Water plants along the line at a steady flow rate using the 16mm Dura Flo Dripline (0.550" ID X 0.640" OD). This dripperline features 1.0 GPH pressure-compensating (PC) emitters evenly spaced 12" apart throughout the entire line. PC emitters maintain the same expulsion of water even if the water pressure should change. The self-cleaning emitters flushes out sediments that can lead to clogging. Tubing is made of polyethylene, and emitters are made of polyethylene and silicone, all treated with UV inhibitors.
Drip irrigation waters plants efficiently, reducing water usage by up to 70% compared to conventional sprinkler irrigation. Drip irrigation systems are easy to install, operate, and maintain, and can easily be automated. With proper installation of a drip system, water is delivered precisely to where plants need it most, and plants get the hydration they need for optimal growth and overall health.

- Poly tubing is constructed using a layering method for durability: the outer layer, which is exposed to the sun, and the inner layer, which is exposed to water, is made of 100% virgin content; the middle layer is composed of recycled content
- Pressure compensating 1.0 GPH emitters are spaced 12" apart
- Roll is shrinkwrapped for easy handling and to ensure roll stays together as product is dispensed
- Delivers a steady flow of water along the entire line even if the pressure changes; self-cleaning emitters are spaced evenly apart
- Ideal for watering closely spaced plants, hedges, vegetable gardens, planter boxes, and new plantings of ground cover; its flexibility also works as a watering ring for large pots and containers, and makes loops around large trees
- As part of a complete drip irrigation system, the dripline delivers water along the entire line, and each of the pressure-compensating emitters distributes water steadily even if the pressure changes
- Use tubing adapter to connect to water source; use Smart Loc multidiameter fittings or 600 Series compression fittings to connect sections of dripline together, make bends, or add a tee intersection
- Periodically check for leaks or damage and replace or repair as needed; recommended operating pressure is up to 50 PSI; for areas with freezing temperatures, winterize by using an air compressor to evacuate lines with air to remove water
- Tubing made of polyethylene
- Emitters made of polyethylene and silicone
