Rain Bird SSF70-50S Drip Irrigation Pressure Compensating 1/2" (.700 OD) Sub-Surface Emitter Tubing with Copper Shield Technology, 18" Emitter Spacing, 50 Roll, Copper

Description

Rain Bird SSF70-50S Drip Irrigation Pressure Compensating 1/2" (.700 outside diameter) Sub-Surface Emitter Tubing with Copper Shield Technology, 18" Emitter Spacing, 50 Roll, Copper colored. Rain Bird s patented Copper Shield Technology prevents plant roots from growing into the Drip emitters in this unique copper-colored 1/2" Drip tubing. "The Copper-Color Outside Ensures that the Copper Shield is Inside!" Patent-pending Copper Shield Technology is the latest innovation in the Rain Bird Drip Irrigation family protecting emitters from root intrusion for a long-lasting maintenance free system. Sub-surface Drip tubing provides 90% watering efficiency by irrigating plants directly at their roots with low-pressure emitters. Rain Bird s patented emitter design uses a pressure-compensating diaphragm technology to water all plants equally throughout the length of tubing. The design avoids clogging by continuously flushing debris through an extra-wide turbulent flow path. The low-profile emitter reduces in-line pressure loss; allowing longer lateral runs to simplify system design and reduce installation time. The 50 roll of 1/2" tubing features an emitter every 18" with an output of 0.9 gallons-per-hour at an operating pressure of 8.5 to 60 psi. Rain Bird s copper colored dual-layered tubing (copper over black) provides unmatched durability and resistance to UV damage, chemicals and algae growth. A proprietary material blend provides industry leading flexibility allowing tighter turns with fewer elbows for fast and easy installation. Perfect for small, narrow and tight planting areas, as well as areas with tight curves or many switchbacks. Compact coiling method allows tubing to remain coiled as its extracted; making it easy to use, store and eliminates waste. Unique Micro-Porous design creates an ultra-tight connection; tubing expands over fittings then shrinks making it almost impossible to remove without cutting. The resulting seal is completely leak-proof and fittings won’t pull out; just cut tubing to remove fittings and expand. Tubing accepts Rain Bird Easy Fit Compression, Barbed Insert and all other 17mm barbed insert fittings. Specifications: outside diameter 0.700", inside diameter 0.580", wall thickness 0.60". Operating pressure: 8.5 to 60 PSI. Flow rate: 0.9 GPH. Rain Bird "The Intelligent Use of Water"
