Compatibility & Installation Notes
Select the fixed pattern before ordering; the adjustment screw changes radius and flow, not the arc. Rain Bird advises against reducing radius more than 25%. Flush the spray body before installing the nozzle and screen. Check pressure at the nozzle; the performance chart assumes zero wind and testing on a 4-inch pop-up. Nozzle purchase does not include a complete spray body.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which variant should I choose?
Choose RB10F for 360-degree full-circle coverage, RB10H for a 180-degree half circle or RB10Q for a 90-degree quarter circle.
Will it throw 10 feet at every pressure?
No. The table lists a 10-foot radius at 30 psi and 7–9 feet at lower listed pressures.
Do all three use the same flow?
No. At 30 psi, rated flows are 1.58 gpm for full circle, 0.79 gpm for half circle and 0.39 gpm for quarter circle.
Why Buy from Big Frog Supply?
Choose the RB10 family when the layout needs a 10-foot radius at 30 psi and a defined full-, half- or quarter-circle pattern. Match the arc to the head's position, then use the separate 1.58, 0.79 or 0.39 gpm flow value to check zone demand. The blue top helps identify the 10 Series during maintenance.
