About: Elkhart Brass Manufacturing Co. Chief 4000-24 Fog Nozzle
Made by the Elkhart Brass Company, this modern-day firefighting nozzle is made of Elk-O-Lite, Elkhart’s proprietary aluminum alloy. It is capable of discharging both a stream of fog and straight water, and a balanced plastic ball in the nozzle helps produce a smooth shutoff mechanism. A fog nozzle splits the stream of water into tiny droplets that can quickly turn into steam and suffocate the fire.
