Yes. Although there are many forms of hydro blasting. This is shotgunning. Theres: shotgunning, flex lancing, stiff lancing, line moling, 3d, automation. A pressure washer could cut you. A 10k WILL cut you. Possible amputation.
It's referring to a 3way directional nozzle, AKA a 3D. There are different kinds and types for different kinds of pipes or tanks known by names such as a 2D, 3D, barracuda, badger, banshee, etc but they all clean with high pressure water.
Definitely could’ve! Seen it done before. You keep the lid on there with some screws then throw the 3D in there, screw the the lid to cover just enough to come out on the sides and let the 3D work.
Good afternoon, how are you ? Do you hire employees from other countries to work in your company? I have experience with high pressure pumps and also in hydrojetting. I would like an opportunity.
@@Colby-cy7sla 2d would be better but then you have the issue that the pipe is laying horizontal. You’d have to find a way to hang it in the middle. It’s really just easier to shotgun.
Shitty job but it pays the bills. Hats off to fellow hydroblasters and vacuum technicians! Rain , sleet or snow we're out there doing it!

@@sunobl1112typically I jet 22k @24gpm shotgunning for coating removals got a jetstream
Going around the circumference makes the middle easier
Why not just put a 3D in there? Ain't no way ill do this job with a shotgun
What do you mean by 3d?
Same thing I said. No way

This look like a bs job ill pass
Good old days wheres this at?

They use the parraguda nozzle to clean the pipe
bjv with a pipe check would of done it
For those saying just use a 3d. It would take way longer to 3d. More than half the time the nozzle won’t be focused on the product.
What about a 2d like a spider
That’s what we use on shells
@@Colby-cy7sla 2d would be better but then you have the issue that the pipe is laying horizontal. You’d have to find a way to hang it in the middle. It’s really just easier to shotgun.
I didn't come to see if I could , Shit I came to get it done 😜

At least $15 an hour nowadays. In Louisiana at least
I think I him

Nope, they train you to listen to where the water hits
Why not use a 3D?? Work smarter
