Rotating UHP water jets from NLB

NLB has introduced two ultra-high pressure, UHP, water jet accessories that improve performance and can be repaired in the field in under five minutes. The Viper 40, the self-rotating head to operate at pressures up to 40,000 psi, easily attaches to a standard NLB NCG40-286 lance. This new lance is simpler than air-driven UHP lances and eliminates the expense of an air source. The Viper 40 has a round stainless steel body with recessed nozzle inserts, to reduce damage from nozzle strikes. Its combination of rotating UHP action and a wide spray path make it exceptionally effective in a wide range of product removal applications.

Unlike previous Spin-Nozzle heads, which must be returned to the factory for repairs, the Viper 40 can be repaired in the field in less than five minutes. The NCG40-286 lance is also field-repairable, thanks to a quick-change cartridge seal that can be replaced in just 60 seconds. This lightweight lance features a patented trigger design that allows the operator to dump pressure instantly. Other operator-friendly features include easy trigger actuation and adjustable shoulder stock and hand grip.

NLB Corp. manufactures a full line of quality water jetting systems and accessories for contractor and industrial uses. These include surface preparation, paint removal, tank and tube cleaning, concrete hydrodemolition, concrete and pipe cutting, and more.
