Akron: 1532ZT Zero Torque Saberjet Mid-Range Single Shutoff Nozzle, Pistol Grip, 1-1/2in

Ergonomically Designed for Superior Handling and Control, Less Fatigue. The new Zero Torque™ (ZT) nozzle is the first nozzle specifically designed to improve handling and control, and reduce firefighter fatigue. The ZT naturally keeps the nozzle out in front of the firefighter to allow for easier operation. The pistol grip and inlet swivel are positioned higher, effectively reducing the reaction force torque found in conventional pistol grip designs. Because conventional pistol grip nozzles are held at a position 3-1/2" to 4" below the center line of discharge, they create a natural torque which must be resisted by the firefighter. The ZT is positioned to eliminate the torque, leaving only the straight reaction force for the firefighter to resist, and applying more of it to the stronger muscles in the triceps, shoulder, and chest.

Superior Handling:
The ZT pistol grip and inlet swivel are positioned to eliminate the reaction torque found in all conventional designs providing reduced short-term fatigue and better overall handling.

Superior Control:
The ZT nozzles extended design naturally keeps the nozzle out in front of the fire fighter to allow for easier operation and provide better overall control, helping accomplish what fire fighters have been trained to do.

Superior Firefighting:
Designed by experts in industrial design and ergonomics, tested by experienced, professional fire fighters, and combined with proven Akron Brass nozzles – the ZT nozzle translates to better overall fire fighting.

"Backlash from spraying side to side as well as starting and stopping recoil was reduced significantly by directing the handle closer to the path of the discharge."

"..it is easy to see how the handgrip positioning eliminates torque and allows the user much greater control in aiming the flow."

The Saberjet SSO Multi-Purpose Nozzle—select stream or fog in an instant. The business end of this powerful ZT combination is a versatile nozzle suited for multiple applications. The patented SaberJet Mid-Range Nozzle employs the latest in firefighting nozzle technology. The new Single Shutoff SaberJet offers both the penetration of a solid bore tip and the advantages of a fog pattern. Its unique three position handle and ball gives you an instant choice of smooth bore, fog, or closed positions. The nozzle is capable of operating efficiently at pressures as low as 50 psi to reduce firefighter fatigue, or up to 100 psi for maximum flow.
