Resident expert John from SandBlastingMachines.com breaks down the Clemco PQV Pro Metering Valve Assembly, a pneumatically operated abrasive metering valve designed for blast machines.

The PQV Pro helps operators control abrasive flow by opening when blasting starts and closing when blasting stops for more precise media metering. Compatible with common abrasives from 16–220 mesh, including steel shot, aluminum oxide, garnet, glass bead, crushed glass, and more.

Available in multiple outlet pipe and ball valve configurations to fit a variety of blasting setups.

Meet the Clemco PipePro XL Series. Built to transform interior pipe blasting with faster production, safer operation, and consistent results.

The 360° rotating blast head uses dual nozzles mounted on a pneumatically powered rotating system to deliver uniform blasting across the entire interior pipe surface without rotating the pipe itself.

Available in two high performance models:

• PipePro XL 1631 for 16″ to 31″ I.D. pipe
• PipePro XL 1660 for 16″ to 60″ I.D. pipe

Designed for productivity, the PipePro XL significantly reduces blasting time compared to manual methods while delivering the consistent surface profiles required for reliable coating adhesion.

The compact design quickly integrates with existing blast hose systems, while the centering carriage with urethane wheels keeps the tool properly aligned inside the pipe. Operators can also fine tune head speed with simple air valve adjustments.

No mechanical pipe rotation. Reduced setup time. Lower accessory costs. Improved operator safety by minimizing confined space exposure.

For over 85 years, Clemco has helped prepare the surfaces behind some of the most advanced achievements in human history.

From aircraft and jets to the next generation of space exploration, precision surface preparation has played a role in helping heroes reach for the heavens.

Today, we recognize the crew of Artemis II as they carry that legacy forward. Their mission represents the next step in exploration, pushing boundaries and inspiring what comes next.

Here is to a safe journey to the moon and back.

Since 1941, Clemco portable blast machines have helped shipbuilders and marine contractors restore steel surfaces that stand up to the demands of the open sea.

From hulls and decks to structural components, effective surface preparation is what allows coatings to perform and vessels to deliver years of reliable service. Portable, durable, and built for demanding environments, Clemco blast machines go where the work happens and keep projects moving.

Decade after decade, shipyards have trusted Clemco to help bring maritime surfaces back to life and prepare them for what comes next.

Because every vessel’s performance starts with the surface.

From early stage development through full scale production, Clemco surface preparation solutions are engineered to support validated, repeatable processes at every step. In medical manufacturing, where performance, traceability, and compliance are essential, surface preparation cannot be left to chance.

Clemco works closely with manufacturers to define precise surface requirements during prototype phases, then designs systems that can scale seamlessly into production without introducing variability. Controlled media delivery, stable operating parameters, and cabinet configurations built for clean environments help ensure that what is validated in development remains consistent on the production floor.

The result is greater confidence from prototype to launch. Medical manufacturers can move forward knowing their surface preparation process is controlled, repeatable, and aligned with demanding industry standards.
