fabricgator Posted May 29, 2019 Report Share Posted May 29, 2019 (edited) 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!

wingless Posted May 29, 2019 Report Share Posted May 29, 2019 Here is ceramic tubing. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fabricgator Posted May 30, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2019 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!

fabricgator Posted June 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2019 How would one go about cutting or machining this ceramic tube? Abrasive diamond perhaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wingless Posted June 1, 2019 Report Share Posted June 1, 2019 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.
