M-22 by 15mm/14mm Quick Connects for Pressure Washers Explained
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ก.ย. 2024
- Do you want to use a quick connect for your pressure washer wand or pistol gun? Here is a video I put together using the M-22 by 15mm/14mm quick connects. I had to do some research for this and was always lazy about it. So if you’re like me and want the easiest explanation, here it is.
UPDATE:1 year and still cranks within the first 2-3 pulls. Probably will buy another when this one finally does bite the dust th-cam.com/users/postUgkx43QMbQqu67IZadu9ou8Sg1BdrunMRNqX . No issues at all. Very happy with it.UPDATE: After 6 months of use and over 70 uses I would still highly recommend this pressure washer. It does vibrate a decent amount but never had it “walk” like others have mentioned. No oil leaks, still seems to run like the day I bought it. Still cranks within 2-3 pulls every time. Very happy with my purchase!Have used it about a dozen times now. Plenty of power, cranks up on 1-2 pulls every time. My only complaint would be I wish it was a little taller to make it easier to walk with it (hits my ankles a lot) and that the two hose connections were a little further apart but it hasn’t caused me any issues. Seems to run a good 1-1/2-2 hrs on a full tank, overall a well built machine and definitely worth the money in my opinion.
Yes it is
Man, figuring out the couplers for my pressure washer was an ordeal. I have a SunJoe that has M-22 15mm fittings, which was fine. When I purchased a new foam cannon that came with snubby gun, it was an M-22 14mm, so I was on the hunt for finding another coupler so I could quickly change between the snubby gun and the SunJoe gun which is a longer wand-type. Great video! This is definitely something folks need to think about. Keep 'em coming!
Oh, it can be a pain. Thanks for watching!!
Exactly! See you are passed figuring this out, I'm just scratching my head now what goes where. I'm building a setup for washing a car with deionized water having few QDs here n there also having another pressure washer with two more guns. Status now as I'm wring this, I'm still confused 😕 will have to watch this video probably 15 more times lol
Great video by the way, I do appreciate explaining all this!
Finally! I know exactly what I need, thanks to you sir! All the other videos I watched made it way too complicated. Thank you!
It’s not set in stone as far as 14 or 15mm. Pressure washers are different. But this should help guide u.
This is the video I've been looking for! Thank for posting. It has made my conversion easy.
Hope it helps
Thank you! I've seen many videos making comparisons of pressure washers, what foams, foam cannons and how-to's but your video explains what every new owner of a pressure washer needs to know. I also found another youtube video of someone with an electric Portland pressure washer (same as mine) changing the size of the o-ring to a little larger o-ring on the high pressure hose 14mm, it works perfectly and no adapter from 15mm to 14mm required.
Good advice u got there. Thank you
Thank very much i have a Generac power washer and i wanted quick connects but was not sure what to purchase your video helped me out tremendously. Again thank you for explaining.
Hopefully it works for you. Not all PW’s are equal but this works in my situation and many others I’ve done research on. Thanks for watching
Good video on pressure washer fittings. I have the same AR Blue and had to deal with this adapter issue. I also switched to a gun. Much easier to foam cannon with the gun. Keep the videos coming, they are always helpful.
Thank u and thanks for watching

Wow referring back to this video and my newly purchased electric is m22 by 14mm! I'm pretty surprised... My last unit was the same company Simoniz and it was 15mm. I'm glad they switched and I'm even more glad I checked with a caliper. Time to go buy all the needed hardware for my new unit
Yes, the video doesn’t work for all but many it should help
This video helped me so much to find the right fittings for my electric pressure washer ! Very helpfull
Glad I could help. It took me a while to figure it out.
Maybe I'm a dummy.
The first time I used by RYOBI electric pressure washer, it leaked like crazy. I think I've figured this out now. Thank you sir.
I have a Mechpro Blue petrol washer that has M22-15mm spigots and am going through the process of converting to Quick connect. I bought my adapters from Aliexpress. Took a couple of goes because the sent 14mm!
Also, I am sure you can get adapters from the thread on your lance (maybe 3/8?) to the 3/8 QC, so 1 less adapter hanging off the end.
Instructions are very clear, thank you very much, I’m going to follow your instructions to a “T”
Thanks for watching, good luck!
Great video! Thank you! Best one I've seen yet, as far as explaining the connections, and where they go!
