Exclusive FlexSeal Needle

Totally enclosed patented design eliminates needles exposure to fluid, extends needle life by 70%, and ensures consistent needle shut-off

Fluid pushes on seal to quickly shut off needle and reduce spitting

Spring is located outside fluid path for better flow

Helps eliminate pack out and slow needle shut-off

Reduced Gun Spitting

Repositioned seat is closer to the tip, eliminating 60% of the dead space

Less paint left between needle and tip results in less spitting

Ergonomic Design

Form-fitted handle provides maximum control and comfort

Detachable trigger guard swings clear of gun handle for easy filter access

Lightweight design reduces operator fatigue

Trigger Lock

Smooth, lightweight trigger pull with simple, thumb-engaged safety lock

Modular Needle Design

Simply remove the trigger cross pin and unthread front housing to change out needle

EasyGlide Swivel

Exclusive dual-seat swivel design reduces sealing friction under pressure, making this the best swivel on the market!
