Increasing Your GPM Increases Your Production

The Production Difference Between 6 Gallons (22.71 Liters) per Minute & 12 Gallons (45.42 Liters) per Minute

Horsepower = Cleaning Capacity

James Crocker, President of Waterblasting Technologies, discusses the advantages of 12 gallons (50.4 liters) per minute over 6 gallons (25.2 liters) per minute. When considering the purchase of water blasting equipment, it is imperative to understand the ability of the unit to produce a result in a given period of time. This is known as its’ working capacity.

Horsepower has the greatest influence on any machines capacity. To calculate Horsepower you must know the:

1) The pressure (PSI) or bar and,

2) The gallons/liters per minute

With a Stripe Hog model SH8000, it’s like buying two machines in one. Productivity and economies of scale are just two reasons why the world has chosen the Stripe Hog 15:1 in the last 8 years over JCL, Cyclone, Trackjet, NLB, Smets, Blasters, and Lavitra to name some of our competitors.
