Extreme Precision with a Solid 0° Stream
The Quick Connect 0002 (500) Red Pressure Washer Nozzle is a professional-grade spray tip designed for jobs where maximum pressure and pinpoint accuracy are essential. With a 0° solid stream spray pattern, a #2 orifice size, and a rugged quick connect design that fits most ¼-inch couplers, this nozzle concentrates cleaning power into a razor-sharp jet of water.
Rated for up to 5,000 PSI, the 0002 Red Nozzle is built to handle the demands of residential, commercial, and light industrial cleaning. When it comes to removing the toughest stains, stripping paint, blasting away rust, or cutting through hardened debris, no other spray pattern matches the raw intensity of a red 0° nozzle.
Quick Connect for Fast Changes
Pressure washing often requires switching between different nozzles depending on the task. The Quick Connect 0002 Red Nozzle makes this process fast and hassle-free with its quick disconnect plug:
-
Instant Swaps: Just pull back the quick coupler collar, snap the nozzle in, and release — no tools required.
-
Universal Fit: Designed to fit most ¼-inch quick connect systems used on consumer and professional washers.
-
Time-Saving Design: Perfect for contractors who need to switch spray angles quickly throughout the day.
This plug-and-play convenience makes it easier to match the spray pattern to the job, improving efficiency without slowing down your workflow.
Red 0° Spray Pattern – Maximum Impact
In the pressure washing industry, colors matter. The red nozzle universally represents a 0° spray pattern, which produces the most powerful stream available. Unlike fan spray tips, this nozzle directs all the water pressure into a single pinpoint jet.
Common uses include:
-
Stain Removal: Cutting through deep oil, grease, or tar stains on concrete.
-
Rust and Paint Stripping: Prepping steel, iron, and metal for refinishing.
-
Surface Preparation: Etching or cleaning concrete prior to sealing or coating.
-
Industrial Cleaning: Breaking up hardened grime, adhesives, and coatings.
-
Agricultural & Construction Equipment: Removing caked-on mud, sludge, or buildup.
Because of its intensity, the red nozzle should be used with caution, especially on softer materials such as siding, wood, or paint finishes.
Orifice Size #2
The 0002 nozzle designation refers to its #2 orifice size, engineered for systems with lower GPM (gallons per minute) flow rates but requiring maximum PSI. This size ensures:
-
Correct Pressure Balance: Maintains full pressure without overloading pumps.
-
Efficient Water Flow: Delivers a consistent stream matched to lower-volume washers.
-
Precision Cleaning: Concentrated flow is optimized for spot-cleaning applications.
For pressure washers in the 2.0 GPM flow range, the #2 orifice nozzle provides the ideal balance of pressure and performance.
Rated to 5,000 PSI
The Quick Connect 0002 Red Nozzle is built to withstand up to 5,000 PSI, making it compatible with a wide variety of professional and consumer machines.
-
Heavy-Duty Performance: Handles the pressure requirements of contractors and facility operators.
-
Versatile Use: Safe for both residential and commercial washers within its range.
-
Durable Reliability: Designed to deliver consistent results, job after job.
This high pressure rating ensures the nozzle can perform under even the most demanding conditions.
Rugged, Professional Construction
The 0002 Red Nozzle is manufactured with durability in mind:
-
Quality Materials: Resistant to corrosion, wear, and high-pressure erosion.
-
Protective Guard: Bright red guard makes nozzle identification easy and helps protect surfaces.
-
Precision Machining: Ensures consistent orifice sizing and spray accuracy.
-
Built to Last: Ideal for contractors, fleet operators, and homeowners who demand long-term reliability.
This nozzle isn’t just another accessory — it’s a professional tool designed for daily use in tough environments.

Why the Red Nozzle is Essential
While the red nozzle isn’t used as often as green or white tips, it’s an essential part of any complete pressure washer kit.
-
Specialized Power: Provides the highest cleaning impact available.
-
Targeted Performance: Reaches tough spots other spray angles can’t.
-
Surface Prep Capability: Perfect for removing coatings, rust, and adhesives.
-
Emergency Option: The nozzle to grab when nothing else works.
Without the red 0° nozzle, your cleaning arsenal is incomplete.
Comparison with Other Spray Angles
To see where the 0002 Red Nozzle fits, here’s how it compares to other color-coded tips:
-
Red (0°): Maximum intensity, solid stream, pinpoint accuracy.
-
Yellow (15°): Narrow fan spray, great for concrete and metal cleaning.
-
Green (25°): Medium fan spray, versatile general-purpose cleaning.
-
White (40°): Wide fan spray, safe for siding, vehicles, and delicate surfaces.
-
Black (Soap): Low-pressure nozzle for detergents and chemical application.
The red nozzle sits at the extreme end of this spectrum — highest pressure, smallest coverage.
Applications Across Industries
The Quick Connect 0002 Red Nozzle is trusted in multiple industries where maximum force and precision are required:
-
Construction: Cleaning concrete splatter, prepping surfaces, stripping coatings.
-
Transportation: Rust and grime removal from trucks, trailers, and heavy vehicles.
-
Agriculture: Cleaning tractors, harvesters, and farm equipment caked with mud.
-
Industrial Facilities: Removing adhesives, coatings, and hardened residues.
-
Municipal Maintenance: Stripping graffiti or chewing gum from sidewalks and walls.
For any task requiring raw cleaning power, this nozzle is the go-to choice.
Safety Considerations
Because of its intensity, the red 0° nozzle should always be used with care:
-
Risk of Damage: Can etch concrete, strip paint, or gouge wood if held too close.
-
Protective Gear: Always wear gloves, goggles, and protective clothing.
-
Operator Skill: Best used by experienced operators familiar with its power.
-
Keep Moving: Do not hold the jet in one place — keep the spray moving to avoid surface damage.
-
Safety First: Never point the nozzle at people, animals, or fragile objects.
With responsible use, the nozzle is a powerful, effective cleaning tool.
