Innovations in Blasting!Building Blast Cabinets & Upgrade Systems for over 19 Years

** Components herein are primarily designed for the ’40 lb.’ full stand-up Harbor Freight style cabinets. Variations are possible to retro-fit most any style cabinet. **

BLAST CABINET UPGRADE KITS:

• Standard Upgrade Kit .……………...………....$298.00
• Standard-Plus Upgrade Kit ………………..... $379.00
• Deluxe Upgrade Kit ……….……….....……….. $459.00

ALL 3 MODELS of UPGRADE KITS INCLUDE:

· New Style Blast Gun complete w/ Ceramic Extended Nozzle
· High Volume Foot Control w/ feathering-action
· New Style Adjustable Metering Valve w/ trap door adapter
· Pressure Regulator w/ Gauge
· Hoses, Fittings, and Grommets.

All of these primary components that comprise all 3 kits, plus options 1-14 below, have been developed and manufactured by, or exclusively for, Tacoma Company.
We offer 3 Upgrade Kits to allow for a price choice. Any of which will perform better than the high-end commercial blast cabinet systems.

As you go up in kit models, more is done to all component parts to advance aesthetics, ergonomics, performance, and longevity. A comparison is somewhat akin to a Craftsman® tool vs. a SnapOn® tool. Both will do the job very well, but one looks better, feels better, and performs a little better, and typically costs a little more.


OPTIONS listed below in order of recommendation:

1. BAFFLE BOX ..…………………………………………..…………. $ 24.50
Covers air intake port on left inside of cabinet, re-directing in-take air flow down to front corner of cabinet.

2. BAFFLE BOX TOPPER .............................................. $ 8.95
To close off the top of the rear port baffle box.

3. WASTE GATE ELBOW ………………………………….……… $ 29.95
A flanged elbow to be attached over the rear vacuum port of cabinet. Lower sweep elbow attaches to 2.5” vacuum hose, w/ adjustable valve at top for adjustment of cabinet negative vacuum pressure, to keep good media in cabinet and dust out.

4. WINDOW QUICK-CHANGE KIT ……………………………. $ 29.00
Allows for quick, safe window glass replacement of interior ‘throw-away’ sheet of glass, without the need for tools.

5. LIGHT KITS: Includes 75 watt halogen bulbs, which provide excellent light, and enough heat to help keep media dry. Each kit has an added receptacle to receive vacuum power plug, so light switch will switch both.
• Single Deluxe ………………………………………….. $ 49.00
• Double Deluxe ………………………………………… $ 98.00
• Double with Uni-Housing …………………….….. $ 135.00 More commercial type w/ internal wiring & 2-pole rocker switch. Has same light output as Double Deluxe Light Kit.

6. HOPPER FUNNEL ADAPTER ………………..…………....… $ 57.00
Replaces the trap door at the base of the cabinet hopper, creating a smooth flow from cabinet to Metering Valve, while saving media, and aiding in quick media changes.

8. DOOR SHIELD …………………………….……………..….….... $ 42.00

9. BOLT REPLACEMENT KITS:
Low profile stainless steel rivet bolts that replace original assembly hardware for smooth inner seams. These replacement bolts are larger in diameter than the bolts that come with the cabinet, and are only 3/8” long.

• UPPER BOLT KIT – 34 Nut/Bolt Sets…………………...... $ 12.95

11. Cabinet Pressure FLOW METER (2nd Gen) ……..... $ 79.00
Allows operator to monitor negative vacuum pressure in the cabinet, which can then be adjusted with Waste Gate Valve and, secondarily, the Adjustable Air Intake Vent, to lower the cabinet pressure, such as would be required for light density media (like fine crushed glass), and the higher pressures for heavier media (like coarse garnet).

12. VACUUM WASTE GATE ………………………………………. $ 27.00
A secondary vacuum pressure relief valve that mounts to ShopVac®-type unit. Used for better pressure control when vacuum is high horsepower (over 3.5hp), in excess of what the Waste Gate Elbow (Option 3) can handle.

13. BLASTING GLOVES: [Available in Size: Medium, Large, or Extra-Large]
