Water Blade 130mm Spout

Water Blade 130mm Spout

Temporary made to order lead time: Due to exceptionally high demand at the Water Blades factory, these stainless steel water blades are currently being made to order. Please allow up to 3 weeks for manufacture and dispatch. This is temporary, and we will always aim to send sooner wherever possible.

The Stainless Steel Water Blade with 130mm Spout Overhang is a high-quality water feature designed to create a bold and dramatic sheet of water for ponds, pools, and garden landscapes. With its extended projection, this water blade delivers a striking waterfall effect that enhances both the look and sound of your outdoor space.

Available in widths from 200mm to 1500mm, the 130mm spout model is ideal for those looking to add a stronger water presence to their design. The longer overhang ensures the water extends further away from the wall or mounting surface, producing a clear arc of water with minimal splashback. This makes it suitable for both decorative pond waterfalls and modern water walls.

Each water blade is handcrafted from premium stainless steel, with a 3mm thick back flange and 2mm stainless steel body for strength and durability. The brushed stainless finish not only looks sleek and contemporary but also provides excellent corrosion resistance, ensuring the blade performs reliably year after year.

For easy installation, the 1.25″ BSP threaded socket inlet allows you to choose between back or bottom entry, depending on your setup. Smaller models (200mm width) also have the option of a side inlet, while larger blades (800mm and above) come with two socket inlets, and the 1500mm model includes three inlets to ensure even water distribution across the full width.

Every blade is handmade in Sheffield, with strict quality control to guarantee performance. If you need a specific size or design, we also offer custom manufacturing to provide a truly tailored solution for your pond or garden feature.

Pump and flow rate guidance

Water blade pump sizing is one of the most common areas where people get caught out. The important figure is not simply the maximum flow printed on the pump box, but the actual flow reaching the water blade after vertical lift, hose size, bends and fittings have all taken effect. As a guide, allow around 1,250 litres per hour for every 100mm of blade width for a strong, even sheet of water. Wider blades and longer spout projections need more water to keep the sheet full and consistent.

Blade width	Suggested starting flow at the blade
200mm	Approx. 2,500 LPH
300mm	Approx. 3,750 LPH
400mm	Approx. 5,000 LPH
500mm	Approx. 6,250 LPH
600mm	Approx. 7,500 LPH
700mm	Approx. 8,750 LPH
800mm	Approx. 10,000 LPH
900mm	Approx. 11,250 LPH
1000mm	Approx. 12,500 LPH
1200mm	Approx. 15,000 LPH
1500mm	Approx. 18,750 LPH

Because head height can reduce the delivered flow significantly, we strongly recommend choosing a controllable pump where possible. A variable flow pond pump lets you oversize slightly to overcome losses, then turn the flow down until the blade looks right. Good options include the Evolution Aqua Varipump 10000, PondXpert VariFlow SINE 10000 and AquaForte DM Vario S 10000, depending on the width of the blade and the height of the installation.

Hose, clips and installation extras

Most pump-fed water blades work best with a short, neat run of correctly sized flexible pond hose. For simple installations, standard flexible pond hose is usually suitable. For higher flow rates, longer runs or where you want to reduce friction losses, the heavy duty flexible pond hose is the better option because the smoother bore helps maintain more of the pump’s output.

Always secure hose tails with suitable stainless steel clips. These products are supplied with hosetail fittings depending on the model, but the hose and clips should be chosen to match your pump and pipework layout. We recommend using stainless steel hose clips on flexible hose connections, especially where the blade is built into a wall and access may be awkward later. A pair of 20-50mm stainless steel hose clips has also been added as an optional extra on the pump-fed water blade pages for convenience.
