Product information & specifications
STIHL RCA 50 Cordless Pressure Washer - AK System 36V - 100 Bar
The STIHL RCA 50 is a portable handheld pressure washer for cleaning without a power or water connection. It delivers up to 100 bar maximum pressure (73 bar operating pressure) and weighs 3.5 kg with the AK 20 battery, or 2.3 kg without, powered by the STIHL AK System.
It comes with a 3-in-1 nozzle, spray lance extension, 5 m suction hose with filter, surface cleaner with castors and detergent spray set. The recommended AK 20 battery gives 12 to 15 minutes of working time, and the RCA 50 suits patios, garden furniture, barbecues, play equipment, bicycles and outdoor tools at home, on the allotment or at a campsite. Gustharts is an authorised STIHL dealer.
Key Features
- 100 bar maximum pressure, 73 bar operating pressure - with a flow rate of 230 to 270 l/h
- One-finger pressure and volume control - adjust the cleaning performance to the task without interruption, handy for quick jobs that need reduced pressure
- STIHL Constant Power - consistent performance as the battery charge drops
- 3.5 kg with AK 20 battery - 2.3 kg without the battery, with an integrated carrying ring for safe, compact storage
- Works from a hose or a water container - connect a garden hose, or attach the 5 m suction hose to draw from a water butt or tank; its integrated filter protects the machine from dirt, and it can also extend a garden hose
- Integrated nozzle in the gun - use it without the spray lance for sensitive surfaces such as garden furniture; turn it to change the jet direction
- Rotating spray lance - adapt the angle of the high-pressure jet to the job
- Surface cleaner with integrated castors - steer it with a turn of the lance around corners and patio furniture
- Detergent spray set - attaches to the spray lance to apply cleaning agent to the jet
Nozzles and Accessories Included
The RCA 50 comes with a 3-in-1 nozzle that attaches to the spray lance. Turn the nozzle head to switch between three modes with no manual nozzle change:
- Fan jet - the standard nozzle for normal dirt on various surfaces
- Rotary nozzle - for stubborn dirt on robust surfaces. Hold it at least 10 cm from the surface, because closer than that dirt and debris can rebound into the nozzle and block it
- Narrow jet - sprays water in a thin, focused line
Also supplied: spray lance extension, 5 m suction hose with filter, surface cleaner with castors and detergent spray set.
Battery Compatibility
The RCA 50 runs on the STIHL AK System (36 V). STIHL recommends the AK 20. STIHL's working times are 6 to 8 minutes on the AK 10, 12 to 15 minutes on the AK 20, and 16 to 20 minutes on the AK 30 and AK 30 S. The maximum water feed temperature is 40 °C.
