Description

The 3000 EX measures 37 inches overall, including the 29-inch extension. The fan-shaped nozzle allows for even heating when applying preformed thermoplastic in any season, but especially in windy, wet spring months. The swivel hose connector prevents kinks and twisting. Using the 3000 EX to apply preformed thermoplastic pavement markings will reduce the likelihood that the surface glass beads will sink too much when heating. Other heat torches may put out so much concentrated heat in one spot that it is virtually impossible to control the embedment of the surface glass beads, which can result in lower initial retroreflectivity.

• Improved Power: The 3000 EX torch produces a minimum of 250,000 BTU, which speeds up application times by reducing the heat time required for a satisfactory bond
  
• Protection & Hose: Comes with a foam-padded plastic torch case to protect it during transport. Includes a 25-foot long hose with a $360^{\circ}$ swivel joint to prevent kinking and twisting
  
• Maintenance: A spare igniter is stored in the trigger guard compartment, allowing for easy replacement without tools or disassembling the torch.Ergonomics: Features a gel-coated comfort grip and a standard 29-inch extension from the handle
  
• Flame Quality: The nozzle shape allows for even heating of the material, and the steady, fan-shaped flame reduces scorching and splattering
  
• Control: An adjustable pressure valve provides simple control over the amount of propane used by the torch
