To achieve the optimum force from a can of duster, spray a short three to five-second blast at room temperature. When an aerosol duster is sprayed continuously, it acts as an efficient heat sink and will cool down. This lowering of the can temperature also lowers the internal pressure of the can, which will greatly decrease the generated force.

Air Duster, also called “canned air”, “compressed air”, and “dusting gas”, is used to provide a pressurized blast, knocking loose dust and dirt. Think of it as a portable replacement for an air compressor line. This accessory can be used to blow cookie crumbs out from a keyboard, clear out computer vents, and even open up tight apertures in an SMT (surface mount technology) stencil in PCB assembly. It’s one of those products that seems simple, but leads people to many misconceptions. In this article, we’ll cover the most common questions and misconceptions about duster.

As the above details demonstrate, care needs to be taken even when choosing an everyday consumable like a duster. Reach out to us or your distributor for help deciding which duster is right for your application.

There is a misconception based on old information that dusters hurt the ozone layer. Dusters contained CFC’s over 20-years ago, but have since been replaced with materials that do not impact the ozone layer.
