- Length: Available in various hose lengths, such as 4.9 feet (1.5 meters) and 2.5 feet (0.75 meters)- Mixing Elements: Utilizes QUADRO™ Mixer technology for outstanding mixing efficiency- Application Method: Brush-on, for controlled and precise coating- Compatibility: Designed for use with MixCoat F-System cartridges (940ml to 1500ml) in various ratios (1:1, 2:1, 3:1, 4:1)
Surface Compatibility
- Compatible with surfaces typically coated by 2-component paints and protective coatings, including metals, composites, and various substrates requiring durable finishes. The specific coating material dictates the ultimate surface compatibility.
Known backups / known substitutes
- MixCoat Spray Nozzles (e.g., MFQ Straight Mixing Nozzles, MFQA Angled Mixing Nozzles) for spray applications when a brush finish is not required- Manual application with separate brushes and hand-mixed 2-component materials (less efficient, higher waste)- Other specialized static mixing nozzles for 2-component systems, depending on the specific dispenser and cartridge type.
Comparison Note
The FHB 01 series Brush and Hose Mixing Nozzle Assembly stands out from standard spray nozzles within the MixCoat system by offering a dedicated brush-on application. While other MixCoat nozzles are designed for atomized spray application, the FHB 01 provides the control and precision of a brush, making it ideal for intricate work, stripe coating, touch-ups, or when overspray is a concern. It maintains the core benefits of the MixCoat system, such as accurate mixing and reduced waste, but tailors the delivery method for specific brush-applied coating requirements.
