Compatible with both 4mm Micro Pipe/Drip Line for use as an end cap or alongside LDPE Irrigation Pipe to plug unwanted holes when changing your system layout.
Use this connector with 4mm Micro Pipe or 4mm Drip Line
For Top Tips on how to set up a garden watering system, read our Buyers Guide.
Use to plug holes made in error in the wall of LDPE pipe or when changing the layout of micro emitters. For long-lasting reliability, the protruding barb allows easy repair of irrigation pipe and provides a secure watertight connection within the pipe wall. The built-in blanking top provides a large surface area sealing the pipe and preventing water from emitting from existing holes.
Use alongside 4mm Micro Pipe or Micro Drip Line to plug any open ends of pipe to maintain pressure within a system and prevent water wastage.
Ideal for use in micro-irrigation/emitter systems that function at optimal pressures between 0.5 bar to 3 bar, such as, micro drip, micro-sprinkler and micro-spray systems. Use a pressure reducer at the start of your irrigation system to regulate pressure to the correct level.
Made from high-quality UV stabilised materials for long life and protection against deterioration when exposed to sunlight. The robust raw materials this connector is made from means it can easily withstand bar pressures required for low/high volume irrigation systems.
Irrigation Fittings Frequently Asked Questions
Micro pipe is compatible with connectors the same size as the pipe’s internal diameter. Use alongside Micro Pipe and Micro Drip Line when off taking Micro Emitters from the main supply tubing, installing multiple emitters in a row and as part of a tree circle installation.
When using a garden hose as the main supply, connect a 4mm Tap Connector to an Accessory Adaptor. The hose can be attached to the quick-click male outlet of the accessory adaptor using a Hose End Connector whilst the 4mm barbed outlet joins to the micro pipe. Micro pipe and 4mm drip line can also be connected directly to the tap or from a Timer outlet using a 4mm tap connector.
Begin by piercing a 4mm hole into the side wall of the LDPE Irrigation Pipe using a Hole Punch. One outlet of a 4mm Barbed Joiner can be pushed into the hole created and the other protruding from outside the pipe offers the ideal connection for a length of 4mm Drip Line or 4mm Micro Pipe.
Please Note: Branching off 4mm drip line from 13mm or 17mm drip line should be avoided as piercing holes in the sidewall can impact the pre-determined output of emitters. Instead, branch off micro drip line using LDPE as the header pipe.
Install aGoof Plug or 4mm Valve inside the internal bore for a water-tight connection that maintains water pressure within your irrigation system. A 4mm valve is an ideal end plug solution for micro pipe as it allows the system to be flushed throughout the watering season, alternatively, it can be used to control or isolate water flow.
