Novatek RPT with Star Cutters, 2" Air – RPT2AC

RPT2AC 2" Air RotoPeen with Star Cutters for Aggressive Steel and Concrete ProfilingThe Novatek RPT2AC is a 2" pneumatic hand-held scarifier fitted with carbon-steel star cutters and an integrated vacuum shroud. The star-cutter hub fractures thick mill scale, rust, and heavy coatings to expose a textured profile on steel and concrete, while the 1.5" vacuum port captures debris at the source. The 2" cutting width keeps the tool light enough for vertical sections, columns, and overhead work where a 4" head is hard to control. How the RPT2AC Star-Cutter Hub CutsStar cutters mounted on the quick-change hub strike the surface as the 1.2 HP air motor spins them at 2,700 RPM, chipping away material rather than abrading it. This makes the RPT2AC the right choice when flaps stall on hard scale, corrosion, or thick alkyd and epoxy buildup. The hub converts to a 3M RotoPeen flap hub in minutes when you move from heavy removal to a recoat profile. Star cutters fracture thick coatings, mill scale, and rust where flaps glaze over 2" working width controls weight for vertical, column, and overhead surface prep Runs on shop air at 30 CFM @ 90 PSI, no electrical hookup at the work face Integrated shroud with 1.5" vacuum port captures dust and chips for OSHA and EPA compliance when paired with a HEPA vacuum Quick-change hub swaps to 3M RotoPeen flaps in minutes for profile work Roller bed lets the head follow curved tanks, pipe, and deck transitions Works to within 1.5" of walls and obstructions RPT2AC Applications and EnvironmentsUse the RPT2AC for coating removal and surface profiling ahead of recoat on bridge steel, ship and barge decks, and structural members. It strips line-stripe and floor markings, lifts non-slip coatings, and prepares welds and patches. The shrouded design suits dust-controlled job sites, SSPC-NACE surface-prep contracts, and lead-paint removal where containment is required.
