Spans and Diameters

Advantages Spans 1205

Customizing a Reinke system is simple. No matter what the irrigation need, Reinke can accommodate it with a wide selection of span materials, diameters and lengths. Span features include: high strength steel universal truss rods-the most truss supports per span in the industry (one every 19’) and the highest strength-to-weight ratio in the industry.


Span Materials

Customization is key to productivity and cost efficiency. With this in mind, Reinke offers four types of water pipes including aluminum, stainless steel, galvanized steel or chromium nickel.

Span lengths

Reinke offers varying span lengths to fit the specifications of even the most demanding terrain. For example, shorter spans are better suited for rolling terrain and heavy soil types, as opposed to longer spans, which are better for level terrain.

Span diameters

For convenience and value, Reinke offers span diameters ranging from 4 (Hydrus only) to 10 inches. This broad selection helps growers custom fit span diameters to system flow, lessening friction loss and reducing operating costs. Customizing span diameters to fit individual needs also helps keep initial investment costs lower.
