Flame Fighter 90 Degree Nozzle: Specialized Suppression for Confined Vehicle Fires
Vehicle fires present unique challenges for firefighters, particularly when flames are contained within engine blocks, trunks, or beneath heavy hoods that cannot be easily opened. The Flame Fighter 90 Degree Nozzle is a specialized piercing tool engineered to bypass these barriers, allowing crews to attack the fire directly at its source without exposing themselves to the dangers of a fully involved vehicle. Its rugged, hardened steel tip is designed to be driven through car hoods, body panels, and light sheet metal, creating an access point for water or foam application in seconds.
Once penetrated, the 90-degree head disperses a high-volume spray pattern of 125 GPM (at 100 PSI) laterally within the compartment. This wide-angle distribution rapidly cools the engine block or cargo area, suppressing flames and lowering temperatures enough to allow for safe secondary access. Available with or without an integrated shutoff valve, this nozzle is an essential tool for highway response units, airport rescue, and municipal departments looking to minimize time-on-scene and reduce the risk of flashover during vehicle suppression operations.
Key Benefits:
- Hardened Piercing Tip: Robust steel point is designed to be driven through hoods, trunks, and aircraft panels to access concealed fires.
- 90-Degree Spray Pattern: Delivers a lateral, room-filling water curtain that quickly cools engine compartments and suppresses flames from the inside out.
- High Flow Capacity: Rated for 125 GPM at 100 PSI, providing sufficient volume to overwhelm intense hydrocarbon and engine fires.
- Enhanced Safety: Allows firefighters to attack the fire from a safe distance before attempting to open hot or jammed hoods.
- Operational Versatility: Effective for vehicle fires, aircraft fuselage fires, and mobile home overhaul where wall penetration is required.
- Durable Construction: Built from chrome-plated steel and aluminum to withstand the physical impact of driving operations and high-heat environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to commonly asked questions below.
-
How does the 90-degree head improve safety when fighting electric vehicle (EV) or engine compartment fires?
The 90-degree head is tactically designed to direct water stream upwards or sideways into confined spaces that are otherwise inaccessible, such as the undercarriage of an Electric Vehicle (EV) where the battery pack is located. By sliding the nozzle pipe under the chassis, firefighters can deliver cooling water directly to the battery cells without having to crawl under the burning vehicle or lift it with struts. This remote application keeps the operator safe from thermal runaway explosions and toxic off-gassing while effectively targeting the seat of the fire.
-
What is the flow rate of this nozzle, and is it sufficient for rapid cooling?
The nozzle delivers a substantial 125 Gallons Per Minute (GPM) at standard operating pressures. This high-volume flow is critical for overcoming the intense heat release rate of modern vehicle fires, especially those involving lithium-ion batteries which require massive amounts of water for thermal management. Unlike lower-flow "misting" wands, this tool floods the compartment to rapidly drop temperatures and suppress reignition.
-
Can this nozzle be used to pierce hood or door panels?
While primarily designed as an applicator for void spaces, the Flame Fighter series nozzles typically feature a hardened steel tip capable of being driven through light operational barriers. However, the 90-degree model is best utilized for bypassing barriersāsliding under bumpers, through wheel wells, or into broken windowsārather than piercing heavy steel hoods. For direct penetration of metal body panels, the straight "penetrator" model (such as the 900 series) is the preferred piercing tool.
-
What hose connection size is required to operate this nozzle?
The nozzle comes standard with a 1.5-inch NH (National Hose) thread connection, making it compatible with the standard crosslay or bumper line found on almost every structural fire engine in North America. It does not require a specialized high-pressure booster reel; it connects directly to your standard 1.75" attack line (with the nozzle shut-off removed or via a break-apart nozzle).
-
Is the nozzle length sufficient to reach under low-profile vehicles without exposing the firefighter?
The tool features an extended applicator pipe (typically 4 to 5 feet in length) which provides critical standoff distance. This length allows the firefighter to stand upright or crouch safely away from the vehicle's bumper while positioning the 90-degree tip precisely where needed. This "remote reach" is essential for avoiding the "danger zone" of loaded bumpers, exploding struts, or magnesium flares often encountered during vehicle suppression.
