Kwikstop Rapid Shut-off Nozzle Bodies
Kwikstop nozzle bodies remove air trapped in the spray boom so nozzle bodies shut off faster and nozzle run-on is significantly reduced.

They are interchangeable with most bottom take-off style nozzle bodies and are an easy, cost effective, retrofit on existing sprayers or can be ordered on new sprayers.

We even applaud Robin Hood for stealing. But when you are the boss and you have to decide whether to fire employees or fudge numbers so you can keep them on board, the decision might be more difficult.
