Waterbreakers and Nozzles
The original 400AL was invented by John Dramm in 1945 to soften the flow from a hose and deliver much needed water and oxygen to greenhouse grown plants. Today, the 400AL is still a cornerstone of the Dramm Corporation's watering tool offerings. However, to meet the ever changing needs of the horticultural industry, our line of Waterbreakers and nozzles has expanded to offer a great deal of flexibility in the pattern, flow, droplet size and construction.
