What does the orifice size have to do with these Turbo nozzles? I'm looking for the most powerful Turbo nozzle to use on cleaning a aluminum 60 ft hull from barnacles and grime dirt etc
Depending on the pressure and flow rate of your machine would dictate what orifice size you need. If you fit too big you will get max flow rate but sacrifice pressure, too small can cause excess pressure buildup and reduced flow. You have to match it to the machine spec. I have heard though that you need some pretty serious pressure for removing barnacles from boat hulls. Ultimately its your machine that will govern how powerful the nozzle is.
Great review, thanks for the info. Any idea what could cause my simpson turbo nozzle to stop spinning? Its very odd, work everytime I power up for approx 5 seconds then stops with a random focused jet in one area. Each time I squeeze trigger after it will stay in same place and maybe move randomly but does not spin as it should. Took apart and all is clean. Less than 2 hours use. When I want to restart it, I have to remove tip, depress the wand and reinstall. Again it will last only 5 seconds or so. Thoughts?? Thanks.
Stephen Ricketts hey Stephen, can't say I've ever heard of Simpson nozzles. If it works in a similar way to the black suttner then the most common problem is the rotating nozzle jet getting stuck due to grit ingress. Problem comes by not using filters on the Lance and the smallest bit of grit gets in the chamber and scratches up all the inside and roughs up the plastic/composite nozzle making them lock up. If your lucky you may be able to strip it and smooth it with some metal polish or fine sandpaper but I had to replace my complete nozzle. Like you I had about an hour's use on it before it locked. These turbos are highly susceptible to grit, you can get quite a bit from the water source hose/tank. Phill
My entire nozzle is either brass or ceramic. No plastic, seems odd that it works for 5 seconds or so before the rotating action stops.... Thanks for the reply. Both the brass and ceramic are smooth as a baby's bottom and no groves.
Stephen Ricketts only other possibility is a faulty nozzle. I would always run filters on turbos just to be safe. You can always see the scratches that are made, my composite bit had the edges scuffed up and unless you really studied it you wouldn't see it.
What kind of filter it is? Could someone post a link to buy this? Because i do a lot of cleaing and it happens that ceramic get destroed probably due to some dirt. I would like to try that filter, but i can't find that.
Yes if these aren't filtered even the tiniest bit of grit can destroy the ceramic tips/seats or cause them to stop spinning. Try this rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F271290898135 Phill
what kind of pressure do you need to run both the set ups you have there?...and flow rates?...what i'd like to know is would they be worth investing in for say a kranzle k7?..cheers rich.
the nozzles run best on 4GPM and with atleast 3000+ PSI. But regardless of PSI from washer it will increase pressure and help. they effectively create a "scrubbing" motion
What's the life span of a turbo lance iv one on my tractor driven power washer 7 years but only use it week or two a year power isn't great in the powerwasher any more time to change the nossel??
Hi. My turbo nozzle has stopped spinning. Have taken it apart and can see a gauge in the plastic 'turbo' wheel that I think is the problem. do you know of somewhere I can purchase this wheel ? I have tried various power wash online places to no avail. Thank you,
@@jeffrose911 I would say no then, I know suttner sells the ceramic inserts but usually there is only about £10 difference between internal parts and a complete new nozzle.
Hi, either the PA or suttner would work. I personally find the PA a more reliable nozzle. So long as you run an inline filter they should both work well. I've tried the suttners but I never had great luck with the reliability. I've had a PA for 10years and it still works like new. Just make sure you buy the correct sized jet for your machine. You would need a size 050.

Hi sir, i am using black type of turbo nozzle ,350 bar ,if the nozzle not rotating water. what should i do ,i did clean but same issue, but after changing new internal nozzle of plastic its working, what should i do in the case of not rotating water. also from where to purchase these things.
Ayaz Ahmad The rotating plastic nozzle inside will wear out. even quicker if grit or sand can enter the chamber. You can kill a suttner turbo nozzle in a couple of hours use if the water is not filtered. For parts or replacement best bet is eBay.
Ayaz Ahmad I honestly don't know. I only ever use suttner or PA nozzles. do you know what make your nozzle is? there are a lot of Chinese copies on eBay and getting spares may be hard.
Hello does either one of these brands have a nozzle to work on a Karcher K7 180 bar? i have the adapter already just worried The machine i have is not powerful enough... it's just for home use as im tired of keep buying replacement Karcher dirt blaster lance thanks.
I mean technically yes. The flow rate on the karcher k7 is around 9-10 litres a min. The charts don't list what size you would need but I would say something around a size 035 may work OK. You would be better suited to trying one of the cheaper brands available on ebay. Both these versions are over £40 each now. Gone are the days when they used to be available for £27.
@@jinuthomas5093 that'd pretty low power for one of these. They don't do one for that low spec, you could try a size 040 but you won't get full pressure from it.
slim439 no chance, my water is filtered before it gets to the tank. unless you run stainless lances like I do now it can pick up small bits of rust from inside the lance and connections. I prefer to be safe, I've had these nozzles go wrong in the middle of a job without filters and it's a nightmare. running no filter is ok on large nozzle sizes but I have a twin nozzle lance that runs 2x 035 turbo nozzles and they block too easily if not filtered.
@@artinconstruction9070 everything imported is a joke cost wise. PA are Italian and suttner are from Germany. I can still get a new PA nozzle here for around £40 still more than it was a few years ago.

Helpful information. I have the blue PA 07 size one,. Is my Honda gx200 14l /min good enough for it.
Hi, it depends on the pressure rating.
I would say that unless its really low pressure then an 07 will be way too big a nozzle size.
@@DirtyDriveAway it says on hawk pump 150 bar 14l min at1450 rpm.
@@mack1609 07 is way to big youll never get full pressure with that. You'll need an 05 size nozzle.

Ditch the inline filters, & instead filter the water before it gets to the tank.
slim439 no chance, my water is filtered before it gets to the tank. unless you run stainless lances like I do now it can pick up small bits of rust from inside the lance and connections.

Aonde encontro esse filtro?
@evoluirsempre8164 I got mine from eBay. Try typing in turbo nozzle filter into Ebay. Alternatively, the Suttner ST33 is an excellent filter.
The chinese copies work well. i wouldnt say they will last forever but they work just as good.
A spinning nozzle is not a turbine nor is it boosted.
