IMO the best wand currently in production for large volume sales(100's sold) is the Prochem Titanium wand. It is a 2" tubed wand with 6 jets to it. At 8 lbs, it is one of the lightest high performance wands around as well. It is hard to push without a glide however. Fortunatly we do offer it for sale in the USA with a Glide for only $899. In Canada we will sell it for $1199 Cdn while the sale is on.

SGK:  Is that the standard 2" 4 jet wand that Pro Chem uses. I used a 1.5" wand for awhile on the tm but I personally thought I left things wetter.  I went to 1.5" because years ago the Pro Chem 2" wand weighted about 2 lbs. short of a ton.   After a few hours you were dragging your a**.  But now I would not trade my 2" four jet, except maybe for a ti wand they just seem balance to me.  But who am I????Guitar

Steamway straight wand

12" wide I believe

1 1/2" tube

1 flood jet.

 

tried some 2" tubed wands and couldn't tell any difference in dry times,I really don't care for multi jetted wands......1 or 2 is good enough for me

Doug: The 4 jet steel wand Prochem uses as the standard with their TMs is a good wand, but not quite as good a wand as the 6 jet Titanium wand is. The only wand that can beat it IMO is my Titanium KH3 wand. But they are hand made one at a time and definatly not a large production wand.

All I want for christmas is my two front teeth. Mr. Steamer:  The last thing I would want Santa to bring is a new wand of any kind.  Maybe a Breeze???Guitar
