The Finespray Applicators 97715 and 97725 are high performance spray 
applicators and precision tools. They are designed for finest applications of low 
viscose Loctite Frekote

lower input and jet pressure and with higher air volume. The atomized spray (jet) is 
considerable finer and the overspray is lower. 
The applicator 97715 has a 90° flat fan, 97725 a 60° flat fan air cap. 
It is not suitable for spraying aggressive fluids, like acids, alkaline solutions, 
cleaning agents (chlorinated hydrocarbons) or chemicals. 
Always keep clean and observe minimum instructions to maintain a long useful life 
of the applicator. 
Depending on viscosity of fluid the following nozzle bores are available: 
∅ 0.3 and ∅ 0.8 mm (only one size of air cap is required).

position of jet. 
For special air caps with other spray angles please contact your LOCTITE
