Karcher T Racer

Karcher Patio Cleaning Accessories

There are a wide range of purposely designed genuine Karcher accessories to undertake patio cleaning work at home or in a leisure environment.

Being perhaps the most well known brand of home user as well as commercial use pressure washers worldwide, Karcher have developed through innovation and cutting edge technology effective accessories, attachments, and detergents to bring dirty and soiled hard surface patios back to life.

Over the recent years one groundbreaking accessory they have developed and launched is their range of T Racer Patio Cleaner units.

Aimed primarily at the home owner and gardener, a Karcher T Racer is an attachment / accessory that fits the majority of their domestic jet pressure washers by way of fitment to the trigger gun and which when used cleans patios and other hard surface areas by the use of high pressure water alone.

A t racer is a shrouded shaped unit which contains rotating jet arms that spin round at a high speed allowing water to be blasted out in a concentrated area on the surface below.

Unlike a normal nozzle or "jet blaster" type nozzle that can be fitted to most pressure washers a karcher t racer is unique in the way it cleans hard surface areas on walls, floors, decking, and patios because of several design features:

T Racer Features 

Rotating fan type nozzles
Light weight
Shrouded design prevents splashback
Concentrated cleaning area
Common lance / gun fitments
Genuine OEM Karcher accessory

Although patio and deck cleaning has always been possible with the use of a jet washer, anyone that has used one in a traditional way either with the standard nozzle or a dirt blaster type nozzle will understand just how time consuming and labourious this job can be.

A standard pressure washer lance nozzle has a cleaning area only only a couple of inches wide when used on drives, paths, patios, slabs, and the like. A dirt blaster type nozzle has an even smaller cleaning area. This is because the pressure of the wter needs to be focussed on a small area for it to work. 

A t racer works in a completely different way. The shrouded unit first contains the water so none of the pressure is lost, a propeller type arm (s) then spins around at a very high speed which contains the cleaning jets themselves, out of which high pressured water is forced on to the surface area the t racer is placed upon.

The working area that is being cleaned at once is the area that is covered with the shroud of the unit.

Depending on which karcher t racer you purchase this can be from 6 to approximately 9 inches in size. This allows large flat hard suface areas to be cleaned and restored relatively quickly. Even vertical flat surfaces can be tackled with this patio cleaner accessory such as fences, walls, garage walls and doors, conservatory panels, and garden sheds and outbuildings.  

One of the newest t racer designs is the T200 model. This is aimed at the latest diy and consumer pressure washers in the Karcher model line up and differs from previous versions by way of it also having a built in scondary handle for improved handling and posioning when used on vertical surfaces.

The T200 is also packaged with several models of karcher pressure washers available from popular sales outlets including mail order companies such as the Ideal World Satellite Tv Shopping Channel, QVC, Argos, as well as many more.