Thank u, I’m glad it helped. I know I was confused
I wish I had seen your video yesterday before I spend all day on Amazon. I'm trying to make my Ryobi surface cleaner work with my AR Blue 383. I had to find an adapter for the AR Blue gun and figure out what size reducers I need to make my 1/4 pressure washer extension pole work. I'm waiting for my package to arrive. I suspect I'll make a trip to Ace hardware store where they actually know what they're doing to find a reducer. Thanks for your video. It was still helpful.
It’s not for sure but it was my experience
Thanks for the video explanation. I have Kobalt Canadian brand 2000psi electric pressure washer, appears to be based on AR brand which is also blue so it is m22-15mm. Now to decide which gun to buy. alot of kits now come with both 14 and 15mm connect.
Nice, hope it all works out.
Thanks bud, this video saved me a bunch of time.
Awesome, thank you for watching

That is really awesome man!!!! Thank you for sharing I need to do this to my gas pressure washer when I switch out the gun to the soap sprayer other wise I have to turn the water off release the pressure and unthread and rethread the hose back on man thank you for sharing that.
You’re welcome
Always a good video man
Appreciate u watching.
thank you. i couldn't figure out why i couldn't get the adapters on my electric when the gas generator was fine.
Hope it helped
It did. I thought I needed to sand it down but I decided to watch some videos about the pressure washers and see if electric and gas are different. Thanks for the explanation.
Thank you for this video. I think I understand now what I need to get. I have a gas pressure washer excell with a Honda GC 190 w/ a 6 HP from Home Depot snd it’s been discontinued. I need to replace the hose which is a 5/16 hose with 3/8 quick connectors. Im hoping I can get a 5/16 Flexzilla hose and try to use these M22 connectors M14 and hope I can make it work. Thanks again.
I wish u all the best!!!
I’ve done the same thing except I just used one fitting....electrics are 15mm and gas are 14mm.....on my electric washer I installed a 15mm m22 x 14mm m22...( one fitting)... I don’t use the hose that came with the electric washer anymore...not very good anyway....now everything I use is the standard 14mm...I can use all my attachments for either washer with no extra fittings and with the quick couplers it’s fast to switch back to other washer if I need to.......also the the one hose I bought was a ryobi from Home Depot is 35 feet long and it c ame with a m22 male x m22 male....with that fitting I can hook the two hoses together and now I have 60’ of hose .....i only use one washer at a time....the reason I have a gas and an electric is because I use the gas for bigger things needing more pressure but you can’t set it down for any length of time....the electric however you can set it down and pick it back up without bothering the pump and it’s plenty of pressure for most everything......the Quick coupler fitting on the bottom of your gun is 3/8” ....the 1/4” is on the output of your gun for your tips.....I also have all male couplers on the washers and the females on the hose...easier to connect and disconnect

Me too my gas and ryobi electric pressure washers uses m22 14mm but I got a different one and it’s m22 15mm and when I put the 14mm to the 15 it leaks so I bought a adapter m2215 female to m22 14mm adapter from amazon I’ll repost when it arrives
Great Information but some people like myself may not find that product available on Amazon for whatever reasons in that case you may want to go to Either Home Depot or a Local Hardware Business where they sell Electric or gas Power washers and the accessories.Down load the app for a quick look at their inventory 😉 Good Luck with the Hunt.👍🏼
True
As long as you are working from 8am on in the mornings, you are fine in almost every state for noise ordinances. Why worry about waking people up?? SMH BTW great video!
Here in Vegas, it’s super hot and lots of people are working before 8am. Along with that, many people work for the casinos. And they have 3 shifts, one being swing. That’s a 8pm-4am shift. It’s just being courteous to them that we don’t want to make noise.
@@DetailingBreakdown That is ridiculous. You might want to tell the mayor of Vegas to stop all the prostitution, police and fire calls, and god forbid....people driving their cars 24/7 to make sure the casino workers can sleep and not hear any noise!
@@mattbingham2856 no, we don’t live in casinos my friend. We actually have houses off the strip. It’s a real thing here in vegas. We don’t live in casinos. 😂
I have the karcher pressure washer and that’s a whole different type of connector, I need an adapter for it but I also want the swivel part as well. Idk what to do
His whole life is a quick connect!
He's pro at connect the dots.
