HOW DO YOU KNOW WHAT SIZE NOZZLES TO GET I HAVE A LITTLE RYOBI 1800

[@hotwater8473]

@@TRR43 you want the 2.5 orifice to get you to 1050psi and the most gpm for that pressure washer. If you go bigger you’ll be under 1000psi. You want 1000-2000psi for detailing cars.

[@lawrenceeason8007]

I just got a Westinghouse 4400psi and 4.2gpm pressure washer. What nozzle would you recommend for my PW?

[@DuckysDetail]

@@TRR43I use the Ryobi 1800 for mobile detailing and found the 2.5 orfice to deliver 1050 psi and approx 1.43 GPM's anything around 1000 psi and 1.45 is great for car washing in my opinion.

I picked up the Ridge Washer ones back in August and think they are excellent bargain, no regrets!

[@georgebeato5702]

I purchased the Ridgewasher lineup. The green one rusted on me within a month. To the point it interfered with the spray pattern. Threw it out and went back to my SunJoe tops.

[@pantac4493]

You could change out the nozzle. It’s threaded on

[@georgebeato5702]

@pantac4493 I tried to actually remove the nozzle to see if I could clean it. But couldn't find a way to do it. But why would I want to remove the nozzle? Replace it with? I just went back to the SunJoe tips which actually work pretty well.

[@pantac4493]

@@georgebeato5702 they used loctite thread sealant instead of teflon tape so it’s way harder to remove. You can buy 3rd party nozzle tips to replace the ones they came with. Just make sure it’s 1/4” npt thread and the right angle and orifice size

[@WorldwideBeagle]

So much of the consumer ebay and Amazon grade pressure washer parts from China use 430 stainless, which rust. Or plated steel. Why do you think they are so cheap?

[@Sesshomaru474]

You get what you paid for. The reason it's cheap is because it's cheaper to make, aka poorly made, in China. So they still make profit before counting the fact like how they want you to buy nozzles and change them every time, apparently monthly. Just buy a well known brand not in Amazon, since China also make cheap crappy copies. And you take care of them, lasts you your whole life, might even go down through generations.

The Ridge should be the winner on price alone. Slightly less water throughput than the McKillans and the rubber sleeve firmness was in between the McKillans and MTM. Plus the 4.0 Ridge set is currently an additional 15% off.

[@Michael-t3b5b]

If you like the McKillins better you could always use a paint pen or something similar to put a colored ring around the black guard with the normal color for the angle of the nozzle

[@wlanceg]

I was wondering if you were going to ever test the PSI for each. That would have allowed you to tell the difference in orifice size as well.

[@vinumcoupe5555]

Josh, I’d suggest that with the McKillans being so flexible that the fanning of the water will be less consistent. Especially after consistent use.

[@imjoshv]

Thats an interesting thought! The spray doesnt actually git the nozzle guard but i guess over time that nozzle could flex and start getting in the way

[@whitenectar6856]

Hey Josh, I'm from the Philippines and just received my nozzles identical to the ridge washer today and you uploading this video was very fun to see. I ordered mine from Shopee (basically south east asia's Amazon) with the seller shipping straight from China. It wasn't even branded Ridge Washer where I bought it from but my nozzles are 100% identical to yours, including the branding on the rubber end which I was very surprised to see. Those nozzles have been on sale for around a year for us. Anyways I'm really glad to see your review on them, and I agree they're amazing value for what they are. I only bought the green and white nozzles for $3 each, with free shipping.

What size nozzle and degree should I use with the Ryobi electric pressure washer? Thx

[@AllRightsReservd]

I have the Ryobi 1800 1.2 gpm unit. 2.5 orifice yield 1000 psi and 3.0 orifice yield about 900 psi. When I use the 0 degree nozzle to get a long stream for washing at a distance I use the 3.0 to intentionally lower the pressure. I use 2.5 for all other spray angles. Josh did a video on this washer and provided links to these spray tips. Go find that video its a good one.

I must confess, there have been instances where my nozzle (without a guard) ejected from the gun because I didn't secure it tightly enough. Fortunately, I didn't observe any damage to the paint job, but now we have a secure alternative.

Yeah it can happen for sure. These will help with any potential damage… it could still damage I suppose but it would be less with these!

