MAX Professional 5L Formwork Sprayer – Chemical Resistant Viton Seals & Flat-Jet Nozzle

MAX Professional 5L Formwork Sprayer

The MAX Professional 5L Formwork Sprayer is a heavy-duty pressure sprayer built specifically for applying concrete release agents, curing compounds, and similar construction chemicals in formwork operations. Unlike general-purpose water sprayers, it is engineered with FPM (Viton®) seals and an oil-resistant hose to withstand the chemical demands of professional concreting work.

With a 5-litre fill capacity, 3 bar operating pressure, and a 360° adjustable flat-jet lance, it delivers consistent, even coverage across formwork panels, reducing overspray, minimising product waste, and keeping the application process controlled and efficient.

 Why Choose the 5L Formwork Sprayer

• Viton® seals: chemically resistant to release agents and curing compounds that would degrade standard rubber seals

• Flat-jet nozzle: delivers even, fan-shaped coverage across wide formwork surfaces rather than a concentrated stream

• 360° adjustable lance: allows precise application at any angle without repositioning the tank

• Oil-resistant hose: safe for use with oil-based release agents and similar chemicals

• Integrated dirt filter: prevents nozzle clogging during continuous site use

• Ergonomic pump handle: reduces hand fatigue during repeated pressurisation

Why Viton Seals Matter

Standard sprayers often fail when exposed to release agents and oils due to seal breakdown. Viton (FPM) seals resist swelling and degradation, helping maintain performance and preventing leaks over time.

Flat-Jet Nozzle Efficiency

Flat-jet nozzles provide a wide, even spray pattern across surfaces. This improves coverage, reduces chemical waste, and delivers a more consistent finish on formwork and shuttering.

Chemical Compatibility

Who Is This For?

The Professional Formwork Sprayer 5 Litre is designed for trade and professional use on construction sites. It is suited for:

• Concrete contractors and formwork gangs

• Civil engineering and infrastructure projects

• Groundworkers and in-situ concrete teams

• Site managers overseeing formwork operations

• Any contractor regularly applying release agents or curing compounds

It is a professional-grade tool. It is not intended for domestic or garden use.

Typical Applications

• Applying release agents to formwork panels before pouring concrete

• Applying curing compounds to freshly poured concrete slabs and surfaces

• Applying oil-based mould release to shuttering boards and steel forms

• Spraying water-based chemicals in concrete preparation and finishing

How to Use

1. Fill the tank through the filling funnel, do not exceed the 5-litre fill capacity

2. Secure the cap fully before pumping

3. Pump the handle to build pressure up to the operating level (max 3 bar / 44 PSI)

4. Adjust the lance to the required angle using the 360° rotation

5. Open the shut-off valve and apply the chemical using a steady, sweeping motion

6. Keep the nozzle at a consistent distance from the surface for even flat-jet coverage

7. Close the shut-off valve when not actively spraying to maintain pressure

Safety & Maintenance

During Use

• Always wear appropriate PPE when handling concrete release agents or curing compounds, refer to the product's Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for specific requirements

• Do not exceed 3 bar (44 PSI) operating pressure

• Keep the shut-off valve closed when moving between application areas

• Do not use with strong solvents or acids, check compatibility before filling

After Use

• Release residual pressure before opening the cap

• Rinse the tank, hose, and lance thoroughly with clean water after every use

• Check the integrated dirt filter for debris and clear if required

• Inspect seals periodically, Viton® seals are chemical resistant but should be replaced if cracking or leaking is observed

• Store upright in a cool, dry location, away from direct sunlight

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes this sprayer suitable for release agents?
The Viton seals resist oils and chemicals, preventing failure during use.

Why use a flat-jet nozzle instead of a standard nozzle?
It provides even coverage, reducing waste and improving application quality.

Can this be used with oils and chemicals?
Yes, it is designed specifically for oil-based and chemical liquids.

Is this suitable for daily site use?
Yes, it is built for professional and continuous use in construction environments.

What pressure does it operate at?
Up to 3 bar for consistent application.

What is the best sprayer for applying concrete release agents?
A sprayer with Viton (FPM) seals is recommended, as it resists oils and chemicals. The MAX 5L Formwork Sprayer is designed specifically for this application.
