Rain Bird 1408 pressure-compensating bubbler delivers a gentle, full-circle umbrella of water for precise irrigation of trees, shrubs, and planting beds. Its pressure-compensating design maintains a steady 2.0 GPM flow across a wide pressure range to reduce runoff and promote uniform soaking.

  • Flow rate: 2.0 GPM (0.46 m3/h). Full-circle umbrella pattern waters areas 1–3 ft in radius, ideal for trees, shrubs, and containers.
  • Operating pressure: 20–90 psi. Pressure-compensating mechanism ensures consistent output despite pressure fluctuations.
  • Inlet & dimensions: 1/2" female threaded inlet; mounts on 1/2" male risers. Height: 1"; top diameter: 1".
  • Construction & filter: Corrosion-proof plastic and rubber construction; shipped with SR-050 1/2" (15/21) bubbler filter screen for debris resistance.
  • Design features: Non-adjustable flow for vandal resistance; low flow reduces runoff and improves water absorption.
  • Compatibility & recommendations: Use with 1800/RD1800 PRS spray bodies for high-pressure systems; suitable for both professional and residential installations.

Backed by Rain Bird's trade warranty, the 1408 is a durable, low-maintenance micro-irrigation component that delivers reliable performance in demanding landscapes. Choose single units or bulk quantities to match project requirements.
