This horizontal mounting kit is a purpose-designed accessory for securely mounting Force 5 Megablaster blowguns to a flat, horizontal surface such as the top of an air compressor, workbench, or equipment housing. It provides a stable, permanent storage and ready-use solution, keeping the blowgun easily accessible while protecting it from damage when not in use.
Designed specifically to suit the Force 5 Megablaster, the mounting system supports the blowgun at two critical points to ensure excellent stability. At the nozzle end, a rubber cone sits inside the Venturi tip, centering the blowgun and preventing unwanted movement or vibration. This cone also helps absorb shock and reduces metal-to-metal contact, extending the life of the tool while keeping it securely positioned.
At the handle end, the blowgun is locked into place using a retaining pin that passes through the end of the handle. This positive mechanical retention ensures the blowgun cannot be knocked loose during operation around the compressor or work area. The result is a mounting solution that holds the blowgun firmly in place, even in busy, high-vibration environments.
The kit is manufactured in Australia from powdercoated steel, providing excellent strength, durability, and corrosion resistance. The powdercoated finish is well suited to harsh workshop, industrial, and outdoor conditions, ensuring long service life even when exposed to dust, moisture, and regular handling. Felt pads are integrated into the mounting points to protect the blowgun’s finish and prevent wear or abrasion where the tool contacts the bracket.
Mounting hardware suitable for sheet metal installation is included, making it easy to fit directly to compressor tanks, panels, or other flat steel surfaces. Installation is straightforward and requires no modification to the blowgun itself. Once installed, the mount keeps the Megablaster stored safely off the ground, reducing the risk of damage, contamination, or accidental misuse.
Typical applications include fixed compressor installations in workshops, industrial facilities, agricultural sheds, and service vehicles where the blowgun is used frequently throughout the day. Having the Megablaster mounted in a consistent, easy-to-reach location improves workflow efficiency and encourages proper storage habits, reducing downtime and tool damage.
This horizontal mounting kit has become an incredibly popular accessory for the Force 5 Megablaster due to its simplicity, reliability, and practical design. It transforms the blowgun from a loose accessory into a permanently mounted air tool, always ready for use and always stored safely. For operators who rely on their Megablaster daily, this mounting kit is a highly practical upgrade that improves both convenience and equipment longevity.
