Abstract
A rotatable sprinkler comprising a plastic body having a passage extending through the body and a shoulder within the passage. The body is connectable to a source of water under pressure. A plastic sprinkler head is rotatably received within the passage and is unsupported externally of the housing. The sprinkler head has a retainer integral with the sprinkler head which forms a snap fit with the shoulder to retain the sprinkler head within the passage of the body. A restricted orifice in the passage of the body directs water at relatively high velocity into and through a passage in the sprinkler head. The passage in the sprinkler head is configured so that the sprinkler head is rotated by the flow of water through the sprinkler head.
