OK?
Here goes: We sell a great solution to your clean up problems and that makes your tasks easier and quicker.
We sell a hard working tool that anyone can learn to use.
Here's the Specs.
The TEXASBLASTER is a 1.5 cubic foot PRESSURE blaster.
It holds 150 lbs. of blast sand.
We only build ONE size blaster.
It is entirely field repairable with commonly available parts.
It is used to clean EVERY kind of surface.
Wood, brick, stone, iron, marble, aluminum, fiberglass, brass, copper, granite, hardened steel, limestone, sheet metal, frames, cast iron, glass and steel plate.
It is used to engrave delicate artwork on sandstone, etch glass, carve granite or engrave marble headstones.
With the right media it will clean wood, brick, tile, cement blocks CMU's, stucco or fiberglass.
If your needs are anything less than corroded and multi-layered painted hardened steel plate surfaces - then the TexasBlaster will obviously do that work very easily.
The TexasBlaster was created in the Texas oilfield back in 1965 and since then the TexasBlaster has out sold every other American made sandblaster of this size.
This blaster is simple, easy to operate, field repairable and most importantly - IT WORKS JUST AS GOOD AS BLASTERS THAT COST FOUR TIMES AS MUCH MONEY!
The TexasBlaster is used every day in the heaviest, roughest, toughest blast work in the world.
It is used to do restoration on heavy equipment, farm equipment, automobiles and trailers.
THE TEXASBLASTER WILL BLAST ANY BLAST MEDIA.
THAT MEANS IT WILL SHOOT SAND, SODA, STEEL, SHELLS, NUTS, BEADS, GLASS, OR ANY THING YOU CAN THINK OF THAT WILL FIT THRU THE NOZZLE OPENING.
When another outfit tells you that their blaster requires a certain amount of air (CFM) to operate; that is a very misleading statement because the NOZZLE requires a particular amount of air - NOT THE BLASTER. This FACT confuses amatures.
American made sandblasters do not make this claim - only the import versions.
YOUR AIR COMPRESSOR'S CFM MUST BE SUFFICIENT TO KEEP UP WITH THE NOZZLE SIZE.
IF YOU DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH HORSE POWER THEN YOU CAN'T DO THE WORK. PERIOD. THE OBJECT IS TO MOVE A LOAD OF SAND AT 90 OR 100 PSI. BIGGER HOLE, MORE SAND. MORE SAND, MORE WORK. BIGGER HOLE MORE HORSEPOWER. The TexasBlaster does not dictate what size nozzle you want to use. Use whatever size nozzle you need - or that you have enough volume of air to support.
Most everyone would like to use a bigger nozzle, but the limiting factor is the available air.
Nozzles have different size openings or orifices.
The size of the nozzle requires a minimum of air volume to keep a constant 90 to 100 pounds of pressure.
Bigger hole at the end of the hose - bigger horse power compressor to maintain pressure.
It's the volume of air (CFM,) not the pressure of the air that is critical. See "NOZZLE MATCH" at the top of this home page for a chart of air requirements.
We offer and support FOUR sizes TUNGSTEN CARBIDE nozzles.
One TUNGSTEN CARBIDE NOZZLE is INCLUDED with each TexasBlaster RIG we ship.
We rig a TexasBlaster with (10') ten feet of 3/4" i.d. thunder blast hose with a QC (quick coupler) and a Nozzle Holder.
If you need more blast hose you can place your order, then send us an email asking for a custom hose to be made up for you. The added charge is $5 per foot for each foot of additional hose. We make up hoses in ten foot segments from ten to one hundred feet.
We build them - We sell them direct
We offer Quality - Value & Customer Service.
A TexasBlaster RIG includes: a water trap, a blast hood. an extra lens for the hood, a tungsten carbide nozzle, ten feet of blast hose, hose fittings and a Nozzle Holder for the nozzle.
"Will it blast what you need blasted?"
You do NOT need to call and ask if it will do your job - because It will.
It will blast ANY media.
It will blast any size nozzle therefore it will do any type work.
REPEAT: I obviously need to say this again: Listen up. The size of the compressor and how much media you blast is NOT A FUNCTION OF A BLASTER - that's all up to the nozzle size. The blaster is just a tank that holds grit with a bunch of valves and things to make it work proper.
It is NOT the SIZE of the blast tank that dictates what size compressor you need!
The TexasBlaster WILL blast ANY size nozzle you want!
That means the BLAST NOZZLE could require as little as 8 or 9 cfm for a 3/32nd nozzle; or as much as 200cfm for a 3/8th inch nozzle.
The size of that nozzle that YOU attach to the end of the blast hose tells you how much VOLUME of air you will require.
