All air nozzles and jets are not the same. ITW Vortec’s Energy-Saving Nozzles amplify airflow volume up to 25 times more than the compressed air supplied. The result is less compressed air usage to deliver the same or greater thrust performance.
ITW Vortec’s blowoff nozzles are designed to reduce compressed air consumption and noise drastically, compared to open jets.
Perfect for all types of blowoff, cooling and drying applications, these nozzles are available in a variety of low and high thrust models. Use them to meet OSHA compliance as they meet OSHA specifications for noise and dead-end pressure. Additionally, Vortec Nozzles deliver a very precise airflow making them ideal for parts movement and ejection.
