Flame Fighter Original 1000 Nozzle: The Industry Standard for Indirect Fire Attack
Since 1987, the Flame Fighter Original 1000 Nozzle has defined the standard for piercing nozzles in the fire service. Engineered to provide immediate access to concealed fires, this tool allows firefighters to bypass structural barriers—such as roofs, walls, and flooring—to deliver high-volume suppression directly to the seat of the fire. By driving the nozzle into an attic, wall void, or mobile home without creating a large ventilation opening, crews can rapidly cool the environment and starve the fire of oxygen, significantly reducing the risk of flashover and backdraft before committing entry teams.
Unlike lightweight modular alternatives, the Original 1000 is a robust, fixed-length unit measuring 60 inches (5 feet). This dedicated design offers maximum rigidity and driving power, utilizing a heavy-duty steel applicator tube that acts as a battering ram to penetrate tough materials like plywood, light gauge metal, and drywall. Once inserted, the precision-engineered tip sprays a dense, multi-directional "water ball" covering up to 2400 square feet at 150 PSI. With a massive flow capacity of up to 300 GPM, it is capable of overwhelming intense fires in large void spaces quickly and efficiently.
Key Benefits:
- Proven Heritage: The original, time-tested design used by fire departments worldwide since 1987 for reliable indirect attack operations.
- Heavy-Duty Penetration: Fixed 60-inch steel construction provides the mass and stiffness required to drive through structural barriers with a sledgehammer.
- High-Volume Suppression: Delivers up to 300 GPM, creating a suffocating steam conversion that rapidly drops temperatures in enclosed spaces.
- Wide-Area Coverage: Disperses water in a 2400 sq. ft. pattern (at 150 PSI), ensuring total saturation of attics, hay lofts, or cargo containers.
- Complete Kit: Typically ships with mounting hardware (Model 5000), ensuring the tool is securely stowed and ready for rapid deployment on the apparatus.
- Replaceable Tip: The hardened steel piercing point is serviceable, allowing for easy replacement if dulled by repeated impacts against masonry or metal.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to commonly asked questions below.
-
What are the core performance specifications of the Original 1000 Nozzle compared to newer models?
The Original 1000 Nozzle is the time-tested standard (since 1987) for penetrating nozzles, delivering a flow rate of up to 300 Gallons Per Minute (GPM) at 150 psi. This high volume is identical to the lightweight 2500 series but is housed in a heavier, more robust steel chassis designed for extreme abuse. Its primary advantage is its proven track record of durability in rapid deployment scenarios where complex features are unnecessary, offering a simple "point-and-drive" solution for attacking concealed fires.
-
Is the "Battery Ram Style" construction capable of self-breaching walls without a sledgehammer?
Yes, the Original 1000 features a Battery Ram Style design, meaning it is weighted and balanced to act as its own kinetic energy tool. The operator can use the nozzle itself to slam through drywall, thin plywood, or siding, often eliminating the need for a secondary striking tool like a flathead axe. However, for heavier barriers like brick veneer or reinforced stucco, the rear strike plate allows for the use of a sledgehammer to drive the unit home.
-
What is the "water ball" coverage area once the nozzle is inside the void space?
Once the nozzle head penetrates the barrier, it creates a massive 2,400 square foot "water ball" (at 150 psi). This means the multi-directional spray pattern projects water and steam roughly 25 feet in every direction from the tip. This extensive coverage ensures that even if the nozzle is not perfectly centered in the attic or crawlspace, the cooling mist will reach the seat of the fire and suppress thermal runaway effectively.
-
Can the nozzle tip be replaced if it becomes damaged during forced entry?
Absolutely. The nozzle is designed with a replaceable piercing tip. Since the tip is the point of contact for smashing through concrete board, metal lath, and roofing shingles, it takes the brunt of the wear. The modular design allows departments to unscrew a dulled tip and replace it with a fresh one in the field, extending the service life of the main nozzle body indefinitely.
-
Does this model come with mounting hardware for apparatus storage?
Yes, the Original 1000 Nozzle comes standard with dedicated mounting hardware (Model 5000) included in the box. This ensures the heavy steel tool can be securely mounted inside the cab or compartment of the fire engine, preventing it from becoming a dangerous projectile during response. The brackets are designed for quick-release access, allowing firefighters to grab the tool and deploy it in seconds upon arrival.
