New 5″ Diameter Center Pivot Span Product

T-L Irrigation Co., a world-class manufacturer of irrigation systems for over 50 years, is pleased to announce the availability of 5″ Diameter Center Pivot Spans. Energy costs, water use regulations and less natural water availability are causing growers to utilize lower volume irrigation systems. T-L has developed a 5″ center pivot span pipe that delivers the following major advantages for this environment:

Lower purchase cost compared to standard size spans of 6-5/8″ or larger.

Less weight allows the use of smaller tires, thus placing less strain on the drive train and reducing the wheel track depth.

T-L’s 5″ span has significantly less friction loss (40% to 60%) than the 4″ or 4-1/2″ spans used in “mini-system” center pivots.

T-L’s 5″ spans use the standard tower connections, drive components, tower bases and controls of T-L’s larger systems, assuring proven structural integrity and system performance.

T-L’s unmatched 8 year/24,000 hour gearbox warranty applies! The 5″ spans are available in lengths longer than mini-pivots. Fewer drive units used results in a lower purchase price and lower maintenance costs.

The 5″ span can be designed in to a system with larger diameter spans to attain optimum water delivery and reduced friction loss.

Combine 5″ spans with T-L’s individualized sprinkler irrigation package design, hydrostatic drive, low maintenance, and safety and you will have the optimum in center pivot irrigation.
