  • Faster than TE10

Air Cap T110 – clear coats with higher solids

  • clear coats (with higher solids)
  • Glass finishing

The air pressure depends on a number of factors, including the fluid being sprayed and whether the fluid control is fully open or not. The following pressure settings are a good starting point:
HV30 1.5 – 1.75 bar [22-25 psi]
TE10/20, T110: 1.5 – 2 bar [22-29 psi]

Does the Devilbiss GTi Pro Lite TE10 air cap fit the Tekna Pro Lite Gun?

Yes. The general design of both guns is the same. The Tekna Pro Lite spray gun has a different (black) surface coating for faster cleaning and has no air valve at the bottom/next to the air inlet.

Devilbiss GTi Pro vs GTi Pro Lite air caps – Is there a difference?

GTi Pro air caps: H1, T1, T2 (part no: PRO-100-XX)
GTi Pro Lite air caps: HV30, TE10, TE20 etc. (part no: PRO-102-XXXX)
