Pneumatic Needle Scalers with 19 Needles for Marine Rust Removal

This industrial-grade pneumatic needle scaler is designed for heavy-duty surface preparation in marine and shipbuilding environments. Equipped with 19 high-carbon steel needles, it efficiently removes rust, paint, weld slag, and casting protrusions from steel hulls, decks, and other metal structures. The tool's high impact rate of 4500 blows per minute ensures rapid scaling and cleaning of large or irregular surfaces, making it an essential tool for shipyards, offshore platforms, and steel fabrication workshops.

The needle scaler features a durable aluminum housing and a comfortable grip for extended use. It operates on standard compressed air systems, requiring a 1/4-inch PT air inlet and 3/8-inch ID air hose. With a recommended air compressor power of 2 HP and an air consumption of 5 CFM, it delivers consistent performance. The 19 needles (3mm diameter) are replaceable, extending the tool's service life. This tool is ideal for surface preparation before painting, welding, or inspection.
