I can't stand hose nozzles that have uneven spray patterns, leak at the adjustment screw, and deteriorate over time when dropped. So I went overboard in creating the finest nozzle available. It sprays a perfect pattern from a conical shape, to a straight stream, to a wide diameter light spray! Soft rubber protects the end from accidental hits on the car's surface to brutal drops on the pavement. The solid anodized aluminum body houses a stainless steel spray control shaft. Weighs a full pound! The rotating spray control bezel feels like it's on ball bearings. Let one of your neighbors borrow it? I don't think so. It's that nice. Designed for normal household pressure (about 6-14 gallons per minute flow.) Made in America.
