These are the most common nozzles used for turf applications and produce a fine to the medium droplet. Spray coverage is excellent but drift may be a concern. Air-induction These nozzles produce a medium to coarse droplet which shatters upon contact with the leaf blade to provide better coverage.

Flat-fan nozzles are widely used for broadcast spraying of herbicides. The band width can be controlled with the nozzle height and the spray angle. The low-pressure flat-fan develops a normal flat-fan angle and spray pattern at operating pressures between 15 and 20 psi.
