Plastic and breaks way to easy!
I already had to replace this part TWICE due to cracking plastic (along with leaking fluid your spraying) right after the shut-off. It was torqued very litle or about the same torque as a tire valve stem cap.
They need to build this part better.

NorthStar Single Nozzle Broadcast Lance
I purchased this product to spray herbicide on our food plots to prep them for burn off and discing. This product made the whole process much easier and faster. I also think we had better results because we could evenly apply the herbicide. This also resulted in costs savings on the herbicide because we definitely used less this year as compared to the last couple of years with a much more tedious method of application.
The only shortcoming we found was that the lance is unsupported except at the tank with a seemingly flimsy plastic clip. This allows the lance to bounce and fatigue the clip. We were able to overcome this with a support we made ourselves.

Expensive to Replace
I have had this boom for a couple of years now, it works great for spraying roads and fire breaks around my cabin. Last year however enough moisture got trapped in the elbow joint and valve that it froze and broke. I got online to buy a replacement and found it cost almost half what i paid for the whole 16 gallon rig. Looks like i'll have to be more carefull how i store it in the future.

this is a pretty good product, it does what I intended it to do. I mounted it on the back of my zero turn mower so I could spray while I mow. I had to order the kit to install the mounted spray nozzle so I could do this but it was worth it.

great value
This sprayer was perfectly fit ro my purpose. I use it on a 4 wheeler to maintain some old over grown pasture. It was delivered on time and set up was easy. I did have some leaking issues until all the lines and clamps "settled and were re torqued. The sprayer nozzle ball valve cracked after its first use but northern quickly sent me anothe assembly so I did not miss a beat on my schedule for getting things sprayed the second time. Great value and item worked as described....Thanks for the product and the quick service after sale.
