Worked great to clean my lawn tractor.

I bought this to clean my lawnmower's drive pulley mechanism by reaching into the pulley area without removing the mower deck. It worked great! And it has saved my body a lot of discomfort. You'll need to purchase an adapter to connect the hose to your air compressor, but that's to be expected, inexpensive, and easy to do.

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Faulty

Air has escaped from the piston nut under the lever.

Air leaked from the piston nut (valve under the lever) and you could feel the air rush into your hand. It is likely that the sealant was not applied to the threads during assembly. Otherwise it performed well, providing excellent access to high places, under car seats, and in tight spaces with small openings. Revain is already shipping a replacement item.

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • So-so

Works well but the handle design is bad!

Works reasonably well for its intended purpose, but the ergonomics of the handle are poorly designed, making it difficult to control under high pressure without causing much discomfort to the hand. It's not made of very high quality material, but for blowing lawnmowers, car radiators, etc. around the house, it'll do and your hand will hurt using this thing with a well-sized 25-gallon compressor. or more.

Pros
  • handy thing
Cons
  • repair

I hope the superglue lasts longer than the thread.

Bought because of positive reviews Used 7 seconds and the rubber tip broke and the filament snapped. I had the air pressure set at 110psi. I am very disappointed, even the $4 shipping took a month. This one cost over $10 with shipping and took 7 seconds. Let's hope JB Weld's superglue lasts another month like Harbor Freight did.

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Can't remember

Good price. Normal for infrequent light use.

As advertised, good for occasional work but not reliable enough for heavy use. Good value for money. The valve and its grip are flimsy compared to higher end blowguns. I bought this because I had a specific need, or at least thought I needed an extra long blowgun. I ended up using a shop vacuum for its intended purpose, but I don't mind shelling out some cash to have this blowgun in the airbox of my toolbox. I'm sure I'll find a use for it one day. If you're looking for an industrial or…

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Problems

Good for a single project or DIY

This is long. The description is actually 24 inches, but I didn't realize how much it was until I unpacked it. You will need teflon tape and an air connector. The print quality is mediocre. I have some cheap guns but they are all better then this one. The tip has a threaded screw but the nose is unthreaded. I don't care, I cut it anyway. Bought for specific work: blowing dust out of a concrete hole to install an anchor 4 stars for my needs and low price. If you are a professional, please note…

Pros
  • This is great
Cons
  • Some bugs

Make the threaded connection LONG

This is a great long range air pistol BUT the connection where the barrel threads into the valve body/grip is weak. This is my second long-barreled Hiltex air pistol. Both came loose in the joint of the stick on the first day of use. Teflon thread tape, aluminum tape, shrink wrap, LocTite, a bundle of plasters to fix the weak spot. Eventually the wand breaks. Or the loss of air in the thread area is so great that it renders the working end of the stick unusable. Ok Hiltex. We use these things…

Pros
  • Excellent overall
Cons
  • Doubtful

Light and efficient

I bought this to keep my eyes off the high velocity air used for cleaning. He does it. What I wasn't expecting was the torque since the air jet was 24 inches from the handle. No problem, it just surprised me the first time I used it. What bothered me was the small tip diameter. I believe this results in a higher air exit rate but at a lower volume than what comes out of the regular air nozzle I used. But for removing dirt from the floor and getting into tight spaces, it works great. I have…

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
