Sand Box Tests

The purpose of this test was to measure the retraction and extension reliability of heads on the golf course, simulating acceleration of typical on and off cycles in extreme conditions over long term use. Testing was stopped after 660 cycles without an EAGLE Rotor failure, while all other competitors' rotors failed much sooner as you can see from the data.

Standardized Rain Bird testing procedures were used consistently on all rotors: a “Standard” Sand mix was applied to cover the top of each rotor to a depth of 1” to test the flushing action of all rotors under extreme conditions.

How many of the competitor's rotors would you need to match the life of just one EAGLE rotor?

Testing was conducted in Fall 2007, to failure resulting in 90% confidence, with each competitive manufacturer’s latest released products and the New Rain Bird® EAGLE series rotors.
