Guardair U74LVB Low Volume Air Blow Gun 3/8 Npt Brass

Product Description

The GUARDAIR U74LVB is a low volume air blow gun designed for controlled compressed air delivery in industrial and shop environments. Built with a brass body and brass nozzle, it connects via a 3/8 NPT female inlet and delivers up to 17 standard cubic feet per minute (SCFM) of airflow. The 80 dB decibel rating makes it compliant with OSHA dead-end pressure noise requirements for low volume blow guns. At 6.6 inches overall length, it provides a compact, ergonomic profile. This tool is installed and used by HVAC technicians, machinists, maintenance professionals, and general shop personnel performing part cleaning, chip clearing, and air drying tasks.

The U74LVB is suited for light industrial, automotive, and mechanical service applications where controlled airflow is needed without high-volume blast pressure. Its low volume tip design limits dead-end pressure, making it appropriate for regulated shop environments and applications requiring precision airflow rather than high thrust. The 1.00 lb maximum transmissible thrust rating confirms its classification as a safety-style blow gun. It operates across a wide temperature range, from -30 degrees F to 180 degrees F, supporting use in cold storage facilities, unheated shops, and warm production environments alike.

Key Features

• Low volume tip type limits dead-end pressure for safer compressed air operation
• Brass body and brass nozzle provide corrosion resistance and durability in shop environments
• 3/8 NPT female inlet for standard compressed air line connections
• 17 SCFM airflow with 80 dB noise rating for compliant shop use
• Wide operating range from -30 degrees F to 180 degrees F
• Compact 6.6 inch overall length for easy one-handed operation

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 3/8 NPT compressed air supply lines in industrial, automotive, and mechanical service shop settings.

Installation Notes

Installation requires depressurizing the compressed air line before attaching or removing the blow gun. Thread the 3/8 NPT female inlet onto a compatible male NPT fitting using appropriate thread sealant per shop practice. Do not exceed the rated maximum temperature of 180 degrees F in the operating environment. Maintenance personnel should verify that the connected air supply pressure is within the tool manufacturer's rated limits before use.
