[Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) # Applicators Engineered to Last & Provide Maximum Performance **In this edition of Cold Jet Academy, we are going to a look at the differences between the various dry ice blasting applicators available for our machines.**   Cold Jet's dry ice blasting accessories are engineered to the same exacting standards as our machines. Our applicators are no exception! A variety of applicators were developed for durability, comfort, safety, and simplicity. This ensures the best tool for targeted applications for daily use by operators. As we are constantly updating our product portfolio, we will keep you informed about the latest applicators, which are the link between man and machine.    [![SEARCH PARTS & ACCESSORIES](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/3271929/01e3b628-048d-46b0-b555-c96317c1823e.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/3271929/01e3b628-048d-46b0-b555-c96317c1823e)   --- ### Multi-Function Applicator   ### [![MultiFunction](https://blog.coldjet.com/hs-fs/hubfs/MultiFunction.png?width=250&height=174&name=MultiFunction.png)](https://www.coldjet.com/product-catalog/?type=accessories&id=196) These applicators offer a greater level of control when blasting. The operator can easily adjust blasting parameters at the applicator with the ability to control dry ice feed rate, blasting pressure, and particle size (PCS 60 only). They also offer three dimming light levels and the ability to blast with dry ice + air or air only to help corral debris, among other things.     ---   ### **Heavy Duty Applicator** ### [**![HeavyDutyApplicator1](https://blog.coldjet.com/hs-fs/hubfs/HeavyDutyApplicator1.png?width=250&height=201&name=HeavyDutyApplicator1.png)**](https://www.coldjet.com/product-catalog/?type=accessories&id=278)   Our Heavy Duty applicators are built to endure tough environments. They offer sealed electrical switches, a tough outer  shell, and designed water release channels to protect against moisture, grit and drop damage. It also has several safety features including a hand guard and a single finger safety trigger.     --- ### Lightweight & Compact Applicator     ### [![MC2 Applikator](https://blog.coldjet.com/hs-fs/hubfs/MC2%20Applikator.png?width=150&height=234&name=MC2%20Applikator.png)](https://www.coldjet.com/product-catalog/?type=accessories&id=182)     Ergonomic design allows for easy use in tight-access applications, reducing arm fatigue. The applicator also features a hopper level indicator that alerts the user when the dry ice supply is getting low. It is also designed for both right and left handed users.         ---   [![SEARCH PARTS & ACCESSORIES](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/3271929/01e3b628-048d-46b0-b555-c96317c1823e.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/3271929/01e3b628-048d-46b0-b555-c96317c1823e)   ---   Click [here](https://blog.coldjet.com/cold-jet-academy?utm_campaign=Cold%20Jet%20Academy%20-%20External&utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&_hsenc=p2ANqtz--VpLeGdjtwfWtOQJO48w-EWX29f2H-4oBP8ZFGILxRSVmxJej7P5sGdxPhCKvB6IZZmdpv) to access previous editions of Cold Jet Academy.   --- [![CJ ACADEMY FOR CUSTOMERS EMAIL SIGNATURE CJ CONNECT (003)](https://blog.coldjet.com/hs-fs/hubfs/CJ%20ACADEMY%20FOR%20CUSTOMERS%20EMAIL%20SIGNATURE%20CJ%20CONNECT%20(003).jpg?width=1697&height=540&name=CJ%20ACADEMY%20FOR%20CUSTOMERS%20EMAIL%20SIGNATURE%20CJ%20CONNECT%20(003).jpg)](https://www.coldjetconnect.com/)   [Cold Jet Academy](https://blog.coldjet.com/cold-jet-academy/tag/cold-jet-academy) ## Featured posts [![Cold Jet](https://blog.coldjet.com/hubfs/Cold_Jet_August2019%20Theme/Images/coldjet-white-no-tagline.svg)](https://www.coldjet.com) Global Headquarters 6283 Tri Ridge Blvd. Loveland, OH 45140, USA - - - - - -   © 2026 Cold Jet | [Legal](https://www.coldjet.com/legal/) | [Privacy Policy](https://www.coldjet.com/privacy-policy/) | [Pay Online](https://www.payerexpress.com/ebp/ColdJet/Login/Index)  [![USA](https://blog.coldjet.com/hubfs/Cold_Jet_August2019%20Theme/Images/usa%20(1).png)English](https://www.coldjet.com/country-selector/)
