DEF Polymer Nozzle for Fuel Island Dispensers

Husky is the only manufacturer with a DEF Polymer nozzle that meets UL safety standards, required for hanging hardware on island dispensers. Island dispensing is likely to increase along with the growing number of diesel powered vehicles using DEF. The urea-based fluid is sprayed into diesel exhaust to breakdown harmful emissions. Diesel powered tractor-trailers use about 15 gallons of DEF for every 1,000 gallons of diesel fuel.

The DEF Polymer nozzle weighs just over 1.5 pounds, thanks to a durable Acetal body, and is loaded with safety features including a stainless steel StreamShaper® spout, automatic shut-off system, and Flo-Stop® device.

Lightweight, Durable DEF Nozzle Meets UL Safety Standards

The DEF Polymer nozzle passed rigorous UL tests for long term exposure to aggressive fluids and extreme temperatures, electrical continuity, high pressure, and cycle repetition without failure.

“The most difficult test is for long term exposure. We are pleased the components and engineering used in the DEF Polymer nozzle more than measure up to DEF nozzles that are heavier and more expensive,” said Roger Wiersma, Husky Corporation Product Engineer.
