Check Out This Hobart Dishwasher Spray Arm

It's the old cast iron version in steel.

Oh man how much water this thing must push!

This is for their commercial line

it wouldn't fit in a KDS14 etc. too wide.
But it does push water as it sits atop a half horsepower motor pumping away full blast, you can feel the water hitting the stainless sides of the dish hood!!

It resembles their original spray arm in the 1919 model I saw restored at the Hobart booth at the Restaurant Show a few years back. Beautiful machine, all copper on the outside, brass spray arm, and Spruce wooden racks for the dishes and glass ware!!
It had a funny name back then, something to due with the "moon at night" if I remember correctly.

Beautiful restoration by a guy who worked for Hobart for many many years.

$119.00

Wow, that's a lot. I'd like to buy it and make a lawn sprinkler out of it!

That reminds me...

Once I find some green, blue, or even turquoise powder, I'm gonna bead blast the cast iron arm from my '58 KA KD2P and give it a brand new coat of polyester or whatever they sell.

Right now all I got is white, black, red, and yellow powder. Tried the red and the yellow - the yellow looks best so far. Kind of a school bus yellow. Might not look bad at the bottom of the tub, but I think the stock color is closer to turquoise.
