Novatek 28XN5ST 5 Ft Long Reach with Needle Attachment — Full Reach, Steel Barrel

The 28XN5ST is a 5-foot air-powered needle scaler on a steel barrel. It drives 28 chisel-tip needles to strip rust and scale off high walls and overhead structural steel from the floor, with steel construction built for heavy, repeated impact. The needle head conforms to welds, pits, corners, and contoured surfaces a flat chisel cannot reach.

Why Crews Run the 28XN5ST

Full 5-foot reach plus steel durability for sustained rust and scale removal on uneven steel. The sliding front tube takes up needle wear so the working face holds as the 3mm needles shorten. Where overhead carry weight is the constraint, the aluminum 28XN5AL drops weight on the same frame.

  • Strip rust and scale off high walls and overhead steel from the floor — no ladder or scaffold
  • Steel barrel and steel ball retainer hold up to heavy repeated impact
  • 28 chisel-tip needles conform to welds, pits, and contoured surfaces a flat chisel skips
  • Drives needles at 2,200 blows per minute
  • Sliding front tube adjusts for needle wear as the 3mm needles shorten
  • Runs on 5 SCFM from a portable compressor

28XN5ST Applications and Environments

Marine deck, hull, and weld-seam descaling, overhead structural steel rust removal, factory and warehouse coating stripping, and tank cleaning. The steel barrel suits heavy sustained impact; the needle head suits pitted and contoured surfaces.

Frequently Asked Questions

Steel or aluminum for the 5 ft needle scaler?
The 28XN5ST is steel: durable under heavy repeated impact. The aluminum 28XN5AL has the same 5-foot reach and 28-needle head with a lighter barrel for overhead work.
Needle or chisel attachment?
The 28XN5ST uses 28 chisel-tip needles that conform to welds, pits, and contoured surfaces. For flat coating and tile removal, the chisel 28XC5ST is the better choice.
What about needle wear?
The sliding front tube adjusts for needle wear, holding the working face as the 3mm needles shorten with use.
Why the 5 ft reach?
The 5-foot barrel reaches high walls and overhead steel from the floor without a ladder or scaffold. A 2 ft model suits closer floor and low-wall work.
