Know before you buy
No, these are non-pressure compensating emitters. They are best suited for systems where water pressure is relatively consistent across the entire irrigation line.
Yes, the emitters feature a self-piercing barb that allows you to punch them directly into 1/2-inch or larger supply tubing. Alternatively, you can connect them to the end of 1/4-inch distribution tubing.
These emitters are designed with large water passages and a self-flushing action. This helps clear out small particles during operation to significantly reduce the risk of clogging.
Each emitter in this pack provides a steady flow rate of 1.0 gallon per hour (GPH). They are color-coded black for easy identification.
No special tools are required, as they are designed for simple hand insertion. However, if you are installing a large number of them, using a dedicated emitter insertion tool can make the process faster and easier on your hands.
