I guess it would but it would also be trying to push the pipe back out! I'm being pedantic though and don't have any experience of jetting with big stuff!

I built this about 10 years ago. Runs @200 bar @30litres per minute. Has 200 metres of 3/8" pipe.
As mentioned already sometimes it's better to dig another hole after 100 metres but in plastic it's fairly easy to put all the pipe down.

that is similar to the one i made, right angle gearbox 1 to 1 into an interpump off a landy moumted jetter, 70mtrs of 3/8" pipe.........it does very well up to about 30 to 40 meters then you have to start pushing..........1/2"or 3/4" seems a bit numb to me ........a bit more flow and pressure up 3/8"pipe for land drains i think would be the way to go

Thanks for that, I wonder, have you seen that I’m looking at hose sizes now in a previous post , and do you have any experience with bore of hose compared to length?
I’ve read that the smaller bore has more pressure drop compared to a larger bore due to friction. This makes sense to me as it’s the same with mains water pipe .
