Why Choose an Extending Lance?
Safety First
Working at height is one of the most dangerous activities in commercial cleaning. Falls from ladders account for thousands of injuries every year. An extending lance allows you to clean high areas while keeping both feet firmly on the ground - dramatically reducing risk and improving safety compliance.
Faster, More Efficient
No time wasted setting up ladders, moving scaffolding, or repositioning equipment. Simply extend the lance to the required height and clean. What used to take hours can now be completed in minutes.
One Person Operation
No need for a second person to hold ladders or assist with scaffolding. One operator can safely and efficiently clean high areas, reducing labour costs and improving productivity.
Professional Results
Maintain consistent pressure and cleaning angle even at height. The rigid construction prevents flexing and wobbling, ensuring professional results on every job.

Construction & Design:
Fibreglass & Aluminium Construction
The combination of fibreglass and aluminium provides the perfect balance of strength, rigidity, and light weight. Fibreglass sections are non-conductive (safer around electrical installations) while aluminium provides structural strength without excessive weight.
Telescopic Design
Extends smoothly from 2 metres to 3.6 metres, allowing you to adjust reach precisely for different tasks. When collapsed to 2 metres, it's compact enough for easy transport and storage.
Removable M22 Extension
The removable M22 extension section allows you to use the lance at different lengths depending on your needs. Use the full 12ft extension for maximum reach, or remove sections for lower work.
Professional Fittings
M22M inlet connection fits standard pressure washer guns, while the 1/4" female outlet accepts standard pressure washer nozzles. AR1 quick-release fittings are included for fast nozzle changes.
Performance Specifications:
275 Bar Maximum Pressure
Rated for up to 275 bar (3988 PSI), this lance handles even the most powerful professional pressure washers. The robust construction maintains pressure delivery even at full extension.
30 L/min Maximum Flow
Designed to handle flow rates up to 30 litres per minute - suitable for high-flow commercial machines. The internal bore is sized to minimize pressure drop even at maximum flow.
90°C Temperature Rating
Suitable for use with hot water pressure washers up to 90°C. This makes it perfect for degreasing applications and sanitization work at height.
Safety Considerations:
Working at Height Regulations
In the UK, working at height regulations require employers to do everything reasonably practicable to prevent falls. Using an extending lance instead of ladders demonstrates compliance with these regulations and reduces liability.
Proper Use Guidelines
-
Maintain stable footing - Always work from a stable, level surface
-
Be aware of overhead hazards - Watch for power lines and obstacles
-
Control the lance - The extended lance creates leverage - maintain firm control
-
Use appropriate nozzles - Wider spray patterns are easier to control at height
-
Wear PPE - Safety glasses essential - water and debris fall from above
Compatibility:
Pressure Washer Compatibility
The M22M inlet connection is the industry standard fitting, making this lance compatible with most professional pressure washers including:
- Kärcher professional machines
- Kranzle pressure washers
- BOSS BOYS equipment
- Nilfisk commercial machines

Nozzle Compatibility
The 1/4" female outlet accepts standard pressure washer nozzles. We recommend using wider spray patterns (25° or 40°) when working at height for easier control and better coverage.
Note: Nozzle NOT supplied - use your existing pressure washer nozzles.
Maintenance & Care:
-
Rinse after use - Flush clean water through the lance after each use
-
Check fittings - Regularly inspect connections for wear or damage
-
Lubricate telescopic sections - Keep extension mechanism smooth
-
