The Bobcat B711 takes the 0.011” orifice to its widest practical expression in the Bobcat system — a 70° angle producing a 14” pattern at ~13 oz/min at 1000 PSI. It’s the maximum-width configuration for fine lacquers, waterborne topcoats, and fine-to-medium coatings that require precise mil thickness control across the widest flat surfaces the Bobcat handles.

The 0.011” orifice group runs across six angles in the Bobcat lineup — from the 4” B211 to this 14” B711. Each step in the series is the same fluid delivery, same pressure requirement, same air draw — only the fan width changes. The B711 is the end of that progression: maximum coverage per pass for the finest practical coatings on the largest flat surfaces. Full-sheet wood panels, large metal substrates, and high-volume flat panel finishing lines where fine material quality and maximum width efficiency both matter.

Switching from B611 (12”) or B511 (10”) to the B711 carries the same pressure settings forward. Call or text 586-210-0555 to confirm the right fan width for your substrate before ordering.

Fluid Tip

36-711

0.011” orifice · 70° angle · ~14” pattern

Maximum-width configuration for 0.011” fine coatings — ~13 oz/min at 1000 PSI with 14” coverage for fine lacquers and waterborne topcoats on the largest flat panels. Field-replaceable tip.

Air Cap

26-101

AAA HVLP air cap · ≤18 PSI at handle

Same air cap as all Bobcat configurations. The 70° tip geometry controls fan width; the air cap refines atomization independently. Settings from B411, B511, or B611 carry directly to B711 on the same material.

Gun Type

AAA

Air Assist Airless · 1500 PSI max

Requires AAA pump (e.g., Peak 14:1). At 0.011”, fine lacquers and waterborne coatings atomize well at 500–800 PSI. The 70° angle does not change pressure requirements from narrower 0.011” tips.

Repair Kits

How does B711 compare to B611 and B511?

All three use the same 0.011” orifice and deliver ~13 oz/min at identical pressure. B511 = 50° for 10”; B611 = 60° for 12”; B711 = 70° for 14”. No pressure adjustment needed when switching between any of them on the same material. B711 is the maximum-width endpoint of the 0.011” series — choose based on your substrate width.

Can I carry my B611 settings over to the B711?

Yes — fluid pressure and air pressure settings transfer directly from B611 to B711 when spraying the same material. The 70° angle changes only the fan geometry. Swap the tip and gain 2” of additional coverage per pass, with no other adjustments needed.

Should I keep multiple 0.011” tips on hand?

Many finishing operations do. Keeping 36-411 (8”), 36-511 (10”), 36-611 (12”), and 36-711 (14”) on the same gun body means you can match fan width to substrate width instantly with the same material and zero pressure adjustments. This is one of the most efficient setups for mixed-width production lines.

What if I need a heavier material at 14” fan width?

The B715 uses 0.015” at 70° for 14” at ~22 oz/min, B717 uses 0.017” for ~29 oz/min, B719 uses 0.019” for ~36 oz/min, and B721 uses 0.021” for ~45 oz/min — all at 70° for the same 14” fan. Call or text 586-210-0555 to confirm the right orifice.

What repair kit does the Bobcat use?

10-137 covers routine maintenance — all o-rings and the seat. 10-138 is the complete kit adding the air valve assembly and needle seal cartridge. CET stocks both for same-day shipment. Most in-stock orders ship same day — stocked at C.A. Technologies’ Colorado facility.

Where can I find the Bobcat parts manual?
