A bleach resistant sprayer is built and rated as a whole unit for sodium hypochlorite: the Klager and Gloria bleach models pair VITON (FKM) seals with bleach resistant parts, and EPDM sealed sprayers are also rated for bleach and chlorine. The manufacturers specify the spring as well as the seals, so buy a unit sold and rated for bleach rather than a standard sprayer. The same goes for any chlorine sprayer.
NORA PRO supplies bleach resistant mini and poly pressure sprayers, a foam sprayer, spray guns and the EPDM and VITON parts that keep them running. Tell us your product and its concentration and we will confirm the unit. Pricing is on quote.
Two ways to handle bleach
Dedicated bleach models. The Klager 1.2L Bleach Resistant and the Gloria PRO 500 JET Bleach Resistant use VITON (FKM) seals with bleach resistant parts. Klager's labels warn against using its bleach sprayers for petroleum based solutions, acids, alkalis or mixed chemicals, so keep them for bleach and chlorine.
EPDM sprayers. General compatibility charts favour EPDM for sodium hypochlorite, and Klager rates its EPDM sealed 1.2L Alkaline Resistant for bleach and chlorine up to 12.5 per cent. That model is built for caustics, so if caustic cleaners are your main job, see our alkaline resistant sprayers.
For mould and sanitising, a foamer holds chlorine on the surface longer. Bleach is one of four builds in our range of chemical resistant sprayers. See the Chemical Compatibility Guide, and our article on spraying sodium hypochlorite.

Common questions
Do bleach resistant sprayers use EPDM or VITON seals?
Either can work when the whole unit is rated for bleach. The Klager and Gloria bleach models use VITON (FKM) seals with bleach resistant parts, and Klager's EPDM sealed 1.2L sprayer is also rated for bleach and chlorine.
Can I spray sodium hypochlorite?
Yes, with a sprayer sold and rated for bleach. Confirm the concentration against the SDS for strong solutions.
What is the best chlorine sprayer for sanitising?
A bleach rated pressure sprayer, or a foamer if you want longer contact time on walls and equipment.
Can I use my bleach sprayer for other chemicals?
No. Klager's labels warn against petroleum, acid, alkaline or mixed chemicals in its bleach sprayers. Keep one labelled sprayer for bleach.
