How to Read a 36-XXX Tip Number
Each C.A. Technologies tip number identifies the spray angle, approximate pattern width, and fluid-orifice size:
-
36- identifies the part as a C.A. Technologies Air Assist Airless tip.
-
First digit after the dash identifies the nominal fan angle. Add a zero to determine the angle in degrees.
-
The same first digit can be multiplied by 2 to determine the approximate spray-pattern width in inches at about 12 inches from the surface.
-
Final two digits identify the orifice size in thousandths of an inch.
Example: 36-207
-
“2” indicates a nominal fan angle of 20 degrees.
-
“2” multiplied by 2 indicates an approximate 4-inch spray pattern at a distance of about 12 inches.
-
“07” indicates a 0.007-inch orifice.
This makes it easy to select the appropriate tip for your material and application.
