Air Cannons from American Air Cannons produces state of the art, custom built air cannons that will shoot almost everything. These hand made pneumatic air cannons are custom built for you, for maximum fun and longevity.
American Air Cannons builds several different models of air cannons, including Potato Cannons, Golf Ball Cannons, T-Shirt Cannons, and Tennis Ball Cannons. We offer easy to follow air cannon plans, air cannon kits, and pre built air cannons and Potato Launchers as well.
Compressed Air Cannons Are The Best
Our air cannons use compressed air, so they are safer and more reliable than standard aerosol air cannons. The trigger or release is simple single piece assembly that will last for years without failing. Another choice is a fast open ball valve so no batteries are ever needed.
How Far Will An Air Cannon Shoot
I often have people ask, "How far will one of these air powered air cannons shoot?" The range varies depending on air pressure, projectile type and the size of your barrel. A smaller air cannon will shoot between 100 - 300 yards. The large extra powerful air cannons will shoot 300 yards to over a half mile depending on your projectile. All of our air cannons are custom designed to be simple, reliable and very easy to build. Each of our cannons have been tested for reliability and toughness.
How To Customize Your Air Cannon
The artist in your family will love being able to add their own custom paint job to your cannon, as they come unpainted. Simply download our easy to follow, step-by-step plans, glue the parts together and add a little compressed air through an air valve and you are ready to shoot. Simply wedge a potato or tennis ball down the barrel and fire away. Take your air cannon to the desert, open field or family picnic. Surprise your family and friends with endless hours of fun and excitement. The fun with these air cannons never ends.
What Makes These Air Cannon Fire
There are two main factors that affect the power and range of any air cannon. That is the volume of air stored for shooting and the way it is delivered. The volume of air it delivers is the main power behind any air cannon. For example, a long barrel with a large amount of compressed air works really well because you are giving the release air time and distance in the barrel to work. If you want to create a more powerful air cannon, use both size and volume. If you make the air chamber twice the size of the barrel and almost as long, you will get more power. For example, for shooting potatoes, you can have a 36" long 1.5" diameter barrel and a 16" 3" diameter air chamber. This combination only needs about 80 PSI of air to shoot a potato well over 300 yards, depending on wind and weather conditions.
Who Uses Air Cannons
Our air cannons have been used by Several Sports Teams, Off Road Motorcycle and Race Teams, The US Coast Guard, Hollywood Special Effects Companies, and several corporations for promotional events. Our air cannons have been used for emergency ice and swift water rescue in Hawaii and North America and Zip line implementation throughout the Untied States. Many Golf Course Designers have used our air cannons for testing their fairway designs and distances.
