Woodpeckers FTBG-SM Full Throttle

Product SummaryEfficient Airflow Inspired by the intake ports on top-fuel dragsters (where airflow restrictions are the difference between winning and losing), our engineers designed a high-efficiency butterfly valve. When the valve is open theres only the knife edge of the gate obstructing airflow and when its closed, it is nearly 100% blocked with little risk of debris getting in the way of full closure. Look inside the typical steel or plastic sliding gate and youll see a large portion of the airway blocked by the part of the gate that doesnt get out of the way. This not only restricts airflow, it also creates unwanted turbulence. Reduced Maintenance Typical blast gates have grooves for the gates to slide in. Those grooves collect chips like a magnet. Soon you have to fight the gate open and closed or stop everything and clean them out. FULLThrottles butterfly design eliminates the groove and the cleaning that goes with it. Better Mounting Options Ducts running overhead Put your FULLThrottle blast gates with the lever facing down. Ducts on the wall The lever can be placed on either side, the top or the bottom, whatever is convenient. No matter which way you mount it, you wont have gates opening when they shouldnt or vibrating closed in the middle of your job. And if its in a tight spot, opening the valve doesnt require 4-inch clearance beside the duct. Better Fit with Quick-Change Fittings Sometimes you dont want to connect a hose permanently. Maybe a couple machines have to share a hose, or leaving the hose in place all the time creates a tripping hazard. No matter what brand of quick-change coupling you have on your hose, it will fit the FULLThrottle. Easier Installation The taper that fits quick-change couplers also makes permanent installation of flexible hose easier. With a 2-inch clamping length (more than twice the clamping area of most other blast gates) and two tapered sections, youll always get a good seal, no matter what brand or style of flexible 4 hose youre using. Like all Woodpeckers products, FULLThrottle blast gates are proudly made and carefully inspected in our Strongsville, Ohio, manufacturing facility (just south of Cleveland).
