Airsweep R3 is a composite laminating tool for placement of prepregs and fabrics onto molds. Airsweep R3 has been ergonomically designed to fit the hand more comfortably, so even pressure can be applied into sharp corners easily with reduced operator fatigue. Airsweep R3 is manufactured from abrasion resistant non-contaminating nylon. Also available in UHMW PE as the Airsweep R2.

Benefits:

• Apply even pressure accurately to tight corners to eliminate fabric bridging and avoid part rework.

• Handle design applies palm pressure, reducing finger fatigue.

• Non-contaminating material avoids FOD in layups.
