Key Features of Karcher Pro Lances & Nozzles

High-Pressure Capability: Karcher Pro lances are engineered to handle pressures up to 200 bar and beyond, with reinforced construction and high-quality seals that prevent pressure loss and ensure consistent performance throughout their service life.

Variable Pressure Control: Vario power spray lances incorporate Karcher's servo technology, enabling operators to adjust spray pressure from concentrated jet to wide fan pattern without interrupting workflow, providing precise control for different surfaces and cleaning requirements.

Ergonomic Design: Extended lances feature rubberised grips and balanced weight distribution to minimise operator fatigue during prolonged use, whilst trigger mechanisms are designed for comfortable operation with gloved hands.

Quick-Connect Systems: Professional-grade bayonet fittings and quick-release couplings allow rapid accessory changes on site, with secure locking mechanisms that prevent accidental disconnection during high-pressure operation.

Specialist Attachments: The range includes rotary dirt blasters for intensive cleaning, foam nozzles with adjustable detergent mixing ratios, extension lances for high-level work, and angled nozzles for accessing confined spaces and undercarriage cleaning.

Durable Construction: Manufactured from hardened stainless steel, brass, and reinforced polymers, Karcher Pro lances and nozzles resist corrosion from chemicals and saltwater whilst maintaining dimensional accuracy under thermal expansion during hot water applications.

Popular Karcher Pro Lances & Nozzles

Heavy-Duty Spray Lances: The foundation of any professional pressure washing setup, these robust lances are available in various lengths from 500mm to 1000mm, offering different reach capabilities whilst maintaining optimal pressure delivery. Reinforced construction ensures reliability in demanding commercial environments.

Vario Power Spray Lances: These versatile accessories have become indispensable for professionals requiring instant pressure adjustment. The simple twist mechanism allows seamless transition between concentrated jet for stubborn deposits and wide fan spray for larger surface areas, eliminating the need to swap nozzles mid-task.

Rotary Dirt Blasters: Featuring high-speed rotating jets that deliver superior cleaning performance, dirt blasters are essential for removing ingrained dirt, concrete residue, and weathered coatings from hard surfaces. The concentrated rotating action reduces cleaning time significantly compared to standard flat nozzles.

Foam Nozzles: Professional foam lances at Tooled-Up create thick, clinging foam for vehicle cleaning, equipment degreasing, and pre-treatment applications. Adjustable mixing ratios ensure efficient detergent usage whilst maintaining consistent foam quality.

Extension Lances: Available in various lengths, extension lances enable operators to reach elevated areas such as building facades, vehicle roofs, and guttering without ladders, improving both efficiency and safety on site.

Safety and Compliance

Karcher Pro lances and nozzles are manufactured to comply with relevant British and European safety standards, including BS EN 12355 for pressure washer accessories. Proper use of appropriate lances and nozzles is essential for safe operation, as incorrect accessories can result in dangerous pressure levels or inadequate cleaning performance.

Operators should always wear appropriate personal protective equipment including safety goggles, waterproof clothing, and robust footwear when using high-pressure cleaning equipment. The HSE recommends maintaining a safe working distance from surfaces being cleaned, as high-pressure jets can cause surface material to become airborne projectiles.

Regular inspection of lances and nozzles is crucial for maintaining safe operation. Check for worn seals, damaged threads, and blocked nozzle orifices before each use. Replace any components showing signs of wear or damage immediately, as compromised accessories can fail under pressure, potentially causing injury.

When using extension lances for overhead work, be aware of overhead power lines and maintain safe distances from electrical installations. Never direct the pressure washer jet towards people, animals, or electrical equipment, and ensure proper training for all operators using Karcher Pro pressure washing accessories.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are Karcher Pro lances compatible with domestic Karcher pressure washers?

Whilst Karcher Pro accessories feature similar quick-connect fittings, they are specifically designed for commercial pressure washers with higher flow rates and pressures. Using Pro-series lances on domestic machines may not provide optimal performance, and conversely, domestic accessories should never be used on Pro machines as they cannot withstand the higher operating pressures and may fail dangerously.

What's the difference between a vario power lance and a standard spray lance with multiple nozzles?

A vario power lance incorporates servo-controlled pressure adjustment within the lance itself, allowing infinite variation between jet and fan spray patterns through a simple twist mechanism. Standard lances require you to stop work and manually change separate colour-coded nozzles to alter the spray pattern, making vario lances significantly more efficient for tasks requiring frequent pressure changes.

Can Karcher Pro foam nozzles be used with any detergent?

Karcher Pro foam nozzles should only be used with detergents specifically formulated for pressure washer use. Standard household cleaners may damage seals, create excessive foam that reduces cleaning effectiveness, or leave residues that block the nozzle. Always use Karcher-approved detergents or professional cleaning chemicals that specify pressure washer compatibility.

How often should I replace the nozzle inserts on my Karcher Pro lances?

Nozzle lifespan depends on usage intensity and the materials being cleaned. Inspect nozzles regularly for wear - signs include irregular spray patterns, reduced pressure, or visible erosion of the orifice. In heavy commercial use with abrasive materials, nozzles may require replacement every few months, whilst clean water applications can extend service life to a year or more. Keep spare nozzle inserts on hand to minimise downtime.

What length lance should I choose for professional cleaning work?

Lance length selection depends on your typical applications. For vehicle valeting and close-quarters work, 500-750mm lances offer excellent manoeuvrability and control. Building maintenance and larger surface cleaning benefits from 1000mm lances that provide reach whilst maintaining comfortable working posture. Many professionals stock multiple lengths or use extension lances to adapt to different tasks whilst maintaining a core setup.
