Orbit 55016 Brass Impact Sprinkler Head – Dual Nozzle, 3/4 in. MPT | Durable, Even Coverage

Orbit 55016 Brass Impact Sprinkler Head with Dual Nozzles

Designed for larger lawns, fields, and pastures, the Orbit 55016 Brass Impact Sprinkler Head blends rugged construction with flexible coverage. The dual nozzle setup allows close-in and far-out watering to work in tandem, helping you achieve more uniform moisture across the entire pattern while standing up to demanding outdoor conditions.

Key Benefits at a Glance

• Dual Nozzle Coverage: The 3/32-inch nozzle waters close-in areas while the 3/16-inch nozzle reaches farther distances, promoting even watering across the spray pattern.
• Durable Brass Construction: All-metal brass body with a weighted arm offers weather resistance and long-term reliability under higher pressures.
• Adjustable Pattern and Distance: Set the spray from 30 to 360 degrees with arc stops; the deflector shield adjusts the radius from 18 to 35 ft at 60 PSI.
• Wide Pressure Range: Functions from 20 to 80 PSI, with optimal performance around 60+ PSI for lawns, gardens, pastures, and agricultural settings.
• Easy Installation: A 3/4 in. MPT inlet connects to standard FPT couplings and PVC risers, compatible with Schedule 40/80 piping for above-ground or underground systems.

What You Get in Real-World Use

In practice, the combination of dual nozzles and a robust brass arm supports steady rotation and extended reach, even as pressure fluctuates. The sprinkler is well-suited for larger outdoor spaces where single-nozzle heads fall short, helping to cover wide areas with fewer gaps. The anti-backsplash tube, trip mechanism, and deflector shield contribute to predictable spray patterns, while the range of adjustable settings lets you tailor coverage to property edges, plant beds, or grazing zones.

Installation Tips and Best Practices

• Plan for at least 60 PSI to achieve the best performance with the 3/4 in. brass model; lower pressure may favor smaller, single-nozzle units.
• Use the 3/4 in. MPT inlet with standard FPT couplings or Schedule 40/80 PVC risers for both above-ground and underground setups.
• Exploit the 18–35 ft radius and 30–360 degree arc to align watering with property boundaries or specific zones.

Note: This sprinkler is intended for outdoor irrigation with cold water only. With proper installation and maintenance, it can provide durable, flexible coverage across varied landscapes.
