Manual Air-Assist spray guns designed for
exceptional spray quality and ease of use.
Exceptional Spray Quality
Maximize efficiency and quality,
while reducing operator fatigue!
G15/G40 air-assist guns use the highest quality
components for long lasting reliable performance.
Most importantly, the G15/G40 guns deliver superior
spray performance while improving transfer efficiency
and reducing material usage.
G15/G40 guns have increased
durability and efficiency!
• AAF tip line is designed for soft spray and
improved transfer efficiency
• Longer-lasting needle packing – even with
abrasive materials
• More robust aircap retaining ring threads
Different Applications
Need Different Guns
G15 – 1500 psi models
designed for the wood
industry and other low
and medium pressure
applications
G40 – 4000 psi models
designed for high pressure
industrial applications
• All tips have a ring to retain the tip in the aircap
• Easier removal of the integrated gun fluid filter –
no threads or tools needed
• G15 aircap indexing offers increased durability

G40 RAC – A 4000 psi
model designed with a
Reverse-A-Clean tip for
high pressure applications
Reliable Performance
Merkur Air-Assist
Spray Quality
Achieve a Superior Finish
• Enhanced tip design creates uniform atomization for a
superior finish quality
• Unique aircap enables soft spray
• Lower fluid and air pressure design allows for increased
transfer effciency

waste, less VOC’s, and improved productivity
Ergonomics
Maximize Productivity
• Overall weight and gun balance is better than other spray
guns in its category
• Trigger pull force is ultra-light – reducing operator fatigue and
muscle stress
Packages
High Performance Finishing
