C.A. Technologies Panther 100G — P100G-15-2266-3T (1.5mm Nozzle, 2266-3T Air Cap)

The C.A. Technologies Panther 100G P100G-15-2266-3T is a 1.5mm PTFE coated conventional pressure feed spray gun paired with the 21-2266-3T air cap — one of C.A. Technologies’ top recommended configurations for adhesive spraying at medium-to-heavy viscosities. The 21-2266-3T PTFE coated air cap at 16.2 SCFM delivers a wide 15" fan pattern under pressure, making this setup ideal for production adhesive application, high solid enamels, urethanes, and epoxies where consistent coverage and easy cleanup are both priorities. Used daily by furniture manufacturers, cabinet shops, and industrial finishing operations spraying contact cements and finish coatings across large substrate areas. All stainless steel fluid passages. US made. Call or text 586-210-0555 for setup guidance and availability before you order.

Application

CET Application Match — Best for This Setup

The P100G-15-2266-3T is a CET Preferred Setup for adhesive and finish coating applications where the PTFE coated air cap’s non-stick surface and wide fan pattern deliver a real production advantage. Based on over 20 years supplying industrial finishing equipment, CET’s technical team regularly specifies this configuration for cabinet shops and furniture manufacturers spraying contact cements and urethane adhesives across panel goods — the 15" fan width at 16.2 SCFM covers large substrate areas efficiently, and the PTFE coating on the 21-2266-3T keeps the air cap face clean through extended runs.

The 1.5mm orifice sits at the upper end of the medium viscosity range, handling materials from automotive base coats and epoxy primers through to heavier contact cements and high solid urethanes. For the thickest adhesives, the 1.8mm version (P100G-18-2266-3T) provides additional flow capacity — CET’s technical team can help determine which orifice is right for your specific material.

• Cabinet and furniture shops: 1.5mm at 16.2 SCFM delivers wide, even fan coverage for contact cement application on panel goods and case goods production
• High solid enamels and urethanes: Pressure feed with PTFE air cap handles medium-to-heavy finish coatings cleanly across large surface areas
• Production adhesive lines: PTFE coating on gun body and air cap resists adhesive buildup and keeps cleanup time short between color or material changes
• Epoxy and specialty coatings: All stainless steel fluid passages and PTFE body provide full chemical resistance for aggressive formulations

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the advantage of the 21-2266-3T over other pressure air caps for adhesives?

The 21-2266-3T combines the highest SCFM of any standard pressure air cap in the P100G lineup (16.2 SCFM) with a PTFE coating on the air cap face. The PTFE prevents adhesive from bonding to the cap, keeping the spray pattern consistent during production runs and dramatically reducing cleanup time after sticky materials. C.A. Technologies specifically recommends this cap for adhesive applications — it’s the top choice when both performance and cleanup speed matter.

What is the difference between the P100G-15-2266-3T and P100G-18-2266-3T?

Both use the same 21-2266-3T PTFE coated pressure air cap at 16.2 SCFM. The difference is the fluid orifice: 1.5mm vs 1.8mm. The 1.5mm suits medium-to-heavy viscosity materials in the 21–30 sec. Zahn #2 range. The 1.8mm is the better choice for thicker adhesives and high solid coatings over 30 sec. Zahn #2. Not sure which fits your material? Call or text CET at 586-210-0555.

Does the PTFE coating wear off the air cap over time?

The PTFE hard coat is an anodized coating, not a surface film — it’s integrated into the aluminum rather than applied on top. It provides durable, long-lasting non-stick performance under normal production use. Replacement air caps are available when needed through CET’s spare parts inventory.

What repair kit does the Panther 100G use?

All Panther 100G configurations use repair kit 10-110, which includes all wear seals, o-rings, springs, and needle seal components for a complete rebuild. Call or text 586-210-0555 to confirm availability for same-day shipment.

Can I upgrade to a carbide nozzle for abrasive materials?

The carbide nozzle range for the Panther 100G starts at 1.8mm — the 31-0618V. If you’re spraying abrasive materials and need a 1.5mm orifice, contact CET’s technical team to discuss options — call or text 586-210-0555.

Where can I find the full Panther 100G parts manual?

The CET Difference

Why Choose the Panther 100G

PTFE Coated Durability for Demanding Applications

The Panther 100G is the only gun in the C.A. Technologies conventional lineup with a PTFE hard coat on both the gun body and air cap. This matters most when spraying adhesives, contact cements, and other sticky or aggressive coatings that tend to foul standard aluminum gun bodies and air cap faces.

• PTFE hard coat body & air cap: Prevents adhesive from bonding to surfaces, dramatically reducing cleaning time and extending component life.
• All stainless steel fluid passages: Full chemical resistance across solvent-based, waterborne, and aggressive adhesive formulations.
• Heavy duty needle spring: Maintains consistent trigger response and needle return under continuous production use.
• Forged aluminum body: Lightweight and durable — built for all-day production use without fatigue.
• 17 air cap options: From 0.6mm siphon to 2.8mm pressure — one platform covers the full range of coating viscosities.
