PMF U1520C-ST Low Profile Closed Spray Upholstery Tool with Stainless Steel Valve
The PMF U1520C-ST is the premium stainless valve version of the popular PMF low profile closed spray upholstery cleaning tool. This professional upholstery wand is designed for carpet cleaners, auto detailers, restoration contractors, and fabric cleaning specialists who want better overspray control, improved moisture management, and commercial-duty durability. Compared to the aluminum-valve U1520A and brass-valve U1520B versions, the U1520C-ST upgrades to a commercial-duty stainless steel valve rated for high-pressure, high-temperature extraction applications. This makes it an excellent choice for truckmount operators, restoration contractors, and upholstery cleaning professionals who demand maximum durability and long service life.
Key Features
- Closed spray design helps reduce overspray while cleaning upholstery, fabric, and vehicle interiors.
- Low profile cleaning head reaches into tight areas around cushions, booths, vehicle seats, RVs, boats, and aircraft interiors.
- Stainless steel valve offers improved chemical and corrosion resistance compared to lower-cost valve options.
- Professional upholstery extraction tool for portable extractors, heated machines, and truckmount carpet cleaning systems.
- Excellent for hot water extraction on furniture, mattresses, automotive interiors, office chairs, and commercial seating.
- 1.5" Pipe for use with standard hose cuffs.
Why Choose the U1520C-ST?
The U1520C-ST is built for users who want a more durable valve package than standard plastic, aluminum, or brass valve upholstery tools. The stainless steel valve is preferred by many professional cleaners because it handles heat, pressure, moisture, and cleaning chemical exposure better over time.
The closed spray head helps keep the cleaning solution contained inside the vacuum chamber. This makes the tool especially useful when working indoors, inside vehicles, around finished wood, near electronics, or anywhere overspray control is important.
