Is this similar, and cheaper? Chemical Guys ACC2008 Industrial Grade Fire Hose Nozzle with Anodized Aluminum

To me, the best feature of the Bon-Aire nozzle is it's adjustability. I know of no other nozzle that you can adjust to a full-flow stream (as if there was no nozzle on the hose at all) which is perfect for filling buckets, watering cans, bird baths or rinsing off your vehicle with a nice gentle full-flow stream. This is the best hose nozzle I have ever used, and I am a senior citizen. I have two of these.

This is the original nozzle. I've had mine for about three years and it's always worked great and still does. Can't go wrong for the price either.

Yes, just don't over use it, more is not better. I only light skim the threads, and try to keep as much out of the inner channels of the threads as possible when using it for spark plugs. For other screws not near combustion, I apply it heavy but not dripping in goop in and out of the thread channel. The only difference between 80078 and 80071 looks to be the # of oz per container...*78 has 8oz, and *71 has 4oz.

The only thing I can think of&gt;&gt; you may need longer tubing/wiring depending on where you mount the unit. If you have to drill holes for the spray nozzles and the sprayer switch i recommend get a set of step drill bits, about $10 @ Harbor Freight or Northern tool. Good Luck!

For aluminum tanks I think you would do better with a lower power unit. This unit comes with a WP26 torch which is really too large for what you want. That said, the machine will do the job but might be a bit difficult to handle with the large torch and stiff hose for tight work like you will be doing. The torch can be replaced (WP17 should work) but I found the hose to be very stiff for detailed work. Just my $0.02 worth, YMMV

Yes, I bout the black 1 w/brass fittings, 1 of them lasted about 3 months then tore @ the coupling, the nozzle end & the other 1 is still working. I have been using all suggested precautions.

I've been meaning to update my review with that info. The A/C function works fine. I am able to get decent looking beads when I tig, but this isn't a Miller dynasty. You have very few function controls. The pedal also doesn't allow for fine amperage control (since it's not a true high frequency pedal). With all that being said, if you have the patience to experiment with the amperage that best suits the thickness of your material, you should be fine. Just remember one important thing: speed. You have to move quickly once that aluminum starts to go molten. I've had some good results with this welder on A/C, but you get what you pay for, and that means operating this cheap machine can be quirky. For what it's worth, I've found that ceriated tungsten works the best with this machine.

Found many listings for hose's on Amazons site. That said save yourself a problem and buy one made of metal not the plastic that these come with. I have had to replace 4 already over the last 3 years due to the connector breaking.

The tiny spray nozzles appear to be plastic or perhaps ceramic. Everything else is metal. They don't look cheap at all. The fact that the nozzles are not metal is a good thing because lime deposits don't build up on them like the would otherwise..

I don't know. Do not have any of the steel nozzles. I would think as long as the threading was the same it would. Maybe contact the company and ask them.

Yes it sounds like the same company. I had a prob w 1 of there prongs also. Company starts w a j I think. O ring is to small and will leak when installed. I installed it 5 diff time wondering wtf. Y is this think leaking. - wrong oring. But good motor. Get proper oring off eBay. Or any hydraulic shop. Shouldn't be more than $2.00

I could not find any stamp on the hose as to where it was made.. It does have a placard that says it is NSF/ANSI standard 61.Wish I could be more helpful, but I can say, I have had it in service several months now with no problems at all. The hose fittings on each end are very well made.Below is from their website.Camco started in 1966 with one employee and one product. Today, over 40 years later, we have more than 350 employees, over 3,000 products and five manufacturing facilities to better serve our customers needs. Our home office is in Greensboro, North Carolina. We also have locations in Elkhart, Indiana; Portland, Oregon; Leominster, Massachusetts and our newest facility in Beilun, China.

At least the Harbor Freight version is all metal (aluminum). The entire housing of this thing is plastic, for that price. But, hey, you could always buy the "master" version, also plastic, for even more. There's nothing to these things. They're just drill guides, and the Harbor Freight version (with the right drill bits, etc) can do that just fine.

This nozzle uses a standard fitting. I don't know whether the Simpson does or not. You should be able to look both up and see.

Nope. different hose adapter. look for the quick release type. Not the screw on.

Thank you SG; I mistakenly thought this was the copper core, not the aluminum. Everything else you stated is spot on though. Thanks for the help!

From seeing the product and installing a few, the anode rod it is not a actually an "electronic" process, but rather a reaction between the base metals of the metals in the rod itself and the composition of the water.Then again, i just know it extends the life of the water heater and worth the money.The other point is while it does not improve the looks of the water heater, mark the dates of replacement on the outside of the tank in sharpie, It indicates you are a knowledgeable homeowner and improves the impression of someone who cares about their property.I am not an expert, and i would welcome that opinion.KS From seeing the product and installing a few, the anode rod it is not a actually an "electronic" process, but rather a reaction between the base metals of the metals in the rod itself and the composition of the water.Then again, i just know it extends the life of the water heater and worth the money.The other point is while it does not improve the looks of the water heater, mark the dates of replacement on the outside of the tank in sharpie, It indicates you are a knowledgeable homeowner and improves the impression of someone who cares about their... » Read More From seeing the product and installing a few, the anode rod it is not a actually an "electronic" process, but rather a reaction between the base metals of the metals in the rod itself and the composition of the water.Then again, i just know it extends the life of the water heater and worth the money.The other point is while it does not improve the looks of the water heater, mark the dates of replacement on the outside of the tank in sharpie, It indicates you are a knowledgeable homeowner and improves the impression of someone who cares about their property.I am not an expert, and i would welcome that opinion.KS « Show Less

Unknown. The one I purchased was cracked at the nozzle and I returned it. It was going to be used at my wedding reception so I had to find another alternative.