On the frazilla one is the quick connects easily attach on garden hose
Thanks
@@DetailingBreakdown do u recommend the regular one or the swivel frazilla
@@aztekk296 I have no idea about that. I’m sorry
thanks i learn something👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks for watching
Thank you for posting. I’m assuming the diameter has less to do with gas v. electric, as it is PSI - PSI increases substantially as you move up to a gas engine. Or, maybe it’s a war of standards as a proxy for market place manipulation.
I’m not sure but I think it’s a cost issue. They are saving money somewhere
(Note: A “TL; DR” synopsis is at the bottom of this comment, below.)
*Long story:*
Ok, so I have a RYOBI electric pressure washer (M# 141600, I think?). It had a trigger gun and a brass extension wand but both were lost when I moved.
I bought a compatible aftermarket brand replacement gun/wand set and they fit my machine and hose well, they don’t leak, and generally work great.
However, I can’t use my various nozzle tips with the trigger gun *only;* I *must* use the extension wand which has the quick connect fitting on the end, whereas the tip on the trigger gun is the black collared swivel type with a screw on connection.
What I want to know is what adapter/fitting/coupler do I need in order to convert my trigger gun swivel tip to a quick connect? I can’t figure out how to remove/replace the swivel tip on the gun, and I don’t want a bunch of different fittings/couplers stacked up on the non-removable gun tip in order to have a quick connect on the trigger gun. The point is to keep the trigger gun as close to its standard 13” length as possible. I don’t anticipate using the extension wand often because and it is roughly the same length as my trigger gun. Using both together gives me a ridiculously and excessively long wand that is just not logical, necessary, or practical for the majority of tasks for which I use my PW.
Please someone help me! I’ve been trying to figure this out for a week.
Thx in advance! 😊
*Short story:*
TL; DR: I can’t remove the swivel screw-on tip to my RYOBI 1600 psi pressure washer trigger gun.
It’s not a quick connect.
I need it to be a quick connect.
Which fitting do I need to buy to convert the existing tip to a quick connect?
I have no idea about Ryobi, sorry
The size doesnt have to do with wether its gas or electric, i have a 3100 ryobi gas and a 1500 greenworks electric and the size are both 14 mm its really just the brand and what they rather use for their brand just gotta look up what size the brand uses that youre looking to buy or are using
Interesting, thanks
The coupler needed to connect two 50 foot pressure washer hoses so get 100 foot of hose?
Idk
thank you I have pulling my hair trying to figure this shit out
Hope it helped
it did I could not get a hose I bought to connect to any quick connect connectors I bought. Just purchased a 15mm to quick connect on amazon for my electric machine. Apparently that was the key! lol @@DetailingBreakdown
@@toddhunt2087are you using the stock power hose for your electric powerwasher?
I'm going through the same exact situation as we speak. I had to send back a m22/14mm quick connect kit and the uberflex powerhose had to go back.
My electric washer was leaking alot from the pressure hose connection to the power washer.
No I was using one from griots garage which was apparently one I could of got of Amazon. But anyway gas and electric fittings use a different size. I had to get one for a gas pressure washer. But I have electric. It’s they use a different mm size.
@@toddhunt2087 you figure it all out?
Thank You!
Thank u for watching
@Detailing Breakdown. Thanks for the video. Now I know what I need, but I can't find it. I've searched Amazon, but can find exactly what I need. I have a Snap-On brand electric power washer that has the larger 15mm diameter w/O-ring male at the end of hose. I bought a stubby gun, and it came with a fitting with 3/8" diameter male end that threads into gun. The other end of that fitting will accept a hose with 14"mm diameter w/O-ring male at the end of hose. Can you post a link to the fitting you found, which is the one I need?
It’s so long ago, I don’t have that link. Sorry
I just got a gun it won’t connect to my electric pressure washer thx for help
Not all guns have the same connectors. U have to check around.
Why need background music? The answer is: no need.Thanks for the video
Just mute ur tv
Are you serious? Why need to ask about the background music? No need to ask.
Thank you
You’re welcome
nice video but you didnt identify what size connectors for the garden hose inlet on the electric unit. What size M22 is needed for the inlet on the electric pressure washer? What size quick connects are needed for the inlet? Any help there would be appreciated.
I’m sorry, it’s been a long time since and I have sold all of that set up.
Thanks for at least replying, much appreciated, be well
@@swirll360 you’re welcome, sorry I couldn’t help.
