Hunter 44011280 Pro-spray 12 Inch Pop-up Sprinkler Body

Product Description

The HUNTER 44011280 is a 12-inch pop-up sprinkler body designed for residential irrigation systems. It extends to a full 12 inches above grade, making it well suited for turf and groundcover areas where taller grass or dense plantings require elevated nozzle placement. The body features a sealed cap design that prevents leakage even when the cap is loosened, and a two-piece ratchet mechanism for straightforward arc adjustment. A pull-ring flush cap is built in to keep debris out of the nozzle seat during and after installation. Licensed irrigation contractors and experienced DIYers install this head as part of fixed or rotor-zone layouts.

The 44011280 is intended for residential landscape irrigation applications. It is compatible with Pro Adjustable Nozzles, Pro Fixed Nozzles, and MP Rotators, as well as all industry-standard female threaded nozzles. The 12-inch pop-up height is appropriate for areas where turf height or ground-level obstructions would reduce throw pattern coverage from a shorter body. It fits into existing spray zones where the riser height needs to be increased without replacing the entire lateral line connection.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed irrigation contractors or qualified landscape professionals. Shut off the irrigation zone and relieve system pressure before disassembling any lateral line fittings. Thread the body onto a standard female-threaded swing joint or lateral tee connection and hand-tighten before applying tools to avoid cracking the body. Follow local plumbing or irrigation codes for burial depth and backflow prevention requirements.
