Westward 1ZTD1 Drum Pump Nozzle 1/4 in Transparent

Drum Pump Nozzle 1/4 Inch

The Westward 1ZTD1 is a transparent control valve nozzle designed for use with air operated grease pumps. It suits technicians who need a visible flow path during volume greasing tasks on shop floors and in garages. The clear body lets the operator confirm that grease is moving before it reaches the fitting. This item is new and ships in its original packaging.

Pressure And Inlet Limits

The nozzle is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 7,500 psi and accepts a 1/4 inch inlet connection. Exceeding the pressure rating can damage the valve or cause unsafe ejection of grease. The transparent housing does not change the pressure limit, so the same 7,500 psi ceiling applies. California Proposition 65 warnings indicate the presence of chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm.

Installation Notes

Thread the 1/4 inch inlet onto the pump outlet or hose end and tighten to prevent leaks under high pressure. A common issue is cross threading the inlet, which creates a path for grease to escape at 7,500 psi. The transparent material can crack if struck or overtightened with pipe wrenches. Always relieve system pressure before disconnecting the nozzle for cleaning or replacement.
