Straightening vanes areextruded directly into the body toreduce fluid turbulence and addstrength and distance to the waterstream.Lower MaintenanceRain Guns are designed to keep workingfor years with minimal maintenance.Many of our competitors pack theirbearings less than 30% full. This unfilledspace allows for condensation and waterbuild-up which can lead to an eventualbreakdown of the grease, corrosion, andbearing failure. This is why all Rain Gunbearings are permanently sealed andpacked 70% full with a robust, widetemperature range, water resistantsilicone grease.SR3003 Slow Reverse Rain GunThe braking system is also maintenancefree. The spring loaded break self-adjuststo keep consistent rotation times throughthe life of the gun. All trip mechanismsare reinforced with stainless steel washersand cotter pins.
