Benefits of Wade Rain Handmove Irrigation

Wade Rain Couplers

Wade Rain handmove systems offer several advantages over other handmove systems. Our couplers are made of a special light-weight aluminum to allow easy portability and structural strength.

Our couplers our specially designed to allow one to easily move the pipes and reattach them to each other. Take a closer look at our specially designed couplers.

Wade Rain Exclusive Self-Draining Gaskets

Inside the couplers are rubber rings called gaskets. These seal the connection between the pipes so that water does not leak out.

The Wade Rain advantage is that our gaskets seal when there is water pressure is on and the water is flowing through, and then "de-seal" themselves and allow the water to flow out when the water pressure is turned off. This means no more having to lift heavy water-filled pipes. Learn more about the advantage of Wade Rain gaskets.

Wade Rain Valves

Valves allow you to open and close the flow of water off of the mainline to the pipes that you want to irrigate with. See some of our valves to learn more about them.
