puhalluspistoolissa

A puhalluspistooli, or blow gun, is a simple pneumatic tool used for cleaning or drying surfaces by directing a stream of compressed air. It consists of a nozzle, a trigger mechanism, and an air inlet, which is typically connected to an air compressor or compressed air line. When the trigger is squeezed, a valve opens, allowing compressed air to flow through the nozzle and out at high velocity.

Blow guns are commonly used in various industrial and automotive settings. They are effective for removing dust, debris, metal shavings, and other particulate matter from machinery, workbenches, and electronic components. In automotive repair, they are useful for cleaning engine parts, brake assemblies, and other areas during maintenance or rebuilding. They can also be used for drying surfaces after cleaning or degreasing.

The design of a blow gun varies, but most feature an ergonomic handle for comfortable grip and a long nozzle to reach into tight spaces. Some models may include different nozzle attachments for specific applications, such as a rubber-tipped nozzle to prevent scratching delicate surfaces. Safety considerations are important when using a blow gun, as the high-velocity air stream can cause injury if directed at skin or eyes. Wearing appropriate personal protective equipment, such as safety glasses, is recommended. The air pressure used can be regulated by the air compressor or a regulator valve, allowing for controlled airflow depending on the task.