Hi THere, very informative video, and many thanks for doing this vid.
At 6.59 to 7.03 mins in the video, what do you called the Brass connector from your main grey and yellow hose as well as at 8.30 mins with your Dual Tap/faucet where the second outlet for deionized water came out. i have a Nilsfisk C140 pressure washer Power control and it's hard finding all the bits for it.. any help would be appreciated for someone in the UK. Cheers. Hans.
I’m not sure of the names. I bought a quick connection set and it came with everything. Sorry
Aren’t ryobi electric m22 14mm? I know sun Joe’s electric are m22 15mm. So I don’t think all electric are the same.
I’m really not sure about Ryobi. Just going by what I have.
@@DetailingBreakdown gotcha. I just checked and my ryobi electric pressure washers are m22 14mm. Hopefully someone can be helped by my information that not all electric pressure washers have the same fittings.

I need a extension for a Stihl RE90. I can’t find what style connector it has.
I have no idea, sorry
Higher end electric that are close to 3000 psi are M22-14. im guessing its Pressure dependent
Could be
So I can QC the output port on my electric pressure washer? Would you recommend the port to be male or female? My pressure washer takes a m22 15mm.
You will have to look at what’s going on in your own set and determine what u need.
On the frazilla hose do I need the regular one or swivel which 1 is easier to do the quick connect on
I’m not sure, Sorry. I just have regular quick connections
??? I understand that the male barrel on the quick connector has to match the female receptor built into the pressure washer. If I buy an M22x15mm quick connector and attach it to the built-in fitting on the pressure washer, all is well because the hose will have a standard 3/8" male connector just like those I use on my air compressor hoses. The stubby gun should have a quick connect that will accept the standard 3/8" male connector on the hose. The stubby gun has an M22 thread on its female fixture. What size inner barrel does it have? What am I missing?
I have learned that many cases are different and the quick connects needed may also differ. I’m not an expert to any brand and they all seem to have their own size requirement. This is what worked for me. But these 2 sizes should be all u need in either case. Sorry if my video confuses u.
@@DetailingBreakdown Apologies are appreciated but unnecessary. It's my understanding that is the problem or was the problem. I measured my stubby gun inlet fitting. It is M22x14mm; therefore with my setup - Portland electric pressure washer and ]this stubby gun from Amazon (www.amazon.com/Sooprinse-Pressure-Connect-Nozzles-Con), I need an M22x15mm for the pressure washer connection and this M22x14mm female connector from Amazon (www.amazon.com/Twinkle-Star-Connect-Fitting-Pressure/dp/B071JHHCMR/ref=sr_1_3?crid=2GWZXTZ9PUBS2&keywords=m22+quick+connect+3%2F8&qid=1666028752&qu=eyJxc2MiOiIzLjUxIiwicXNhIjoiMy40MCIsInFzcCI6IjMuMzMifQ%3D%3D&sprefix=M22+quick+connect%2Caps%2C222&sr=8-3) for the 3/8" barrel for the gun to hose connection.
Thanks for your information and for the stimulus to get this figured out.
@@rhhutchins194 it took me a while to figure it out. Some trial and error and yes, some quick connections I had to get on Amazon as well. The hardware stores just didn’t carry what I needed.
I cant remove the stock hose on my small craftsman water pressure , ive chewed up the plastic part on it so bad . any tips?
Vice grips
Is National Pipe Thread ?
Hi i have karcher K2 but i have an external hose that needs a connector
Cool, let us know
What is the adapter that connects the gun to the quick connect?
I forget what u call them. But u can find them at hardware stores
after i put on the teflon wrap around the fittings, the one under the connect from the hose to the gun is leaking out a lot of water? I have the teflon on every fitting? Any suggestions
I’m not sure about your set up. Could be cheap fittings, may need rubber “O” rings. I have no idea. Sorry
@@DetailingBreakdown Brand New Hyper Tough 1600 PSI Electric Pressure washer brand new fittings just like you have on your video I paid $23 from Amazon I put in a washer, it helped but still leaking water?maybe somebody will read this that has the same problem? Thanks for the speedy reply
Hey nice vid do you have the link for the 15mm ?
