Elkhart Mini Stream Shaper - 2.5" - 03476201

## Elkhart Brass 2.5" Mini Stream Shaper - 03476201 The Elkhart Brass 2.5" Mini Stream Shaper is designed to reduce turbulence in the water flow before it reaches the nozzle, helping produce a smoother, more concentrated stream with improved stream quality and effective reach. Its compact, low-profile design provides the benefits of a traditional stream shaper while minimizing the additional length added to the water cannon assembly. Internal vanes straighten turbulent water as it passes through the shaper, helping the attached nozzle produce a more consistent discharge pattern. Constructed from lightweight aluminum, the Mini Stream Shaper is an excellent addition to water truck cannon systems where improved stream performance is desired without adding unnecessary size or weight. ### Features * Reduces turbulence in water flow * Helps improve stream quality and effective reach * Internal flow-straightening vanes * Compact, low-profile design * Lightweight aluminum construction * Designed for installation between the water cannon and nozzle * 2.5" inlet and outlet * Ideal for water truck cannon applications ### Specifications **Manufacturer:** Elkhart Brass **Manufacturer Part Number:** 03476201 **Model:** 282-A-MINI **Product Type:** Mini Stream Shaper **Inlet Size:** 2.5" Female **Outlet Size:** 2.5" Male **Thread:** NHT **Construction:** Aluminum **Length:** 2.3" **Weight:** 0.5 lbs. ### How a Stream Shaper Works Water traveling through a water cannon can develop turbulence as it moves through the plumbing, bends, and monitor body. This turbulent flow can negatively affect the quality and concentration of the stream leaving the nozzle. The internal vanes of the Mini Stream Shaper straighten the water flow before it reaches the nozzle, helping create a cleaner and more consistent discharge stream. This can improve both stream quality and effective reach. ### Water Truck Applications The 2.5" Mini Stream Shaper is an excellent addition to compatible water cannon systems used for: * Long-distance water application * Dust suppression * Mining and quarry operations * Construction sites * Road construction and maintenance * Equipment washdown * General water distribution
