🔹 Detailed Description

Keep your traveling sprinkler moving—without replacing the entire unit.

This replacement drive gear is designed for use in traveling / walking sprinklers commonly sold under Orbit, Nelson, and John Deere–style designs. When the original internal gear wears out or strips (a common failure point), the sprinkler stops moving entirely.

This gear is 3D printed in PETG, a material selected specifically for outdoor, water-exposed applications. PETG offers improved heat resistance, moisture stability, and toughness compared to standard PLA, making it well-suited for irrigation equipment that operates in sun, water, and dirt.

A practical, cost-effective solution for extending the life of your sprinkler.


🔹 Why PETG? 

  • Better heat resistance than PLA

  • Holds up in wet environments

  • Less brittle under load

  • Proven performance in outdoor applications

In short: made for sprinklers, not desk toys.


🔹 Compatibility 

  • Orbit traveling sprinklers (select models)

  • Nelson traveling sprinklers (select models)

  • John Deere–style traveling sprinklers

⚠️ Please compare your original gear to photos and dimensions before purchasing. Buyer is responsible for fitment confirmation.


🔹 Installation Notes 

  • Moderate mechanical skill recommended

  • Designed as a direct replacement for the original internal drive gear

  • Install gently to avoid stressing the part
