PRODUCT CHANGE — Changes to Crimping on Select Nozzles
August 4, 2020
Effective immediately, you may notice a slight change to the crimp area of some Tregaskiss® nozzles. Within our manufacturing process, we have begun to transition from six-jaw to eight-jaw crimpers. Rest assured that the durability and performance of Tregaskiss nozzles will remain the same.
The only difference you will notice is a slight change limited to the crimp area of the nozzle. The difference is shown below:
