Orbit PVC riser pipes connect an underground sprinkler line to hose bibs, drip manifolds, shrub heads, spray heads, impact sprinklers, or gear-drive rotors, raising the head to the height the planting needs. Thicker wall construction than Schedule 40 pipe delivers greater rigidity and a higher pressure rating, and the tapered inside ends let a standard pop-up head slide up and down without restriction.

• Size: 1/2" MPT x 18"
• Male pipe thread (MPT) on both ends, 1/2" nominal
• Schedule 80 PVC construction - thicker wall than Schedule 40 pipe
• Tapered inside ends so standard pop-up heads travel without restriction
• UV-resistant PVC, suitable for mainline and lateral line use
• Molded black PVC
• For outdoor use with cold water only
• Compatible with irrigation components from Orbit, Hydro-Rain, and other major brands

Rise: 18" of rise above the lateral fitting. Orbit recommends a support stake to stabilize taller risers.

Installation Tip: As plants grow, extend the riser with a Schedule 40 PVC coupling and another riser section rather than replacing it. Orbit supplies this riser from a close nipple (threads only) up to 48".
