High pressure swivel joint
High-pressure bend: infinitely adjustable angle up to 120° allows for easy cleaning of hard-to-reach areas. Easy to mount on the spray lance of a high-pressure cleaner.

When cleaning machines, vehicles, floors, facades or roofs with high pressure, for example, you often come across areas that are difficult or impossible to reach with the jet. High pressure solves this problem. Thanks to the infinitely adjustable angle of up to 120°, you can easily reach hard-to-reach places and no area is left uncleaned. Easy to mount directly on the spray hose of the high-pressure cleaner or the telescopic lance.

Due to the special articulated mechanism, it increases flexibility in work, especially when cleaning at an angle or in narrow spaces. It works best for regular use on various surfaces, but requires the user to check compatibility with the Kärcher device and the choice of attachments in advance.
