Title: Nozzle angles / sizes ?
Post by: Ian101 on April 27, 2013, 04:13:49 pm

ok still a newbie at all this pressure washing stuff but getting there.

5 jobs lined up this week  ;D

Managed to sort new 20mtr hose this week with correct fittings ordered to fit my machine and attach to my current 10mtr hose.  :D

also managed to ID my pump WW965C Series 44 so defo 250bar / 15 lpm so got selection of spares together now  :D

Now need to order some spare nozzles which Im sure Im correct in saying for my pump should be 04 and 02 for for my FSC but what angles are best ?

I can see 0 15 25 and 40 degrees .......... im guessing 0 degree would be a smaller area cleaned but at a higher pressure or flow and a 40 would be a softer less harsh clean ???

Whats the usual to go for ?

0 is a pencil jet mate. 15 will be good for rinsing

I only use 15's. Got a few pencils for the long lance, and a couple of 40's just to see what they were like. The angle is way too big on a 40.

Got a few 25's too cause I ordered the wrong ones.

You shouldnt need to use a pencil jet, but if you do be carefull as they can do some damage close up.
