I am about to do some prep work prior to fabrication and I dragged out me sandy jet blaster (craftsman siphon media blaster 9-16707)
I am checking it out and decided that a ceramic nozzle change would be in order, but the nozzles are not available from Sears.
Does anybody know of an alternative other than purchasing another blast media gun?
The nozzle is basically a 3/8″ OD ceramic tube with a 1/4″ ID x (aprox) 1-3/4″ long.
Cheers!
Here is ceramic tubing.
Good luck.
Excellent guidance wingless… thank you.
I happened on a set on ebay but I imagine they are going to become scarce in the near future.
AND, I love to find interesting supplies for future projects.
Cheers!
How would one go about cutting or machining this ceramic tube?
Abrasive diamond perhaps?
That would be my go to tool.
My DeWalt DWE4214 4½ inch heavy-duty small angle grinder with my King Diamond 101-604 cutting wheel is what I would use. It is specified for: wet / dry porcelain; ceramic; marble and granite.
