A washer that dribbles at the gun, leaks at a joint or sprays a fan that never changes shape usually needs a part, not a new machine. Electric pressure washer parts are the gun, wand, tips, seals and couplers that carry water from the hose to the surface, and each one has a fitting size and a pressure limit to match before you order. This guide walks through the parts that wear out, what each one handles, and how to match it to your machine.

Electric Pressure Washer Parts: The Pieces That Wear Out

The parts in this guide do most of the work on an electric washer. The gun starts and stops the spray, the wand sets the reach, the tips set the fan, the seals keep the joints dry and the coupler joins the garden hose to the washer inlet. When one of them fails, the washer still runs, but the wash gets weak, wet or wasteful.

The Axfvd gun is rated at 2000 PSI max with a working pressure of 1500 PSI. Match the fitting first: a gun with an M22-14mm fitting and an M22-15mm adapter fits a different hose end than a coupler made for a 3/4 inch garden hose. Then match the flow: the FIXFANS gun is rated at 3.2 GPM max flow, and tips from 0 to 65 degrees cover both stubborn grime and a gentle rinse.

What to Check Before You Order

Order by the numbers on your own machine and on the part listing, not by looks. When the fitting, pressure and flow agree and the brand list includes your washer, the part fits.

  • Fitting. Note the thread and the quick connect size: M22-14mm, M22-15mm, 1/4 inch, 3/8 inch or 3/4 inch. A gun that fits Ryobi, Karcher and PowerStroke washers may not fit a Portland, Husky or Ford washer, so read the brand list.
  • Pressure and flow. The FIXFANS gun is rated at 2000 PSI max and 3.2 GPM max flow, so it suits a washer inside those limits. A tip set in 0, 15, 25, 40 and 65 degrees gives a fan for each job; the pressure washer nozzle size chart explains which angle suits which surface.
  • Temperature. Guns in this guide work up to 140 degrees F, and the seal kit is rated from -40 degrees C to 120 degrees C.
  • Seal size. Measure the old ring: small rings are 14.0mm outside, 9.2mm inside and 2.4mm deep, and large rings are 17.1mm outside, 11.8mm inside and 2.65mm deep. The two sizes look alike, so a ruler saves a repeat order.

The guide to how to use an electric pressure washer walks through the wash itself, from hookup to rinse.

Electric Pressure Washer Parts for the Wash

Each part below handles one step of the wash: the gun and wands shape the spray, the tips set the fan, the seals stop leaks at the joints, and the coupler feeds water in from the garden hose.

Garage safety

Read the manual before first use, wear eye protection, keep the work area clear and ventilated, and stay within every stated rating. Read our Safety Disclaimer.

Spray Safety Basics

Wear eye protection whenever the washer runs, and never aim the spray at people. A gun with a trigger lock stays shut until you mean to spray, so use the lock when you set the gun down or swap a tip. Check the washer manual for the pressure and flow limits of your machine.

FAQ: garage tools

What electric pressure washer parts wear out first?

The seals and the gun see the most use, so they usually show wear first: a worn ring drips at a joint, and a gun that no longer shuts off cleanly wastes water and pressure.

How do I know which gun fits my washer?

Match the fitting and the brand list. The Axfvd gun lists Ryobi, Karcher and PowerStroke electric washers, with an M22-14mm fitting and an M22-15mm adapter. The FIXFANS gun lists Portland, TaskForce, Husky, Ford, TaskMaster, Powerwasher, Pulsar, ShopForce and some Black and Decker models, and connects only to a pressure washer hose, not a garden hose.

What size O-ring do I need?

Measure the old ring before ordering. Small rings are 14.0mm outside, 9.2mm inside and 2.4mm deep, and fit 1/4 inch and M22 fittings. Large rings are 17.1mm outside, 11.8mm inside and 2.65mm deep, and fit 3/8 inch fittings. The kit holds 50 pieces, 25 of each size.

Can I connect a pressure washer gun to a garden hose?

No. A pressure washer gun connects to a pressure washer hose, not a garden hose; the FIXFANS gun states this plainly. The garden hose joins the washer at the inlet instead, through a coupler like the YJLY 3/4 inch adapter.

What do the nozzle tip angles mean?

Each tip sets the width of the spray, from a 0 degree jet at the narrow end to a 65 degree fan at the wide end. The Axfvd kit holds 5 tips in 0, 15, 25, 40 and 65 degrees, and the FIXFANS jet nozzle wand adjusts from 0 to 65 degrees, while its turbo nozzle wand spins a 25 degree pinpoint stream for stubborn dirt.
