Is the Tomahawk sprayer compatible using Boracare? Also is made to handle and not corrode while using Zerotol?

Answer:

The Boracare solution is a very viscous product that should be mixed thoroughly in a bucket, before transferring into a standard hand pump style sprayer, with a maximum pressure 35 psi. A sprayer such as the Tomahawk 1.6HP Skid Sprayer Mount Honda GX35 100ft Hose 500 PSI Pump (TBS500) would not be appropriate for a Boracare application and the materials thickness may cause it to clog. While the ZeroTol 2.0 SDS states it can be corrosive to metal, the manufacturer of the skid sprayer states "Built for the toughest jobs, Tomahawk direct drive pumps are made from anodized aluminum, copper, and brass for maximum resistance to corrosion to stand up to the harshest agricultural chemicals! "   You may want to speak to Tomahawk Power directly regarding use of the ZeroTol material in their pump and rig. You can reach their customer service and technical support team at 866-577-4476.
