At long last the good old HD lance has been overhauled, and a new plastic connector is now available that fits perfectly, with none of the hassles that characterised the old brass fittings (the reason why we refused to stock the old style lance). So, those of you wanting a top notch foam lance to fit your Karcher pressure washer can now find such an item in our store; see here...

I have the plastic adaptor from autobrite ( via DW ) and it works a treat. Dont know if they still do them but it makes such a difference.

Yes I can confirm it...blimey nothing like a grilling from DCI :eek: :p

It was a black plastic adaptor with brass connector. I took off the old brass adaptor, put the new one on with some ptfe tape, then just connected the new black plastic adaptor. cost me about £8 in total I think

For those needing just the plastic connector, it might be worth speaking with Rachel at Auto Rae Chem (see google for details), as she is a key supplier of these lances and may be able to help. :thumb:

Are you SURE :Suspiciou......... it's been a busy week, and you could've quite easily overlooked something. It's not like I'm doubting what you're telling me it's just that I would rather clarify that earlier statement to ensure that all ambiguity is removed for some of our other members who quite frankly may not fully appreciate the fact that all you receive is the adapter and may consider that to be only a partial delivery!.....

So then, that was it? just an adapter..... :)
