Drip Irrigation Fittings, Connectors and Tubing for Drip Irrigation System

This purchase includes a 12-pack of 1/2" couplers along with a bonus Built to Last! LED Keychain Light. The couplers are designed to be used with 1/2" drip irrigation tubing and do not require tools, heat, or glue for installation. The barbed ends of these drip line connectors grab the tubing to provide a secure, leak-proof connection, and the new design reduces the force needed for insertion.

These drip irrigation connectors have a pressure rating of 0-50 PSI, but a clamp is recommended for pressures exceeding 50 PSI. The Rainbird model number for these fittings is XFF-COUP, which features a 17mm barb-to-barb coupling.

The manufacturer, Rain Bird, notes that their 17mm Insert Fittings have a raised and sharp barbed end, providing a strong connection. These fittings are rated for operating pressures up to 50 psi (3.45 bar) without the need for clamps. However, if the operating pressure exceeds 50 psi (3.45 bar), the use of a clamp is recommended.

To install the fittings, they are simply pressed into the tubing. It is important not to heat the polyethylene tube before insertion, as this can weaken the connection and potentially damage the tubing.

In summary, this purchase provides a convenient multi-pack of high-quality drip hose connectors, along with a useful LED keychain light, all designed to simplify and secure your drip irrigation system. Give these 1/2" couplers a try today for a reliable, leak-proof solution.
