Product Overview
MEG nozzle for pressure washers.
MEG (Mechanical Engineer Grade) nozzles produce a more consistent spray pattern than standard quick-change tips. The spray fan stays even across the full width, which means more consistent cleaning and fewer streaks. MEG nozzles also last longer because the orifice geometry resists wear better.
Choosing the right nozzle means matching three things: spray angle (degree), orifice size (GPM at your PSI), and connection type (usually 1/4 inch quick connect). Get any one of those wrong and you lose cleaning power, damage surfaces, or waste water.
Key Features and Specifications
- Connection: 1/4 inch quick connect (standard)
- Type: MEG (Mechanical Engineer Grade), better spray consistency and longer life than standard tips
| Connection | 1/4 inch Quick Connect |
Compatibility
MEG nozzles fit any pressure washer wand or lance with a standard 1/4 inch quick connect socket. They are compatible with all major pressure washer brands.
Nozzle color codes and their spray angles:
- Red, 0 degrees, pencil jet for hard surface stain removal and paint stripping
- Yellow, 15 degrees, heavy cleaning on concrete, brick, and metal
- Green, 25 degrees, general purpose cleaning on siding, decks, and driveways
- White, 40 degrees, light cleaning, rinsing, and delicate surfaces like wood
- Black, 65 degrees, applying soap and chemicals at low pressure
Choose the orifice size based on your pump's GPM rating and your desired operating pressure. A larger orifice flows more water at lower pressure. A smaller orifice restricts flow and increases pressure. Nozzle sizing charts are available on our website or call us for help selecting the right size.
Applications and Use Cases
- House washing with white (40 degree) or green (25 degree) tips
- Concrete cleaning with yellow (15 degree) tips at high pressure
- Chemical application with black (65 degree) soap nozzles
- Detail work and stain removal with red (0 degree) pencil jets
- Surface cleaners with matched nozzle pairs for even coverage
Installation and Maintenance Tips
Snap the nozzle into the 1/4 inch quick connect socket on your wand. Pull back the collar, insert the nozzle, and release. The nozzle should click into place and hold firm.
Inspect nozzles regularly for wear. A worn orifice changes the spray pattern and reduces cleaning efficiency. If the spray fan is uneven, jagged, or narrower than it should be, the nozzle is worn out. Replace it.
If a nozzle gets clogged, remove it and clean the orifice with a nozzle cleaning needle or compressed air. Do not use a wire or drill bit that could damage the orifice geometry.
Carry a full set of nozzle sizes and angles on your rig. Different jobs require different nozzles. Having the right tip on hand saves you time and gets better results.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I pick the right orifice size for my pressure washer?
The orifice size determines how much water flows through the nozzle at a given pressure. Match the orifice to your pump's GPM rating. A chart cross-references PSI and GPM to give you the correct orifice number. If you are not sure, tell us your pump's PSI and GPM and we will recommend the right size.
What is the difference between MEG nozzles and standard tips?
MEG nozzles have a precision-machined orifice that produces a more consistent spray pattern than stamped standard tips. The spray fan stays even edge to edge. MEG nozzles also resist wear longer, so you replace them less often. The slightly higher cost pays for itself in better results and longer life.
How often should I replace my pressure washer nozzles?
It depends on hours of use and what you are washing. Sand and grit in the water wears nozzles faster. Most commercial washers replace nozzles every few months. Check your nozzles regularly. If the spray pattern is uneven or the cleaning power has dropped, it is time for a new set.

Before You Order: What to Check
Getting the right part the first time saves you a return trip and more downtime. Before you add this to your cart, check these things:
- Model number: Find the model and serial number on your equipment data plate. Write it down before you order.
- Port sizes and thread types: Measure your connections. A 3/8 inch fitting will not thread into a 1/4 inch port no matter how hard you try.
- Pressure and flow ratings: Make sure the replacement part is rated for your system's PSI and GPM. Under-rated parts fail fast.
- Old part comparison: If possible, remove the old part and compare it side by side with the product photos and specs listed here.
- Still not sure? Call us before you order. We would rather spend 5 minutes on the phone confirming fitment than process a return because the wrong part showed up.
