Wagner · Authorized Distributor · Red Dot Award 2023
Reciprocator guns, robot guns, and legacy C4 support — all from one authorized Wagner distributor. Current-generation X1 guns share nozzles across automatic, robot, and manual platforms.
Speccing an automatic powder coating line? CET matches you to the right gun platform, mounting, and nozzle configuration.
Which Gun Do You Need
Wagner’s automatic guns are split by how they move: reciprocators/linear movers use the PEA-X1, robot arms use the PER-X1. Both share the same X1 gun core and nozzle ecosystem — the difference is mounting and cabling. If you’re running the legacy PEA-C4, the PEA-X1 is the direct retrofit.

The X1 Advantage
The biggest operational advantage of the X1 generation: if your facility runs reciprocators, robots, and manual touch-up, you stock one set of nozzles. Flat spray, deflector cones, CoronaStar, extensions, electrode holders, HC variants — all interchangeable across every X1 gun.
Common Questions
Reciprocator or robot?
Reciprocators (PEA-X1) for consistent shapes needing vertical travel. Robots (PER-X1) for varied geometry, multi-axis movement, and 3D scanning integration. Many facilities run both — the X1 platform means shared nozzles regardless.
I have PEA-C4 guns. What now?
The PEA-X1 is a direct drop-in retrofit. Improved coatings, lower powder consumption, reduced nozzle buildup. C4 nozzles are not X1-compatible — new nozzles required. CET helps plan the transition. See the C4 upgrade guide.
Same nozzles across all X1 guns?
Yes. PEA-X1, PER-X1, and PEM-X1 manual all share the X1 ecosystem: flat spray, deflector cones, CoronaStar, extensions, angled nozzles, HC variants. One inventory for your entire fleet.
What about manual guns?
The PEM-X1 is the hand-held variant of the X1 platform. Same cascade, same nozzles. Available as flat spray, round spray, cup gun, and spray pack. Pairs with Sprint 2 systems for complete manual setups.
