High-Pressure Nozzle
High-pressure nozzles are special accessories attached to pressure washers to spray water at high speed and pressure. They are essential for effective cleaning of surfaces such as terraces, facades, vehicles, and industrial machinery. By varying the jet, high-pressure nozzles can be adapted to different cleaning tasks.
Types of High-Pressure Nozzles
There are different types of high-pressure nozzles, which can be selected depending on the intended use and desired cleaning result:
-
Flat jet nozzles: These nozzles create a wide, flat water jet ideal for cleaning large areas.
-
Point jet nozzles: These concentrate the water jet on a small area to remove stubborn dirt and deposits.
-
Rotary nozzles: These combine a point jet with a rotating motion to maximize cleaning performance and remove widespread dirt.
-
Foam nozzles: These mix water with cleaning agents and generate dense foam, especially suitable for vehicle cleaning.
-
Adjustable nozzles: These allow individual adjustment of the jet angle and intensity.
What to Consider When Buying a High-Pressure Nozzle
When buying a high-pressure nozzle, consider several factors:
-
Compatibility: Make sure the nozzle is compatible with your pressure washer.
-
Material: High-quality materials like stainless steel or brass ensure durability and corrosion resistance.
-
Pressure and flow rate: Choose a nozzle suitable for the maximum pressure and flow rate of your pressure washer.
-
Application: Consider which cleaning tasks you want to perform and select the corresponding nozzle.
Advantages of High-Pressure Nozzles
High-pressure nozzles offer numerous benefits for cleaning:
