Tank-Washing Nozzles
To effectively rinse tanks, drums, and small vessels, these nozzles spray in multiple directions. The simplest style of tank-cleaning nozzle, they don't have any moving parts that will wear or need maintenance.
Brass and nylon nozzles have good corrosion resistance.
303 stainless steel nozzles are more chemical, corrosion, and abrasion resistant than brass nozzles.
316 stainless steel nozzles have excellent chemical and corrosion resistance.

Sanitary Tank-Washing Nozzles
Certified by 3-A to meet sanitary design standards, these nozzles have a 360° spray pattern to effectively rinse tanks and vessels in food, beverage, and pharmaceutical environments. Their one-piece design means there are no moving parts to maintain, making them good for clean-in-place (CIP) systems.
Made from 316 stainless steel, these nozzles will not corrode from frequent washdowns with harsh cleaners and sanitizers. All are self-draining with polished surfaces and a pin connection, which means they have no threads, to reduce the risk of bacteria growth.
These nozzles can be installed in any position. Slip them over your supply tube and secure them in place with the pin. Your supply tube must have a through-hole that matches the pin diameter.

Rotating Tank-Washing Nozzles
By circulating their spray, these nozzles clean faster with more even coverage and less water than stationary tank-washing nozzles. The force of the liquid flowing through is what causes them to rotate, so the higher the pressure, the faster they will rotate. They spray in multiple directions to effectively rinse down tanks, drums, and small vessels.
316 stainless steel and PVDF nozzles have good resistance to chemicals and corrosion. PTFE nozzles have excellent resistance to chemicals and corrosion.
FDA-compliant nozzles can be used in the food industry.

High-Impact Rotating Tank-Washing Nozzles
Internal gears create controlled motion as fluid moves through these nozzles, maintaining speed and producing large droplets to efficiently clean heavily soiled or large-diameter tanks. These nozzles rotate, so they produce more even coverage and clean faster than stationary tank nozzles while using less water. A multi-directional spray pattern makes these nozzles good for rinsing.

Foam-Spray Rotating Tank-Washing Nozzles
Use these nozzles with detergent that’s diluted in water to create a rotating, multi-directional foam spray for effectively rinsing tanks, drums, and small vessels. Because they rotate, these nozzles clean faster and produce more even coverage than stationary tank-cleaning spray nozzles, typically while using less liquid. The force of the liquid flowing through these nozzles makes them spin, so they’ll spin faster at higher pressures.
