Choosing The Right Nozzles

When selecting pressure sprayer nozzles from MyToolShed.co.uk, consider these key factors:

• Compatibility – ensure the nozzle fits your pressure sprayer brand and model; many manufacturers produce proprietary fittings
• Spray pattern – adjustable nozzles offer versatility, whilst fixed cone or jet nozzles excel at specific tasks
• Application type – use fine mist nozzles for delicate plants, cone nozzles for weedkillers, and jet nozzles for cleaning or reaching height
• Material construction – brass nozzles provide durability and chemical resistance for professional use
• Nozzle sets – colour-coded sets prevent cross-contamination when using different chemicals
• Replacement parts – complete lance and trigger assemblies available for comprehensive sprayer servicing

Safety Information

Always match the nozzle type to the chemical being applied, following manufacturer guidelines. Use dedicated nozzles for herbicides to prevent accidental plant damage from cross-contamination. Wear appropriate PPE including gloves and eye protection when fitting or cleaning nozzles that have been exposed to chemicals. Regularly inspect nozzles for blockages, wear or damage that could affect spray pattern accuracy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are pressure sprayer nozzles interchangeable between brands?

Most nozzles are brand-specific due to different thread sizes and fitting designs. Always check compatibility with your pressure sprayer model. MyToolShed stocks nozzles for all major brands including Hozelock, Solo and Matabi to ensure proper fitment.

How often should I replace pressure sprayer nozzles?

Replace nozzles when you notice inconsistent spray patterns, reduced flow, or visible wear to the nozzle opening. Regular users applying abrasive or corrosive chemicals should inspect nozzles seasonally and replace as needed to maintain application accuracy.

Can I use the same nozzle for different chemicals?

Whilst possible, it's recommended to use separate, colour-coded nozzles for different chemical types, especially when switching between weedkillers and fertilisers or pesticides, to prevent cross-contamination and unintended plant damage.
