Value Collection 4013055585 Blow Gun Safety Nozzle 1/8 Npsm

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 4013055585 is a safety nozzle designed as a direct replacement tip for thumbswitch-style blow guns used in compressed air applications. Threaded to a 1/8 NPSM standard, this nozzle measures 0.58 inches in length and installs at the business end of a blow gun to help direct airflow while meeting common safety requirements for open-ended nozzle replacement. The overall unit dimensions are compact at 0.75 inches long, 0.4 inches wide, and 0.4 inches tall, with a total weight of 0.01 pounds. It is intended for use by maintenance technicians, machinists, and shop professionals who require a compliant, replacement safety nozzle for existing blow gun assemblies.

This safety nozzle is suited for industrial and commercial shop environments where compressed air lines are used for blowoff, cleaning, and drying tasks. The 1/8 NPSM thread makes it compatible with standard thumbswitch air guns commonly found in production facilities, automotive shops, and general maintenance settings. It ships as a single-piece unit and is a straightforward field replacement when an existing safety nozzle becomes worn or damaged.

• 1/8 NPSM thread standard for straightforward installation on compatible thumbswitch air guns
• Compact 0.58-inch hose length fits tight clearances at the nozzle end

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement safety nozzle for thumbswitch air guns using 1/8 NPSM threaded fittings. Verify thread standard and size on the existing blow gun before ordering.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a maintenance technician or machinist. Before replacing the nozzle, shut off the compressed air supply and bleed any residual pressure from the line. Use an appropriately sized wrench to thread the nozzle onto the blow gun — hand-tighten first, then snug with a wrench to avoid cross-threading the NPSM connection. Do not apply excessive force, as overtightening can damage the soft thread form on NPSM fittings.
