The E-X full cone nozzle, with its typical elongated spiral design, works on the impact principle, by deflection of a water stream onto their spiral profile that provides the desired spray angle. Their specific shape with no internal parts leaves a larger internal free passage suitable to work with higher capacities and for higher clog resistance than other ozzles of the same size.
The capacity values on darker background can be obtained with metal nozzles only as plastic nozzles cannot ensure resistance in harsh operating conditions. If the capacity values you are looking for are those on darker background, we recommend to chose metal nozzles for their longer operating life.
