C.A. Technologies FE-Line Fine Finish HVLP Spray Gun — 1.5mm Setup (FEFF-15-1315)
Finish Excellence Line | Lightweight Fine Finish HVLP | US Made
The FE-Line Fine Finish (FEFF) is C.A. Technologies' lightweight ergonomic HVLP pressure feed spray gun, designed around the technology of the CAT SLP. The 1.5mm setup (FEFF-15-1315) pairs the 23-1315 air cap with the 33-0215 fluid tip and 40-1815 needle — the recommended configuration for higher-viscosity materials including high solid clears, sealers, primers, and epoxies where a larger orifice is needed to maintain proper flow without sacrificing the precision atomization the FE-Line is known for.
The FEFF's patented 12 Point Plenum design creates a more balanced, even cone of air as fluid is atomized — producing more uniform particles and a flatter, more consistent finish compared to conventional HVLP designs. Combined with all stainless steel fluid passages, a 15 oz. lightweight body, and 65% transfer efficiency or better, the FE-Line Fine Finish is built for operators who demand professional results with every pass.

Why the FE-Line Fine Finish?
Most HVLP guns rely on a standard air diffusion ring that creates uneven high and low pressure spikes around the fluid stream — resulting in inconsistent particle sizes and finishes. The FE-Line Fine Finish solves this with its patented 12 Point Balanced Plenum design, which distributes air evenly across all 12 points as the fluid is atomized. For higher-viscosity materials like high solid clears, sealers, and epoxies, the 1.5mm setup delivers enough fluid flow to handle the material while the 12 Point Plenum keeps atomization consistent and pattern coverage uniform.
- Built for higher-viscosity finishing materials — 1.5mm orifice handles high solid clears, sealers, primers, and epoxies without sacrificing atomization quality
- Patented 12 Point Plenum Design — creates a more even cone of air for superior atomization uniformity vs. conventional HVLP guns
- Lightweight ergonomic body — weighs only 15 oz., reducing operator fatigue in production environments
- 65% transfer efficiency or better — meets HVLP compliance requirements at 29 PSI inlet
- All stainless steel fluid passages — compatible with epoxies, urethanes, high solid clears, and industrial coating chemistries
- US Made — designed and manufactured by C.A. Technologies (Coating Atomization Technologies)
