Nozzles for the paper industry - Cleaning (high and low pressure showers)

Generally two types of contaminant need to be cleaned from the felt or wire.  Sticky substances (glues, latexes or hot melts) or fibres.  Stickies will normally require high pressure solid stream nozzle showers to remove them.  In most cases fibres can be cleaned with and array of flat fan nozzles.

SNP offer a range of flat fan and solid stream nozzles for use in wash showers. SNP are the exclusive UK distributors for specialist trim and high pressure cleaning nozzle manufacturer ML Gatewood.  For high pressure washing these nozzles can be made with ceramic or ruby orifices for extra wear resistance.  We also produce a fully-made shower unit - the Thunder Shower.
