About Eastwood 50lb Pressure Abrasive Blaster
Sturdy welded hopper, 1/2" heavy-duty nozzle, heavy-wall blast hose and safety pressure-relief valve make this one rugged, durable, and very efficient abrasive blaster. Don't skimp with one of those low-cost units that frustrate you with clogging and sporadic media spraying. This Eastwood pressure blaster completely strips the average frame in less than a day, rather than weeks using other units or methods. Designed for high flow with minimal air input; a compressor producing a minimum of 10 cfm at 90 psi will work fine. 10"W x 14"L x 33"H.
Rolls easily to your job site. For best results and the most efficient operation, use clean, dry, 80-grit or finer abrasive media. 1-year limited warranty.

1/2"-ID x 8'-long Hose

Great little blaster!
Review by Pat -
Value Quality Price I've used this blaster to strip the frame of a truck I'm redoing. It worked really well. Only problem I had is I had to refill it quite often, I wish I would have gone to the larger size. But, this is a great little blaster for the money!

Review by Robroy Gregg -
Value Quality Price I've been using the Eastwood 50lb pressure blaster for a few months now. It is an enormous step up from a siphon blaster! I've been using it to cut through some heavy rust on old car parts, and my only regret is that I spent so much time tryijng to use a siphon unit before finally investing in one of these--this thing is fast.
One drawback, which could be true of lots of different blasters, is that it seems to eat its consumable parts pretty quickly. I ran through about 500 pounds of aluminum oxide before I had to replace the nozzle pieces.
Also, now it's sputtering and I can't figure out why. I sent Eastwood two e-mails and left one voice mail asking for help with this, but never heard back. I'm not sure what parts I should replace next to try to address the sputtering; it's probably a wear problem around the valve assembly right under the tank, but I'm not sure. I've already checked to make sure there's no oil or water in the air.
Overall this product seems like a great deal! I'll probably resolve the sputtering problem somehow.
One thing to consider is that you might want to go with one with a larger tank on it. This thing really shoots out the sand and the 50lb tank empties pretty quickly.
