Problem Solvers

Solve Cooling Problems


Producing a continuous air stream of 20 F, EXAIR’s High Power Cold Gun appears to have twice the cooling power of an ordinary Cold Gun. The unit is easy to mount and position with its magnetic base, flexible ball and socket hose. By converting compressed air into cold air, the product eliminates the additional costs of using expensive and messy cooling options like mist systems. The product works efficiently with laser cutting, tooling sharpening and plastic machining, among other tasks.
