Water-Smart Coverage for Small-to-Medium Zones. Up to 30% Less Water Than Spray Nozzles.
The Hunter MP Rotator MP1000 is the industry’s most trusted high-efficiency rotary nozzle for small and medium-sized turf and landscape areas. Using a unique multi-trajectory rotating stream delivery system, the MP1000 applies water slowly and evenly at a precipitation rate of approximately 0.4 in/hr — the lowest in the industry — dramatically reducing runoff, ponding, and water waste compared to conventional spray nozzles. Hunter research demonstrates up to 30% water savings when switching from traditional spray heads to MP Rotators.
The MP1000 is designed for a throw radius of 8 to 15 feet and is available in two configurations sold here at DripWorks: the MPR10-90 (Maroon), with an adjustable arc from 90° to 210°, and the MPR10-360 (Olive), a fixed full-circle pattern ideal for open, unobstructed turf areas. Both models thread onto any standard spray body using a female thread inlet, making them a direct retrofit for most existing pop-up spray heads in the field. The nozzle arc is only adjustable while the MP Rotator is running — a built-in vandal-resistance feature that prevents unauthorized tampering.
Unique automatic matched precipitation technology ensures that all nozzles in a zone — regardless of arc setting — apply water at the same rate, so you never have to swap nozzles when changing arc angles. The double-pop feature keeps the nozzle retracted until the riser is fully extended, protecting internal components from dirt and debris. A removable inlet filter screen makes cleaning fast and simple. The radius is also adjustable by up to 25% — run at 30 PSI for minimum radius, 40 PSI for nominal radius settings.
DripWorks includes a complimentary MP Rotator Adjustment Tool (MPRTOOL) automatically with each qualifying order. Need coverage for a larger zone? Consider the MP2000 or MP3000 Rotator nozzles, which cover radii up to 21′ and 30′ respectively. For complete spray body compatibility, browse DripWorks’ full selection of spray bodies.