I don’t, sorry
I bought the 2300 psi bauer electric pressure washer and the uber flex but it leaks. Which adapters do I need? I want to make them quick connect aswell
I don’t know anything about that pressure washer. Look into 14 mm and 15 mm adapters
I just sent my Uberflex back to Amazon, they are 14mm. Sounds like your pressure washer is a 15mm. You may need to use the stock powerhose that came with your pressure washer.
I'm looking for a 15mm power hose that's 50ft....
great video but can i connect it at karcher?
I don’t have a Karcher so I’m not sure. This works with most pressure washers. Does your Karcher have end fitting like this? If so then it will probably work. U will have to be the judge on that.
PLEASE HELP - I have a Jet USA RX550 3500PSI pressure washer. I bought an upgraded hose which came with quick connect attachments in m22 14mm size. The pressure washer unit has a fixed male end thread which I wrapped in teflon tape to prevent leaking. The m22 14mm quick connect fits over this male thread. I checked the O-ring of the quick connect which is brand new, has no damage and the quick connect is screwed down as tight as I can muster. The leak still happens and flows from the back of the quick connect attachment. To eliminate all possibilities I'm going to ask a very stupid question. Is it possible that the male thread which is permanently attached to the pressure washer an m22 15mm size? If so, an m22 14mm quick connect wouldn't be able to be screwed on right? Just trying to determine whether I need a coupler to go from m22 15mm to 14mm. My eyes aren't the best to measure the diameter of the connection
It’s possible
I'm going through the same kinda thing. Look for the description of your appliance to see if it mentions if it's a 14mm or 15mm. If you can't find it, try calling the company to ask.
Great vid. Are the hose ones 14 mm?
@@cantraderinc.273 thank you, I’ve long hotties of that set up. Can’t remember about hoses. Sorry.
Good vid but not all electric washers are 15mm. I have a Ryobi electric 2300 and also 3300 washer. Both M22 and universal. You can use 14 or 15. Just throwing that out there
Right on
U save my money 😹
Great!
I think you'll find that the majority of uk electric washers are m22 - 14, karcher is 14mm
I’m from the USA so I have to take your word for it. Ty
i got a quick disconnect kit from amazon also when i done pressure washing i cannot disconnect it is because of a cheap brand? should i buy a more expensive brand? or anything i can do with the existing setup? or what brand of quick disconnect do you recommend? thanks
Put some grease in the bearings at the tips. See if that helps. I do it from time to time
@@DetailingBreakdown this is brandnew fittings
@@phat_gunpla_etc grease em and then break them in. Some are smaller than others. I have 2 that look the same size but one has 8 bearings and the other 6. Some foam cannons don’t fit in both.
@@DetailingBreakdown thank you sir!
Hi What about the pump side of electric washer say if you want to fit an inline pressure gauge from the pump side
Sorry, that’s way above my pay grade
What is the advantage of a 15mm over a 14 mm ? Why don’t they make hoses in both ?
I don’t know
Paraphrased... The E-Pressure Washer industry added $$ to the cost of the machine. Kind of a dick move.
so obviously the M22/15 mill is a bigger diameter? my ryobi 1900 electric has the smaller inside diameter M22/14 mill outlet on it.
Good video but misleading on 14mm vs 15mm. It really goes off manufacturers of the pressure washer not gas vs electric
Right on
great info I wish i would have seen this video earlier I had to buy a few of each 14 and 15 and play around trying to figure out which goes where. Finally got it but now i have to figure out the down stream set up thing . I have a pressure washer that has the built in chem tank and down streamer already attached. Id like to use my current DSI but since there is already one built in im not quite sure how id go about using mine id have to take the one thats in there out i suppose however my DSI would not fit in the area the built in one one is currently in
Umm, I’d have to see it to understand more. Sorry I can’t help.
Can u had a link 🙏🏻
Don’t have links, u have to shop online or in a store
So if the exit of my pressure washer is a 15mm and I want to use a 14mm hose like flexzilla do I just get 2 m2214mm?

@@janwilliams4282 no, it’s probably confusing to most
@@DetailingBreakdown for dummies like me this is what I believe would be helpful. Introduce the connector that takes the 15 mm and reduces it to 14 mm so it can be used with the hoses that fit gas pressure washers.
Then take that connector and screw it on the electric pressure washer, then take the 14 mm male quick connector and screw it onto that, then connect it to the hose. Maybe I’m wrong and what I said was incorrect. But if I’m right, that would take about 60 seconds and be very helpful to new users like myself. All of the other information is superfluous.
