What Is The Deep Hole Vac-u-Gun?

A low-cost solution to quickly remove chips and contaminants from grooves, containers and drilled holes where blow guns could create potentially hazardous flying debris. Simply position the Deep Hole Vac-u-Gun over the hole and press the trigger. A small blow tube dislodges and lifts the chips while the large suction tube vacuums them away. The operator is protected from flying debris since all contaminants are contained within the clear suction tube. It is perfect for cleaning holes up to 1-1/4″ (32mm) diameter at a depth of 18″ (457mm).

The Deep Hole Vac-u-Gun uses less compressed air than an ordinary blow gun. It injects a small amount of compressed air through directed nozzles to produce a vacuum on one end and a high output flow on the other. The amplified output flow is 12 times the air consumption rate.

Lightweight and easy to use, the Deep Hole Vac-u-Gun has a durable die-cast construction with no moving parts to wear out. A hanger is provided for easy storage or for mounting on a tool balancer.

How The Deep Hole Vac-u-Gun Works

Compressed air, normally 80-100 PSlG (5.5 – 6.9 BAR), flows through the inlet (1) into an annular plenum chamber (2) when the trigger is depressed. A small amount of air is injected into the blow tube (3) to provide lift for the chips or debris. The larger airflow is injected into the throat of the gun through directed nozzles (4). These jets of air create a vacuum at the intake (5) which draws material in and accelerates it through the unit. The chips, debris or other particulate can then be exhausted into a filter bag or hose attached to the Deep Hole Vac-u-Gun System.

The Deep Hole Vac-u-Gun should not be operated without a filter bag or vacuum hose attached to the exhaust. Vacuum tools cannot be used with this product.

Warning : Do not use with combustible dust.
