    Add these switches to your abrasive blasting hose to prevent it from spraying if the operator loses control. Also known as deadman switches, they prevent injuries and reduce wasted material by springing back to the off position when the operator lets go. All are for use with blasting systems that allow remote control blasting. Attach to your hose with hose clamps.

    These switches send an electric signal to the control panel on the blaster to stop the spray. Because the signal is electric, these switches respond quickly even when your hose is long. They're recommended for hose that's over 100-ft. long and required by OSHA standards for hose that's over 200-ft. long.
    Toggle Switch Actuator—Mount on top of your hose and control the toggle with your thumb. They’re smaller and lighter than switches with handle and trigger actuators, but harder to use with bulky gloves.
