Aircap, Needle, and Nozzle are the core components of a spray gun that work together to control paint flow, atomization, and spray pattern. The aircap directs compressed air to atomize the coating and shape the spray pattern, the needle regulates the flow of paint by moving inside the nozzle, and the nozzle (or fluid tip) determines the size and precision of the spray. Together, they ensure consistent, smooth, and professional-quality coating application, making them essential for automotive, industrial, furniture, and decorative painting applications.
