The Orbit Brass Impact Sprinkler on Tri-point Step Spike is ideal for watering large areas. Designed for dependability, impact heads have an uninterrupted water flow and are clog-resistant, even when used with dirty or reclaimed water from ponds and canals. Attached to a heavy-duty step spike, this sprinkler sprays up to a 90-ft. diameter. Easily adjust the coverage from a partial section to a full circle. Features a deflector shield for distance adjustment and an anti-backsplash arm to aid in spray pattern and area coverage. A simple twist of the diffuser screw breaks up the water stream, creating larger or smaller water droplets. The flow-through outlet allows you to connect multiple sprinklers to expand your watering areas depending on water pressure. The all-metal construction is designed to hold up against the typical wear and tear that most impact sprinklers experience, giving you years of dependable use.

Frequently asked questions

Some questions and answers are automatically generated.

How large an area does it water?

The sprinkler sprays up to a 90-foot diameter according to the product description. Most reviewers report good coverage, though you can adjust it from a partial section to a full circle using the deflector shield.

Does it handle dirty or reclaimed water?

Yes, it is designed to be clog-resistant even when used with dirty or reclaimed water from ponds and canals. The impact head design maintains uninterrupted water flow under these conditions.

How durable is it over time?

Most customers report strong durability and describe it as heavy-duty and well-made. One long-term owner notes having 2 out of 5 units develop bearing issues after 1–1.5 years of use, but states the other units worked flawlessly and that Orbit replaced both defective units without issue.

Can I connect multiple sprinklers together?

Yes, the flow-through outlet allows you to connect multiple sprinklers to expand your watering areas, though this depends on your water pressure.

Is setup and adjustment straightforward?

Most users report it works well without difficulty. One reviewer with a 2-star rating found the directions difficult to understand and had limited results, suggesting setup experiences vary.

How easy is it to get replacement parts?

Replacement parts can be difficult to source. One reviewer noted that while the product is serviceable, obtaining individual parts like O-rings and bearings is challenging, making full replacement sometimes more practical out of warranty.

Saved my yard and 100s of dollars in sprinkler repair.

Ive bought 5 of these. Ive had issue with 2 over the past 1-1.5 years but I wonder if its the batch those came from. I suspect with the right parts and tool you can largely fix the "bearing" issue that seems to be the problem. 2 others (1 is on had as a spare/filler) have worked flawlessly. Those with issue will start sticking in rotation but to date everything else rock solid. Orbit has replaced both of these sticking units with impeccable support. Suggestion, offering the O-ring/bearings etc for replacement on these as a kit and a tool to easily take the entire thing apart as they very well are serviceable due to build-up/wear.

Great quality

Wonderful product

Best design ever!

Kudos to the designers/mgt!

Heavy duty.... very well made. Customer service at Orby was outstanding.

My Orbit sprinkler no longer rotated, so I wanted to try to buy a replacement part. I searched the website and called customer service, as I wanted to make sure I was getting the correct part. I actually got to speak with a real live person who was tremendously helpful.
Since my sprinkler was not very old, to my delight, I was shipped a brand new sprinkler at no cost.
It arrived within a week and I’ve put it to use nearly every day.. l love it! The coverage is good and it’s functioning beautifully. I highly recommend Orbit Products and their Friendly, helpful customer service.

It works well, but replacement parts are hard to get, thus it has to be replaced every so often.
Under warranty, no problem; out of warranty----problem.
