C.A. Technologies Lynx 100C Conventional Spray Gun — 1.3mm / 21-2266-3 Pressure Setup (L100C-13-2266-3)

100 Series Conventional General Purpose | US Made

The Lynx 100C (L100C) is C.A. Technologies' high quality general purpose conventional spray gun, available in both pressure and siphon feed configurations. The L100C-13-2266-3 setup pairs the 31-0613 fluid nozzle (1.3mm) with the 21-2266-3 pressure air cap — delivering 16.2 CFM and a full 15" pattern at 50 PSI. The 1.3mm orifice in the highest-output standard pressure air cap gives this configuration excellent production coverage speed for automotive coatings, standard enamels, and adhesives while maintaining precise fluid control.

At a Glance

• Feed type: Pressure feed
• Best material types: Automotive base coats, single-stage enamels, medium body adhesives, and production coatings requiring maximum pattern width at a controlled orifice size
• Air use: 16.2 CFM @ 50 PSI — highest demand in the standard pressure range; requires a compressor capable of sustaining 16+ CFM
• Pattern size: 15" — maximum pattern width in the Lynx 100C pressure lineup
• Why choose this setup: When you need the production speed of the 21-2266-3's 15" pattern but your material is at a viscosity where the 1.2mm restricts slightly and the 1.5mm risks over-application
• Key included components: 31-0613 fluid nozzle, 40-1110 needle, 21-2266-3 air cap, 60-1500 fan control assembly

Technical Specifications

Best for This Setup

The L100C-13-2266-3 is the production pressure configuration for automotive and industrial shops that need the 21-2266-3's full 15" pattern and 16.2 CFM output but want the fluid precision of a 1.3mm orifice rather than the 1.2mm or 1.8mm endpoints of that air cap range. In high-volume automotive refinishing, the 1.3mm nozzle is a well-established sweet spot for single-stage urethane enamels and base coats — enough orifice to flow the material freely at standard pot pressures without the thin-material flooding risk that comes from going to 1.5mm on lower-viscosity coatings. The 21-2266-3's 15" fan and 16.2 CFM deliver genuine production-speed coverage across full vehicle panels and large flat surfaces. The setup also sees use in industrial adhesive applications where a medium orifice at high air volume gives consistent wet-out across wide surfaces. Note that 16.2 CFM is the highest air demand in the standard Lynx 100C pressure range — confirm your compressor can sustain that output before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the L100C-13-2266-3 best for?

Automotive base coats, single-stage urethane enamels, and medium body industrial adhesives where maximum 15" pattern width and high production speed are the priority through pressure feed. The 1.3mm orifice sits between the fine 1.2mm and the broader 1.5mm for precise fluid control at full output.

Is the L100C-13-2266-3 siphon or pressure feed?

Pressure feed. The 21-2266-3 is a pressure air cap designed for use with a pressure cup, pressure pot, or pressure tank. For siphon at 1.3mm, see the L100C-13-2266.

What air cap does the L100C-13-2266-3 use?

The 21-2266-3 pressure air cap — 16.2 CFM at 50 PSI, 15" maximum fan pattern. Compatible with 0.6mm through 1.8mm fluid tips.

What fluid nozzle and needle does this setup use?

The 31-0613 fluid nozzle (1.3mm / .051") paired with the 40-1110 needle (marked 110). The 110 needle is shared with 1.0mm setups.

What repair kit fits the Lynx 100C?

Repair kit 10-106 covers all Lynx 100C configurations. It includes all wear seals, o-rings, springs, and needle seal components needed for a full gun rebuild.
