Rain Bird PTC1 Spray Head Pull-Up Tool for Pop-Up Sprinklers

Rain Bird, a privately held company founded in 1933 during the agricultural boom in California, is recognized as the #1 manufacturer and provider of irrigation products and services in the world. With sales offices around the globe, the company offers over 4,000 water-saving irrigation products in more than 130 countries. Since the very beginning, Rain Bird has produced and offered the industry's broadest range of high-quality irrigation products for farms, golf courses, sports arenas, commercial developments, and homes.

Over the past 80 years, Rain Bird has received more than 450 patents worldwide, including the first one for irrigation in 1935 on their original impact-drive sprinkler (U.S. Patent #1,997,901), which revolutionized agricultural food-production and ushered in a new era in irrigation worldwide. In 1990, this original impact sprinkler was designated a historic landmark by the American Society of Agricultural Engineers.

Rain Bird's product range covers all aspects of irrigation, including timers/controllers, pop-up rotary sprinklers, pop-up spray head sprinklers, sprinkler nozzles, irrigation valves, drip irrigation, and drainage, among much more. These products have been chosen and installed worldwide in the largest and most prestigious projects for residential, commercial, agricultural, and golf course irrigation.

Rain Bird is committed to "The Intelligent Use of Water™," extending beyond products to education, training, and services for the industry and the community. Their legacy is to design and manufacture only products of the highest value and quality, for which they have received numerous recognition awards from many of their valued partners.

The Rain Bird PTC1 Spray Head Pull-Up Tool is a handy tool that simplifies and speeds-up the maintenance of pop-up lawn sprinklers. It is easy to use, as it pulls the pop-up sprinkler stem upwards and prevents it from retracting while you work on maintenance or replacement of spray nozzles. This tool eliminates the frustrating and time-consuming exercise of having to completely disassemble the spray head to reattach the nozzle when the stem accidentally slips and retracts back into the sprinkler body.

The tool is adjustable for the width of the opening by simply tightening or loosening the screw on the handle. It works with all brands of pop-up irrigation sprinklers and is made of corrosion-resistant metal with a comfortable vinyl handle covering.

It is important to note that the PTC1 Spray Head Pull-Up Tool is not intended for use with geared rotors. It is designed for use with small stem pop-up sprinklers and will not open wide enough or have a spring strong enough to hold up large stem geared rotors.

Rain Bird's commitment to "The Intelligent Use of Water™" and their legacy of innovation and quality are exemplified in the PTC1 Spray Head Pull-Up Tool, making it a valuable addition to any irrigation maintenance toolkit.
