Rain Bird 5000 - Setting the Left Stop w/ Slip Clutch

Using the (relatively) new feature from Rain Bird called the slip clutch, you can easily adjust the left hand stop on a RainBird 5000 Series sprinkler.

As the video above shows, simply find the left hand stop and continue to turn passed it until you have the arrow pointing in the desired direction. From there, fine tune the right hand stop with the +/- adjustment screw.

Blu-Lock Challenge Regina, SK - Heat #1

Blu-Lock pipe and fittings was put to the built for speed challenge when we challenged irrigation installers to see which fittings would save more time: Blu-Lock, Turnseal, or Insert Fittings with Oetiker Clamps. The results of heat 1 had the Blu-Lock installers done in half the time of Turnseal and Insert Fittings.

Friction Loss - Blu-Lock vs. Insert Fittings

One of the great reasons to install a Blu-Lock sprinkler system vs. an insert fitting based sprinkler system is because the Blu-Lock fittings go over top of the pipe instead of inside the pipe like insert fittings and TurnSeal fittings do.

Blu-Lock vs. Insert Fittings vs. TurnSeal Fittings

Blu-Lock irrigation pipe and fittings are the wave of the future in the sprinkler business. To get a quote for your Blu-Lock sprinkler system head over to http://www.sprinklerdaddy.ca/.

We'll still gladly sell TurnSeal and insert fittings with standard poly pipe, but the Blu-Lock pipe and fitting system goes together so much faster and provides increased water flow over TurnSeal and insert fittings because the fittings fit over the pipe, not inside.
