Dramm12342 400DC Nozzle, Metallic Aluminum, Twin

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Very gentle high volume spray that won't destroy your plants. I can spray emerging pumpkin seeds and it is such a soft stream that the plants remain rooted and without any damage. It is not a low volume of water so suggest you have a control valve at the end of the watering wand so you don't flood too much water and can better control flow volume. Even at low flow all the little holes distribute water. It is not cheap plastic. It should last a lifetime really.

I bought this to use on a regular hose bib to wash my hands and other things. It seems to be better made than others I have had on watering wands. Works perfect for my intended use.

This is a perfect breaker. It lets lots of water thru but it doesn't come out too hard, so it's good for seedlings and smaller planes, along with big plants. Highly recommend.

I ordered this nozzle to replace a Dramm aluminum water nozzle I've used with our lake pump for fifty years, and I'm happy to report that this one is just as heavy duty and well made as the previous one. It's pricey, but worth the extra money. With the pressure from the lake pump any nozzle with ultra fine spray will cause the pump to shut off, so I was thrilled to find this product still available. The soft rain-like flow is easy on the flowers and placed on my original long extension wand gives an extra 24" reach. It would be nice if the end could be unscrewed to clean the holes, but since that's not possible, a filter can be placed over the washer for easy removal and cleaning. I highly recommend this quality nozzle.

Whether it's time to replace the end of you watering wand or you just want to add a sprinkler tip to your hose, this one is well made, rust-proof and sturdy.

I bought this because it seemed like the best option to build a two function hose spray head that can survive outdoors in the desert where most plastic and/or rubber objects quickly deteriorate and break.I am happy with the purchase but I do wish that...1. The face was removable for cleaning (as this thing should last quite a long time, mineral deposits will eventually be a real problem) as it is now, when the head gets plugged up it is basically impossible to fix without buying another head.2. The body should be thicker or made from stainless steel and not aluminum, I would happily pay an upcharge for the better material.I only removed 1 star for the first issue and not the second, because quite frankly the head will be stronger than most people need, and it was the sturdiest one I could find.

I have gone through about a dozen wands, which last a few months and then fall apart. This, because it is just the head, is vastly superior and lasts longer. If you need with a wand, better to "build" your own with this as a component.

I needed a new spray end for my watering wand. The original was plastic body with a metal disk with many holes for water. The old wand was a piece of crap and died many years ago. I made a new wand of 3/4" rigid copper as shown in photo and used the old shower head. The plastic finally failed and I needed a replacement that would last. The aluminum head was just what I needed. This watering wand will still be going after I am long gone. The new metal disk has more smaller holes than the old head which produces a more gentle shower. Make your own wand if you are handy, otherwise pay a plumber. It is easy to fabricate. I was going to make my own replacement head, but the cost of this aluminum head was too attractive and there was no way I could come close to making a head as good as this Dramm model. Also, consider the quick disconnect fittings for both end of the wand. I have used the QD fittings for years and it beats screwing on the wand every time.
