With the ham-fisted school kids we have working weekdays, these things last two, three weeks tops. They always break in the centre, leading to weird spray patterns, massive leakage and water all over the place. I personally just jam a biro tube into the hose, makes for a nice concentrated jet ideal for blasting the dog poop residue off of rough concrete!

We've used ours with 4" pumps, hydrant meters, etc. This is the one you want: http://www.northerntool.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_6970_326621_326621

I'm a firefighter and honestly...it's not that cool. We had someone give our station one and it lasted about 6 weeks. It's just not heavy duty enough. We wash trucks and fire boats everyday as well as our own personal trucks all the time. We came out much better with a heavy duty standard nozzle for a garden hose. These style nozzles are def something i would not recommend buying for more than $5. I can promise you that this thing is not UNBREAKABLE!!! I’m a firefighter and honestly…it’s not that cool.

It was by far the best nozzle I ever used. Then it broke. One day it just started leaking in the middle of using it. I guess it is unbreakable only if you don't use it. Mine leaks water between the black and yellow parts and is completely unusable. I own this and it worked great for about 4 months. It was by far the best nozzle I ever used. Then it broke.
