EXAIR round air knives
EXAIR air wipes are designed to provide an efficient, uniform 360° airflow for blowoff, drying, cleaning and cooling. Air wipes are ideal for cylindrical, round or extruded surfaces such as pipes, cables, hoses and wires. The air wipes consist of two parts that are clamped together around the material, making installation quick and easy.
Which air wipe is best for your application?
Here is a comparison of EXAIR's two different types of air wipes - Super Air Wipe and Standard Air Wipe.

- Suitable for corrosive environments
Standard Air Wipe
- High performance with uniform airflow
- Rated for temperatures up to 65°C
- Two-piece construction for easy installation
- Suitable for non-corrosive environments
- Lower initial cost compared to Super Air Wipe
How EXAIR Air Wipes work
Compressed air flows through the inlet (1) on Air Wipe into an annular chamber (2). It is then choked through a small ring nozzle (3) at high speed. This primary air flow follows the Coanda profile (4), which guides it along the angled surface of the Air Wipe. A low pressure area is created in the centre (5), which induces a large volume flow of ambient air into the primary airflow. As the air stream exits the Air Wipe, it forms a cone-shaped 360° ring of air that adheres to the surface of the material passing through (6) and wipes the entire surface evenly at high speed.
