COMBO-JET® Spray Tips
COMBO-JET® spray tips use a patented ‘all-in-one’ design, so the cap, tip, O-ring and strainer all snap into one piece.
COMBO-JET spray tips for broadcast spraying are available in 80° and 110° angles. If you are looking for the narrow-angle COMBO-JET for banding and spot spraying (available in 20°, 40°, and 60° angles), click HERE.
The design makes it safer and easier to handle, and Combo-Jet® strainers also are 40% longer than other brands, so they plug less.
Every series of spray tip is compatible with all PWM systems, and the drift reduction for each series does not rely on air induction or air eduction to work perfectly.
All of the below include spray tip information for both Standard and Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) Sprayer applications:
| Component | Material |
|---|---|
| Spray Tip | Stainless Steel |
| Cap | Glass-reinforced Polypropylene |
| O-ring | Buna-N (Standard). Viton® available. |
| Strainer | Glass-reinforced Polypropylene & Stainless |
The 5 series of COMBO-JET® Spray Tips
What do we mean by Series?
Within each flow rate/color, we make several series of tips that differ only in the quality of spray (and drift reduction) that comes with it.
The Combo-Jet spray tip family can be visualized as a sliding scale of droplet size. As the series increase, the spray coming out of them gets (relatively) coarser.
Also, it is worthwhile to mention that each series of drift reduction act as a secondary stage to reduce drift to levels that are tolerable for any application.
ER Series
- The ER series is made up of a conventional flat fan tip, producing fine coverage and small droplets.
- ER spray tips do not reduce drift, and are typically used as a baseline for comparing drift reduction in other tips.
- Ideal for applications which require fine coverage, and are not very drift sensitive. (i.e. Fungicides)
SR Series
- The SR series Wilger’s 1st stage drift reduction series, producing excellent coverage, with significant drift reduction.
- The SR series tip-caps reduce ~50% of driftable fines, compared with the same application with an ER series tip/cap.
- Ideal for applications which require fine coverage, but require significant drift reduction. (i.e. Contact Herbicides/Fungicides)
MR Series
- The MR series Wilger’s 2nd stage drift reduction series, producing great coverage, with very significant drift reduction.
- The MR series tip-caps reduce ~75% of driftable fines, compared with the same application with an ER series tip/cap.
- Ideal for applications which require good coverage, but require high levels of drift reduction. (i.e. Systemic Herbicides)
DR Series
- The DR series Wilger’s 3rd stage drift reduction series, producing good coverage, with exceptional drift reduction.
- The DR series tip-caps reduce ~90% of driftable fines, compared with the same application with an ER series tip/cap.
- Ideal for applications which value drift reduction over coverage. Typically coverage is maintained by using higher application volumes. (i.e. Ground-Applied & Systemic Herbicides)
UR Series
- The UR series is Wilger’s newest 4th stage drift reduction series, emphasizing coarse spray for ultimately low drift.
- The UR series was developed for applications that have very low tolerance for spray particle drift, minimizing off-target spray movement.
- Ideal for applications which value drift reduction over coverage. Typically coverage is maintained by using higher application volumes. (i.e. Ground-Applied & Systemic Herbicides)
Comparison of the ER/SR/MR/DR series of Combo-Jet® Spray Tips
Find the below reference chart, showing the four of the different series of -06 tip size, and how they relate to each other. As the UR series is more a specialty spray tip, it isn’t listed with the traditional information.
The same typical relationship is shared among all the different tip sizes that Wilger manufactures.
Combo-Jet® Tip + Cap Design
All-in-one Tip, Cap & Strainer
The spray tip, cap, o-ring and strainer all snap into a single piece, making them easier and safer to handle.
Since the tip-cap components snap together, there isn’t a chance for dislodged debris to enter the tip during cleaning or changing.
Snap-in Strainers [Optional]
Combo-Jet® strainers are 40% longer than other brands, so they are easier to handle and less likely to plug.
Coupled with the ability to snap in to the tip-caps, it is above traditional loose strainers.
The Sliding Scale of Droplet Size
Since there are four series of Combo-Jet® tip-caps, there is effectively a sliding scale of droplet size that you can choose from to match your required application perfectly.
Tailoring a proper spray plan with a personalized mix of coverage and drift reduction is much easier with the four series of tips.
Serious Drift Reduction
With a closed chamber pre-orifice design, Combo-Jet® tip-caps provide the same levels of drift reduction without having any need for air induction (AI).
A few perks when compared to AI tips:
-
No Air Ports to Plug
-
Lower Allowable Operating Pressures
-
Fully compatible with all Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) Spray Systems
-
Fully compatible with air-assist boom sprayers
Tip Wizard Spray Tip Calculator
Tip Wizard isn’t your average spray tip calculator. It doesn’t just spew out dozens of spray tips with very little information.
Tip Wizard takes your spray application and provides crucial and actionable information that will help you make informed spraying decisions, as well as make tip selections that better suited to how you need to spray.
If you are not familiar with Tip Wizard, it is a spray tip calculator for agricultural and turf spray applications. Simply enter your application criteria, and it will provide meaningful results that will help you pick the best spray tip for your application.
Apart from the Wilger.net website, Tip Wizard is also available on free smartphone app, downloadable on your respective phone’s app store:
Android [GooglePlay App Store]
