Rain Bird Uni-Spray Sprinkler Bypass Cap / Plug 🛠️💦
Tired of digging up your lawn just to decommission or block a single sprinkler head?
This custom-designed Bypass Cap is the ultimate time-saving solution for your Rain Bird Uni-Spray sprinkler system. Whether you are adjusting your lawn layout, fixing a zone, or simply want to shut off a specific sprinkler permanently or temporarily, this plug makes it effortless.
Why You'll Love It:
- No Digging Required: Save your lawn and your back! There's absolutely no need to dig up the entire sprinkler body from the ground.
- 10-Second Installation: Simply unscrew the top collar, pull out the internal pop-up riser assembly, and screw this cap directly onto the existing body thread.
- Clean & Low-Profile: Once installed, the cap sits flush with the top body, keeping your lawn looking clean and mower-safe.
TIP
For a 100% Leak-Free Seal: We highly recommend placing a standard 35mm diameter rubber gasket (or O-ring) inside the cap before screwing it down. This ensures a perfect water-tight seal and eliminates even the minor leaks under high system pressure.
How to Use:
- Turn off the water system.
- Unscrew the outer collar of your Rain Bird Uni-Spray sprinkler.
- Remove the internal pop-up riser/spring assembly.
- Insert a 35mm rubber gasket inside the 3D-printed cap.
- Screw this custom cap tightly onto the sprinkler body.
- Done! Simple, fast, and clean.
