This SiAlON XL poly jacket nozzle threads onto any 50mm (2″) contractor-thread nozzle holder.
This high-performance SiAlON XL nozzle with Poly Jacket is made of a lightweight SiAlON material that offers service life and durability similar to tungsten carbide at only half the weight. In other words, SiAlON is perfect for long jobs. This XL nozzle features aluminum contractor threads. These threads are 50mm or 2 inches. If you need standard thread however, we have that over HERE!
Why buy a SiAlON XL Nozzle?
- These nozzles accelerate your media over a longer distance (about 12 inches worth of nozzle!)
- Because the media achieves higher exit velocities, you can stand further away from the surface being blasted (helps with high walls or ceilings)
- By producing a larger blast pattern you increase your production rates. (AKA reduced abrasive and labor costs)
- SiAlON is half the weight but just as strong as Tungsten carbide
- These nozzles do not require any more CFM from your compressor
- Last but not least, a foot long nozzle looks cool!

Disclaimer:
It is recommended that nozzles with aluminum threads, like these, are not to be used with aluminum nozzle holders as they will become stuck or inseparable. Instead, try using our Nylon Nozzle Holders for Contractor Threads. SiAlON XL are not for use with steel grit. For steel grit, please consider one of our Boron nozzles. For more information about nozzle materials, check out our page on nozzle materials.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is SiAlON?
A lightweight ceramic nozzle material with service life and durability similar to tungsten carbide at about half the weight. That makes the SiAlON XL poly jacket nozzle easier on blasters over long jobs.
Why is the SiAlON XL poly jacket nozzle 12″ long?
The extra length accelerates abrasive over a longer distance. Higher exit velocity lets you stand farther from the surface and produces a larger blast pattern, which means less abrasive and labor per square foot.
Can I use a SiAlON XL poly jacket nozzle with steel grit?
No. For steel grit, use a boron carbide nozzle such as our Boron Long Venturi.
Which nozzle coupling should I use?
A nylon nozzle coupling. Aluminum threads can seize in aluminum nozzle holders and become inseparable.
Aluminum or poly jacket?
Both use the same 12″ SiAlON liner and aluminum contractor threads. Choose by jacket preference and the sizes you need: the poly version comes in #10, and the aluminum version comes in #4 and #7.
Need a size or thread that isn’t listed?
