⚠️ Critical Warnings
Avoid Aluminum-on-Aluminum Seizing
Do NOT use aluminum threaded nozzles with aluminum nozzle holders.
Threads may seize or become permanently stuck.
To prevent thread binding:
-
Use brass or stainless-threaded nozzles
-
Avoid overtightening
-
Apply thread lubricant when needed
Hose-End Cutting Requirement
Factory hose ends are NOT cut square. Always cut hose ends perfectly square before installing couplings or nozzle holders.
This is the #1 cause of coupling failure.
A clean, square hose cut ensures proper seating, maximum grip, and long-term safety.
