Full Description

The Stubby Pressure Washer Trigger Gun Kit is a compact, high-performance upgrade designed to replace bulky factory pressure washer guns with a shorter, more ergonomic setup built specifically for detailing and precision cleaning. Engineered for improved manoeuvrability and control, the stubby gun transforms the way pressure washers feel during use, especially when paired with foam cannons and detailing accessories.

Unlike long OEM trigger guns that can feel awkward and unbalanced during vehicle washing, the stubby design allows much greater control around mirrors, wheels, grills and lower panels. The shorter layout also reduces fatigue during extended cleaning sessions while making accessory changes significantly faster thanks to the integrated quick-release system.

Constructed for demanding use, the trigger gun features a durable internal structure with high working pressure capability, making it suitable for enthusiast and professional detailing setups alike.

Available with fittings suitable for Kärcher or Nilfisk pressure washers.
