Jets are round-throated air amplifiers; one end provides a strong airflow while the other creates suction as free air is entrained. Since jets output a more concentrated, targeted volume of air than nozzles, they are ideal for water, solvents or light oil stripping applications

Drastically Reduce Compressed Air Consumption

ITW Vortec's blowoff nozzles and jets are designed to reduce compressed air consumption and noise drastically, compared to open jets.

To accomplish these impressive air savings, we incorporate the proven Transvector® amplification principle in our nozzle and jet designs. When compressed air enters the nozzle or jet, it fills a chamber with only one exit path - a 0.002" (0.051 mm) annular orifice. As air passes through this orifice, it accelerates to 1000 feet (304.8m) per second, entraining free surrounding air as it exits. The result is airflow volume up to 25 times more than compressed air supplied.
