Product Name: Collar, Adjustable Nozzle Body, P-III (Part No. 100027-2)

Description:
This component is the collar (lock nut) for the adjustable P-III series nozzle body in 60,000 PSI (approximately 4,137 bar) waterjet cutting systems. It is a precision-machined stainless steel ring designed to thread onto the adjustable nozzle body (P/N 100027-1). Its primary function is to secure the internal cutting head components, locking the adjustable gland in place after the abrasive feed line orientation has been set . This ensures that the mixing chamber remains tight and the abrasive inlet stays fixed in the optimal direction during operation, preventing loosening due to vibration.

Applications:

• Securing the internal components of the P-III adjustable nozzle body assembly.

• Locking the position of the abrasive inlet port after alignment.

• Suitable for 60,000 PSI ultra-high pressure waterjet cutting systems.

Features:

• Stainless Steel Construction: Manufactured from corrosion-resistant stainless steel for durability in harsh waterjet environments .

• Precision Machining: Engineered to exact tolerances for a perfect thread fit with the P-III adjustable nozzle body (100027-1).

• Critical Locking Function: Provides the necessary counter-force to keep the adjustable gland tight and the abrasive feed line orientation fixed.

• 60,000 PSI Rating: Engineered for continuous ultra-high pressure operation.

Maintenance:

• Thread Care: Inspect threads for wear, galling, or damage during assembly. Damaged threads compromise the locking force and seal integrity .

• Lubrication: Apply a thin layer of high-pressure thread lubricant or anti-seize compound during installation to prevent galling and ensure accurate torque application .

• Inspection: Periodically check the collar for signs of loosening during routine machine inspections.

• Replacement Criteria: Replace the collar immediately if threads are damaged, if the hex flats (if present) are rounded, or if any cracks are visible.

• Full Depressurization: Always fully depressurize the waterjet system and follow lockout/tagout procedures before tightening or loosening the collar.