[@KingTheDetailer]

The problem I have with the ridge tips is that on my ryobi pressure washer it seems to make it work harder , I hear it forced and not smooth like it does with the ryobi tips. Great video brother

[@imjoshv]

Hi the Ryobi tips are usually around a 1.8 - 2.0 orifice. When you go to a larger orifice it will definitely change the sound of the machine but its actually not working harder. If you do an amp test you can see that when increase the size of the orifice it will decrease the amps meaning the machine isnt working as hard. However, if you prefer how the Ryobi tips work, keep tp that cause i havent been able to find an aftermarket nozzle that is as small as those! They work perfect on those ryobi units to get the higher psi numbers!

First love your videos. I have a Westinghouse Model # ePX3500, 2500 PSI 1.76 GPM Electric Powered Pressure Washer (my first pressure washer) with a Westinghouse Pressure Washer Foam Cannon, Model # PWFC, 3600 PSI, 1/4 in.

Doug checkout Chem X Stars and Stripes system. I really like it for touchless washing. In my area 4:1 dilution in the foam cannon doesn’t get it 99% clean I usually go 3:1 dilution.

[@OldDetailer]

You should have compared all the Ridge Nozzles in the set. I have a set of Ridge Nozzles and one nozzle seems to have a pressure reading that is inconsistent with the rest of the set. So, I’m concluding there might be some quality control issues with orifice size.

[@imjoshv]

Ill do some tests and let you know if mine have any change. But if there is inconsistency, mine could be perfect but another set could be slightly off

[@OldDetailer]

Hmmm hard to tell sometimes just the pivot point for the trigger can make a noise. They are pretty easy to open up and check out just to make sure nothing is rolling around inside. Then try it out to make sure if not having any issues. If you bought it on amazon it’s easy to return!!

HELP! Thx for your videos, but this one was very interesting. So I ordered the RIDGE WASHER 4.0 nozzles with the gauge of the same brand. I also ordered the Active short gun (thx for that video) with Yamatic 3/8"x50’ hose. I have an old Simoniz 1900 psi pressure washer (bought in 2002?), so I’m not sure about the specs. I tested with a bucket and it takes 40 seconds to fill one gallon with just the gun, no pressure nozzle, which gives me 1.5 gpm, if I plug the 4.0 nozzle I have 1 gpm. When I use the pressure gauge with the nozzle 4.0 attached, it shows around 525 psi, is that enough for washing a car? Should I go with a 3.0 orifice ? which I believe will give me around 1000 psi if we consider 1.5 gpm. Or should I go with the 2.5 orifice? Any advice?

great comparison. need to add OG tip as well as Carbon Collectives tips, best in the game in my opinion.

Josh, I bought a new sprayer gun and my regular 40 nozzle doesn't seem to fit the gun. However, the 25, 15, 0 from the same set fits it (meaning it clicks into the quick connect). Is there something I'm missing here? Because my pressure washers factory gun lance setup fits them all perfectly fine. 🤯

Sometimes when they are new the tolerances are really tight. Try breaking in your new gun connection. and then retry the white tip. Please checkout my tip holder invention. 🇺🇸 Veteran owned Mad car car tip holder on google

@injoshv looking at it on Amazon which set do I want I thought it was four different sizes

[@imjoshv]

As far as orifice size? It depends but if your using an electric ryobi or craftsman or something like that youll probably want the 2.5 or 3.0 for washing cars.

[@joemusic2882]

Question: Are there any electric pressure washers that DO NOT have the onboard soap container?? I used a foam cannon so have no use for the onboard nonsense.

Active 2.0 or Kranzle

I’ve been using the mckillians for over a year now with no issues. I am Interested in how long the cheaper Amazon option holds up.

another comment said there's rusted after a month

[@MikeGDetailing]

Thanks for the video. Will the mickillans come in either orifice sizes?

[@imjoshv]

Not that i know of… I hope they will in the future

[@N2theshine]

The ridge washer tips are hard plastic. MTM is soft rubber. Big difference!

[@patrickvorndran2471]

Do you know what orifice size I would need for my ryobi 1800 pressure washer

[@imjoshv]

I’d go with a 2.5 or 3.0 for cleaning cars
