C.A. Technologies Lynx 100C Conventional Spray Gun — 2.2mm / 21-2167 Pressure Setup (L100C-22-2167)

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-22-2167 setup pairs the 31-0622 fluid nozzle (2.2mm) with the 21-2167 pressure air cap — delivering 14.5 CFM and a 12" pattern at 50 PSI. The 2.2mm orifice is the largest in the standard stainless steel external mix Lynx 100C pressure lineup, designed for very heavy body coatings including high solid enamels, thick primers, and production adhesives that exceed the flow capacity of 1.8mm pressure setups.

At a Glance

• Feed type: Pressure feed
• Best material types: Very heavy body coatings — high solid enamels, thick industrial primers, heavy adhesives, and high-viscosity materials that restrict through 1.8mm pressure setups
• Air use: 14.5 CFM @ 50 PSI — moderate-high, less than the 21-2266-3 at 16.2 CFM
• Pattern size: 12" — tighter than the 21-2266-3 range at 15", appropriate for the heavy materials this setup handles
• Why choose this setup: When your coating is genuinely too heavy for a 1.8mm pressure setup to flow consistently — the 2.2mm orifice provides the fluid opening to handle high solid and high viscosity materials without tip restriction
• Key included components: 31-0622 fluid nozzle, 40-1122 needle, 21-2167 air cap, 60-1500 fan control assembly

Technical Specifications

Best for This Setup

The L100C-22-2167 is the largest external mix stainless steel orifice available in the Lynx 100C pressure lineup — the configuration to reach for when heavy body industrial coatings, high solid automotive enamels, or thick production adhesives are genuinely restricting or sputtering through 1.8mm pressure setups. The 2.2mm fluid nozzle opens the fluid path wide enough to handle these materials at standard pot pressures without the spatter and inconsistency that comes from forcing viscous coatings through undersized tips. At 14.5 CFM the 21-2167 is actually less air-hungry than the 21-2266-3 series at 16.2 CFM — a counterintuitive but practical advantage for shops where compressor capacity is a constraint even on heavy body work. The 12" pattern is tighter than the 15" of the high-output pressure range, which is appropriate given the heavy materials this setup handles — a tighter fan is easier to control on thick coatings and reduces the risk of runs on vertical surfaces. If you're currently forcing a heavy solid epoxy or urethane through a 1.8mm setup and experiencing tip spatter, inconsistent pattern, or pressure drop at the gun, this is the upgrade path.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the L100C-22-2167 best for?

Very heavy body coatings including high solid enamels, thick industrial primers, and heavy production adhesives that restrict or spatter through 1.8mm pressure setups. The 2.2mm orifice is the largest external mix stainless steel tip in the Lynx 100C pressure lineup.

Is the L100C-22-2167 siphon or pressure feed?

Pressure feed. The 21-2167 is a pressure air cap designed for use with a pressure cup, pressure pot, or pressure tank. For internal mix at 2.2mm, see the L100C-22-201.

What air cap does the L100C-22-2167 use?

The 21-2167 pressure air cap — 14.5 CFM at 50 PSI, 12" maximum fan pattern. Designed for 2.2mm fluid tips on heavy body pressure feed applications.

What fluid nozzle and needle does this setup use?

The 31-0622 fluid nozzle (2.2mm / .086") paired with the 40-1122 needle (marked 122).

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.
