When more than one hose branch is being used, it is advisable to close off all the inactive lines using a blast gate to ensure maximum airflow along the active line.

The centre plate simply slides between the open and closed position.

The gate has two 63mm (2.5″) connections. Our 65mm flexible, 65FLEX, hose can be connected directly and secured with a hose clamp, 65HC.

Blast gates can be attached directly to a 63mm diameter outlet on a machine using a tapered joining sleeve, 63SL.

Gates are also commonly attached to the splitter (T-Branch or Y-Branch) using a tapered joining sleeve.

You can mount the gate wherever is the most convenient position or wall mount them using our wall mounting bracket, GWM.
