Greenwire: While some coastal property owners recoil at the idea of anything marring their view of the water, many are coming to a stark realization: "Living shorelines" -- with native grasses and rock or oyster-reef breakwaters -- may be the only option left for countering rising seas and eroding shoreline.

Stainless Steel Flat Air Nozzle produces high force, low noise.
2014-09-12 14:30:28| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today
Consuming 17.5 scfm of air at 80 psig, 1 in. High Power Stainless Steel Flat Super Air Nozzle™ produces flat, 1 in. wide airstream with blowing force of 16 oz when mounted 12 in. from target. Integrated technology maximizes entrained airflow while reducing noise (82 dBA), and Type 316 stainless steel construction withstands corrosive, high-temperature, food, pharmaceutical, and chemical environments. Force and flow may be adjusted by installing different shim thicknesses. This story is related to the following:Stainless Steel Nozzles | Air Nozzles | Flat Spray Nozzles
