The Orbit Adjustable Plastic Impact Sprinkler is a high-performance irrigation head designed for expansive coverage and consistent water distribution. Constructed from high-strength, UV-resistant polymers, this unit is engineered to provide reliable service in diverse environmental conditions without the risk of corrosion often associated with metal components.
Core Engineering and Adjustability
- Versatile Arc Selection: The sprinkler features an easy-to-use friction collar that allows for full 360-degree rotation or a specific partial-circle arc. This adjustment ensures that water is concentrated on the landscape, preventing unnecessary runoff on surrounding structures or pavements.
- Precision Deflector Shield: An integrated deflector flap allows for the modification of the stream distance and trajectory. This provides the user with the ability to scale the spray radius to fit smaller garden zones or expand it for large lawn areas.
- Heavy-Duty Impact Arm: The weighted impact arm is designed to provide a slow, steady rotation, allowing for deeper soil penetration. This mechanism is engineered to operate effectively even in systems with high mineral content or non-potable water.
- Diffuser Screw Mechanism: A stainless steel diffuser screw breaks the water stream into smaller droplets. This ensures uniform coverage close to the sprinkler head, eliminating the dry spots often found in lower-quality irrigation systems.
Operational Performance
Equipped with a standard 1/2-inch male pipe thread inlet, this sprinkler is compatible with a wide variety of bases, including spikes, tripods, or fixed risers. It is optimized for medium-to-large watering areas, capable of reaching a spray diameter of up to 24 meters depending on the available water pressure.
The straight-through flow design is particularly effective in residential and agricultural settings where water might contain small particulates, as it is less prone to clogging than gear-driven models. The robust construction ensures the unit remains stable during high-pressure operation, providing a dependable and cost-effective solution for large-scale turf and garden maintenance.
