Know before you buy
Yes, the Dramm 400PL is designed to attach easily to any standard garden hose with a 3/4-inch male thread.
While it is specifically engineered for the delicate needs of seedlings and tender flowers, it is also an excellent tool for general garden watering. The high-volume, gentle flow allows you to saturate soil quickly without washing away mulch or damaging established plants.
This nozzle provides a high flow rate of 11.1 GPM at 40 psi. Because it uses 400 micro-holes to break up the water, it delivers a large volume of water very quickly while remaining gentle enough to avoid soil erosion.
The nozzle is constructed from Cycolac, a high-impact, durable plastic designed to withstand the rigors of professional greenhouse and nursery environments. It is built to be lightweight for comfort, but it is rugged enough for consistent, daily use.
No, this is a dedicated water breaker nozzle with a fixed shower pattern. It is designed specifically to provide a consistent, soft, and full flow rather than adjustable spray settings.
