How to Choose A Nozzle in Three Steps

Find your size from the chart above, or read the number on the tip you're replacing.
Pick the spray pattern for the job: start wide (40° or 25°) and narrow only if you need more force.
Match the connection to your want: quick connect plug, 1/4" threaded, or Karcher 18 mm thread for Dirtblasters and Triple Jets.

FAQS

What do pressure washer nozzles do?

They set the angle and force of the spray. A narrower angle hits harder over a smaller area; a wider angle covers more surface with less force.

Which nozzle should I use for general cleaning?

The green 25° nozzle. It balances power and coverage for decks, siding, driveways and equipment.

Can the wrong nozzle damage surfaces?

Yes. A 0° or 15° tip can etch concrete, strip paint or splinter wood. Start with a wider spray and move closer or narrower only if needed.

Can I use the same nozzle for soap and rinsing?

Not with standard tips. Detergent injectors only draw chemical through a low-pressure soap nozzle. A Triple Jet is the exception: it has a built-in soap setting.

Do nozzles wear out?

Yes. As the orifice wears, pressure drops and the spray pattern turns ragged. If your machine feels weaker, replace the tip before suspecting the pump.
