A low cost and reliable method of generating a vacuum for those who already have a good air compressor. The generator will create 27" of Hg vacuum/pressure when coupled in-line to an air compressor capable of producing 2.2 cfm. Larger air compressors are advisable for continuous use applications. Smaller air compressors should use the #2229-A Vacuum Generator. Suitable for parts up to 80 sq. ft.
A Great Starter Pump!
Simple and Immediate Use
Rated for continuous operation, this oilless pump is wired for immediate use in a standard 110 outlet. Supplied with a barb fitting which ensures secure coupling to #893 vacuum tubing. The only assembly required is the attachment of feet which are also supplied with the pump. Suitable for parts up to 30-40 sq. ft.
1/16 HP, 24" Hg, .5 CFM Diaphragm Pump comes with Unlimited One Year Warranty.
Ideal for Full Scale or High Vacuum Applications
For Advanced Vacuum Projects
For larger or multiple bag applications, this pump requires the installation of a plug or hard wiring for use in either a 110 or 220 outlet. Supplied with one barb fitting for tubing attachment, rubber feet, and a secure mounting base. Suitable for applications up to 100 sq. ft.
1/3 HP, 26" Hg, 4.5 CFM Rotary Vane Pump comes with Unlimited One Year Warranty.
Thermal Gun
Know When Resin Has Begun and Finished Curing
This easy to use device reads surface temperatures from 0-575 degrees F to within 3 degrees. Simply point and pull the trigger for instant visual readings. Ideal for identifying when resin is curing and maximum exotherm is achieved. Aim at resin in your bucket or in your laminate and know exactly when its setting up. Model includes laser guide for pinpoint accuracy. 9V battery included.
Ultrasonic Leak Detector
The easiest way to find leaks
This time-saving device amplifies ultrasonic frequencies while filtering out background noise, making it ideal for pinpointing leaks during vacuum bagging or infusion. Headphones provide easy listening, while LED display meter indicates leak strength. Includes Ultrasonic Leak Detector, tubular extension adapter, tubular extension, parabola, headphones, and carrying case. Dimensions: 1 x 2.5 x 7.3, Weight: 4.5 oz or 6.3 oz (with battery,) Requires 9V (included), Frequency response: 35kHz to 45kHz +6db.
Stethoscope
Economic approach to leak detection
A low cost alternative to assisting leak detection. A stethoscope can help detect small leaks in a vacuum seal without expensive filtering devices.
Two Way Shutoff Valve
A simple way to reduce vacuum pressure by limiting flow through the line. This valve is installed to permit vacuum relief or to seal off a vacuum bag.
Vacuum Connector
This 1/2" ID connector is all that is required to complete a basic installation. Place the connector through the bag, attach tubing, and you're ready to begin!
Thru-Bag Vacuum Connector
When conventional air line is used as the vacuum tubing, this connector will fit the threaded brass hose end effectively coupling the pump and the bag. Also, to install a gauge inside the bag, a support connector is required. This connector supports and mounts the gauge in the bag to permit pressure within the bag to register. Fitting permits male to male connections.
Vacuum Gauge
2" diameter face with glass lens cover and easy-to-read markings allows measurement and thus permits control of vacuum pressure. Can be installed with either a #898-A, #902-A, or a #910-A connector.
Plastic Barb Fitting
We supply this 1/2" OD fitting with all pumps and assemblies, but they might need periodic replacement.
T-Attachment Assembly
The easiest way to install a vacuum gauge. Permits installation at pump for readout of vacuum pressure.
Bleedoff Valve Assembly
Permits installation of a vacuum gauge at the pump, but can introduce vacuum relief if reduced pressure is desired.
T-Fitting
1/2" OD permits multiple bags to be installed.
Vacuum Tubing
1/2" tubing selected to be inexpensive yet resistant to collapse throughout the vacuum cycle.
Equal Angle Y Connector
Serrated arms permit a tight fit in multiple bag applications.
Hose Clamps
Secure your tubing connections every time with these hose clamps. Continuous band construction will clamp tightly without cutting or digging into the tubing. Fits all of our vacuum tubing, spiral tubing and fittings.
Hose Cutters
Snip quickly and cleanly
The easiest way to cut tubing, these handy hose cutters do the job quickly and keep you moving. Use with any of our tubing for clean cuts every time, even at awkward angles.
