FAQ

What is a ball jet, and how is it used in sewer cleaning?

A ball jet nozzle is a type of sewer jetter nozzle with a distinct spherical shape. These are general cleaning nozzles designed to clear pipes of debris, clogs, and build-up. The shape of these nozzles allows them to move easily in tight spaces or around bends, making them ideal for residential lines or restaurant systems. The flat areas on the sides of ball nozzle are designed purposefully for easy wrench gripping for removal and installation.

How do ball nozzles differ from other sewer cleaning nozzles?

The main distinguishing feature of ball nozzles is their shape. Their rounded design allows them to work in pipes with many bends and turns. Ball jet nozzles can easily glide over joints and curves making them a versatile tool for plumbing professionals. They are available in many sizes and jet configurations as well.

What is the best application to use a ball nozzle in?

Ball jet nozzles are ideal for general purpose cleaning and moving debris.

How do I know what jet configuration I need for my ball jet nozzle?

US Jetting offers ball nozzles in 1/8”, 3/8”, and ½” sizes with a variety of jet configurations. The end use application determines what jet set up would be ideal. Ball nozzles that are 3 Rear 1 Forward are general use nozzles because the forward jet will blast through debris while the rear jets will flush it back down the pipe. The 6 Rear ball jet would predominantly be used when you want to bring all debris back towards you, but no penetrating power is needed. The 6 Rear 1 Forward would be utilized when the pipe has blockages where additional rear jets are needed to thrust the nozzle down the pipe.

How do I know what size ball jet nozzle I need?

The size of the ball nozzle should match the hose end size of the sewer hose its being attached to. US Jetting offers ball nozzles in 1/8”, 3/8”, and ½”. Be aware that not all overall hose diameters match the hose end diameter (i.e. ¼” USJ Mini Hoses have 1/8” ends, and 5/8” USJ hoses have ½” ends), so it’s important to know the real hose end diameter.

Can I clean the jets of a ball nozzle with regular tip cleaners?

Yes, because the jets of a ball nozzle are steel, you can use a regular tip cleaning to remove any debris. The only inserts that require a specific type of tip cleaner are nozzles with ceramic inserts.

What factors should be considered when choosing a jet nozzle for sewer cleaning?

The factors to consider when choosing a nozzle include the size of the pipe and hose, the type of debris in the pipe, the nature of the job (i.e. general cleaning or removing a hard blockage), and the layout of the pipes. It could be necessary to use multiple nozzles to complete a job successfully.

Are these nozzles compatible with all sewer cleaning equipment?

US Jetting’s ball jet nozzles are specific to a jetter’s pressure and flow. They are available in various sizes to accommodate many type of high pressure water jetters.

How frequently should ball jet nozzles be inspected and replaced?

Nozzles used frequently should be inspected once a week when to ensure debris doesn’t build up inside the jets. Ensure all jets are free of debris by cleaning them with a tip cleaner to optimize the performance and increase the safety of the nozzle.

Can these nozzles be used for preventive maintenance in addition to clearing blockages?

Yes, ball nozzles are great tools for removing clogs and for performing preventative maintenance. Hydro jetting has a long-lasting effect on sewer pipes, making it more efficient and thorough than snaking lines.
