Stainless Steel Air Guns
Sub-Freezing Air for Dry Machining and Spot Cooling
The Stainless Steel Air Gun is an applied Vortex Tube to accomodate factory compressed air supplies. The range of temperature from the Stainless Steel Cold Gun is a 75°F (41°C) drop from the incoming ambient air supply to a 140°F (77°C) increase of the compressed air supply. Since compressed air supply temperature is very close to the ambient, a 75°F day would yield a cold stream of air from the AiRTX Air Gun of 0°F (-18°C).
A Ready-to-Use, Portable Cold-Air Source
The Air Gun is your portable cold-air source for improving dry machining operations or spot-cooling a wide range of industrial processes.
Using only compressed air, the Air Guns produce a stream of cold air 80 °F (45 °C) below your compressed air temperature.
It's clean, convenient-put the gun where you need it, using the magnetic base-aim the cold air stream onto your work with the flexible hose-go to work!
The Air Guns are heavy-duty, built for the rigors of factory-floor service. Made of heavy-gauge stainless steel, they are precision-machined, assembled and tested under strict quality control. They will never pit or rust when subjected to coolants, water, or other corrosive materials.
- Just plug in air line, aim it, go to work
- Instant on/off
- Maintenance-free, no moving parts

- Increase feeds, speeds and quality
- Eliminates liquid coolant cost, contamination, skin irritation, mess on walls, floors, machines
- Finishes the job with a clean, dry part
- Improves tool life, production rates, finish, tolerances
- Eliminates microcracking and burning
- Reduces wheel loading and dressing
Food Processing Solutions - Product Cooling
Two stainless steel Model 60040 Air Guns in a plastic enclosure provide clean, dry, cold air to cool baked goods - for a tiny fraction of the cost of a long cooling conveyor.
Metalworking Solutions - Band Sawing
The Model 60060 Air Gun eliminates liquid coolant in cutting of bar stock. Cold air prolongs blade life and stops premature dulling.
Plastics Solutions - Machining
Model 60040 Air Gun speeds production on this plastics machining operation and improves finish by cooling, cutting tool with 10 °F (-12 C) air.
Woodworking Solutions - Routing
For faster routing, without burning and discoloring the wood, the Model 60040 Air Gun puts 10 °F (-12 C) air on the router bit, leaving no residue.
Spot Cooling
- No liquids, ozone-depleting chemicals, or residue
- Cool solders, hot melts, adhesives
- Thermo-test electronic components, circuit boards and thermostats
- Shrink-fit parts
- Cool mold tooling, ultrasonic devices
- Cool needles to prevent thread breakage and heat cracking of synthetic threads
