Swivel between lance and trigger gun

Does anyone use a swivel between a dual-lance wand and the trigger gun? If you do, will a regular in-line swivel work? I am trying to figure out a way to reduce hand and wrist fatigue when rinsing, detailing and removing gum.

I have been using a short whip line between the trigger gun and pressure hose with another wand and that works well to reduce hand and wrist fatigue.

any ideas?

I use these for shopping centers and larger rinse areas, I had terrible carpel tunnel and these have almost made it non existant

Thanks Jim and Russ - I'll check both of those out. I like to use the dual-lance on initial cleans and restaurant type work for gum removal... I considered the open gun a while back, but forgot all about it. :crying: I went through a period of non-stop pain in my hands and wrists but used a velcro strap to hold trigger and that helped, but an open-gun would probably be better.

Thanks again guys.
 
Open guns all the way if your working full nights. The guns dont give you problems from getting too hot and the fatigue factor is gone. We use the Mosmatic 1/4 swivels between the gun and lance as well. The swivel just makes life easier

are you able to eliminate the male pipe swivel hose end that usually comes on one end of the pressure washer hose?
ie: make both ends of the solid male pipe.

Ok I now this is going to be stupid question but what is swivel on wand lance

A swivel that goes betweet the gun and lance. The one i use for car lots works great..i have a slight bend at the end of the lance and along with the swivel lets me hit every part of the car with much less discomfort on my wrist. It actually makes it go much faster also.
