Waterjets Blast Away Rubber from Airport Runways, Remove Stripes from Highways, Clean Ship Decks

Waterjets make quick work out of the world's toughest cleaning applications.

They blast away rubber from airport runways, zip through layers of corrosion and old coatings on ship decks, and remove old highway stripes in the blink of an eye.

And unlike a sandblaster, they do all this hard work without kicking up tons of dust - making them ideal for sensitive marine environments, as well as a worker-friendly alternative to sandblasters.

Jet Edge's Ultra Deckblaster mows over the competition by combining waterjet blasting technology with the simplicity of a walk-behind lawnmower style design.  Instead of a blade, the Deckblaster features a spray bar with multiple waterjets that are pressurized to 55,000+ psi by a Jet Edge hydraulic intensifier pump.

Water Jet Machine Removes Coatings, Grease from Concrete Floors, Steel Decks

Jet Edge’s Ultra Deckblaster waterjet surface preparation machine uses ultra-high pressure waterjets to quickly blast away old paint, coatings, grease and dirt from steel decks and concrete floors without using hazardous chemicals.

Resembling a lawnmower, the self-propelled Ultra Deckblaster operates at pressures up to 55,000 psi (3,800 bar). Typical applications include removal of polyurethane paint or nonskid coatings from factory floors, ship decks, paint booths and parking ramps. The Ultra Deckblaster also removes accumulated spillage such as grease, oil and overspray.

The Ultra Deckblaster portable water jet system utilizes UHP water supplied by a Jet Edge waterjet intensifier pump. Hydraulic pressure activates the motor to spin the spray bar assembly and open a high-flow water valve supplying fluid to the manifolds. The water travels through a high-pressure on/off valve and high-speed swivel before entering the rotating spray bar. Multiple waterjet orifices direct UHP water over an 18” (46 cm) wide cleaning path as the machine advances. The spray bar accepts a variety of standard jet manifolds.

Operators have total control of the rotation speed, drive speed, forward/off/reverse, water and rotation on/off of the spray bar. Easily accessible knobs control forward/reverse and bar rotation speeds. A manually actuated valve does not allow operation of any function unless the safety lever is depressed. The hydraulic-powered wheel drive (self-propelled drive) offers additional operator control and comfort and can be easily disengaged for free-rolling applications. The spray bar height is adjustable.
