Rain Bird R-VAN-SST rotary Side Strip nozzle for long, narrow areas, watering from the centre of a long side.

Rotating streams deliver even coverage, with large droplets that help resist wind drift. Water is applied more slowly than with traditional spray nozzles, giving the soil more time to absorb it. UV-resistant construction and a stainless steel protective cap provide durability.

Coverage is 1.5 metres wide × 9.1 metres long at 310 kPa pressure. These dimensions show the total width and length of the watered rectangle.

Adjustments can be made by hand while the sprinkler is running, and the pull-up flushing feature helps clear debris. The sprinkler sits at the centre of a long side, with the pattern extending along the strip in both directions.

Female nozzle thread suits Rain Bird 1800 sprinkler bodies. Sprinkler body sold separately. The nozzle can also be used with matching shrubhead adaptors where pop-up is not required, typically installed on top of a riser.

Warranty: Three-year trade warranty.

✓ Product Type and Application
Rain Bird R-VAN-SST Side Strip nozzle for irrigation of narrow lawn and planted strips.
A rotary nozzle fits onto a compatible sprinkler body and sends out streams of water that rotate across the watering area.

✓ Watering Performance and Benefits
Rotating streams provide even coverage, with large droplets that help resist wind drift. Slower water application than traditional spray nozzles gives soil more time to absorb water. UV-resistant construction and a stainless steel protective cap provide durability.

✓ Coverage and Spray Pattern
Coverage: 1.5 metres wide × 9.1 metres long at 310 kPa pressure, before distance reduction.
Dimensions show total width × length, not radius.
Sprinkler position: Centre of one long side of the rectangle.
Water reaches left and right along the strip, and out in front of the sprinkler across the strip’s width.
Spray pattern: Fixed rectangular rotary side strip.

✓ Pressure & Flow
Recommended operating pressure: 310 kPa.
Operating pressure range: 210–380 kPa.
Coverage and flow at different pressures, before distance reduction:
210 kPa: 1.2 × 8.5 metres; 1.36 L/min.
240 kPa: 1.5 × 9.1 metres; 1.67 L/min.
280 kPa: 1.5 × 9.1 metres; 1.74 L/min.
310 kPa: 1.5 × 9.1 metres; 1.82 L/min.
340 kPa: 1.5 × 9.1 metres; 1.89 L/min.
380 kPa: 1.8 × 9.8 metres; 2.12 L/min.

✓ Distance Reduction
Adjust coverage size by hand while the sprinkler is running. The rectangular pattern stays fixed.

✓ Precipitation Rate
Precipitation rate describes how quickly water is applied across the area, measured in millimetres per hour.
At 310 kPa pressure: 16mm/hour with straight-line or triangular strip spacing.
Strip spacing is based on 50% overlap of throw.

✓ Flushing and Filtration
Pull up on the nozzle top to flush debris while water is running. Flush immediately after installation. The mesh filter can be removed for cleaning.

✓ Connection and Compatibility
Female nozzle thread suits Rain Bird 1800 sprinkler bodies. Sprinkler body sold separately. The nozzle can also be used with matching shrubhead adaptors where pop-up is not required, typically installed on top of a riser.

✓ Identification
Model: R-VAN-SST.
SST identifies side-strip coverage.
Colour: Black.

✓ Warranty
Three-year trade warranty.
