The Industry Standard for Surface Cleaners & Softwash J-Rods

The BE Power Equipment 25° MEG Nozzle is the universal standard for flat surface cleaners and general flushing. Unlike soft brass fittings that erode quickly, these are machined from Hardened 400-Series Stainless Steel.

The 25° angle creates a wide, consistent "sheet" of water. It is the exact OEM replacement part for Whirl-A-Way, General Pump Hammerhead, and Whisper Wash surface cleaners. It balances impact with coverage, allowing you to clean large areas of concrete without leaving "striping" marks.

✅ Why Hardened Stainless Steel?

Surface cleaners run at high RPM, and J-Rods live in bleach! Standard stainless tips eventually "wash out" under this stress. Hardened Stainless Steel is engineered to withstand the dual threat of high-pressure erosion and chemical corrosion from softwash mixes (SH). This ensures your fan pattern remains tight and consistent long after standard nozzles have failed.

⚠️ Precision Sizing Required

Selecting the wrong orifice size is the #1 cause of decreased performance.

Too Small: Your unloader valve will bypass water to limit pressure. This reduces the flow rate at the tip, killing your cleaning efficiency.
Too Big: System pressure drops drastically, significantly reducing your impact force and cleaning power.

Spray Angle Color Guide

Note: MEG nozzles are unpainted stainless steel. The list below references the matching Quick Connect industry standard colors.

🔴 0° (Red): Cutting / Hydro-Excavation / J-Rod High Reach.
🟡 15° (Yellow): Chiseling / Paint Stripping.
🟢 25° (Green): Flushing / Surface Cleaners / J-Rod Close Application.
⚪ 40° (White): Washing / Windows / Siding.

Professional 25° Use Cases:

Surface Cleaners (Whirl-A-Way): The 25° spray pattern is the industry standard for 90% of surface cleaners. It provides the optimal overlap for streak-free concrete cleaning.
General Washing: Ideal for rinsing soap off siding, cleaning decks, or washing vehicles. The fan is wide enough to be safe on most hard surfaces but concentrated enough to move debris.
Fleet Washing: The standard tip for pressure washer wands when cleaning trucks and heavy equipment, balancing coverage with impact.

💧 Softwash & J-Rod Sizing Guide

This product line is compatible with the RINSE slots of standard Softwash J-Rods.

Your Machine	Standard Rinse Tip (High Pressure)	Standard Soap Tip (Low Pressure)
2 - 3 GPM	Size # 10.0	Size # 30.0
3.5 - 4.5 GPM	Size # 10.0	Size # 40.0
5 - 6.5 GPM	Size # 15.0	Size # 40.0
7 - 8.5 GPM	Size # 20.0	Size # 60.0

Note: Installing a #30 - #60 nozzle on a standard machine will drop pressure drastically, automatically engaging your downstream chemical injector.

🔧 Installation Note: NPT threads are tapered. They require force to seal. Always use thread tape to prevent "galling" (friction welding) and to ensure a leak-proof seal.
