BRADAS AQUA-DROP WAD1 Soaker Hose 1/2" - 50m
Code: OZ_SH-001125CProduct detailed description
What water savings does the Rosnička 50 m soaker hose bring?
A soaker hose with a length of 50 metres and a diameter of 1/2" (16 mm) allows precise irrigation of the root zone through fine micropores. Compared to conventional surface watering, it can reduce water consumption by up to 70%. At the optimal pressure of 0.7 bar, it provides a stable output of 0.76 to 1.26 litres per hour per running metre.
What material is the soaker hose made of?
The irrigation hose is made of 100% recycled rubber combined with resin. This certified material blend ensures exceptional resistance to frost, extreme temperatures, and UV radiation. Despite its high strength, the hose remains flexible, making it easy to route precisely between plants in both ornamental and vegetable garden beds.
How to correctly install a 50-metre soaker hose?
Unlike shorter variants, the 50 m coil does not come with pre-fitted quick-connect adapters. It is connected modularly using standard 16 mm push-fit or screw fittings. To maintain even water seepage, we do not recommend exceeding a length of 30 metres for a single continuous run. The entire system must be thoroughly bled of air before first use.
What are the technical parameters and ground placement options?
The hose can be laid freely on the surface, covered with mulch bark, or buried underground to a maximum depth of 20 cm to minimise evaporation. The system must not be used to distribute drinking water or hot water. When connecting to a public water supply or a pump, a pressure regulator must be used.

Frequently asked questions about the Rosnička 50 m soaker hose (FAQ)
How deep can I bury the soaker hose in the ground?
You can safely bury the hose to a maximum depth of 20 cm. This placement limits evaporation and delivers water directly to the roots. Alternatively, it can be laid on the surface and covered with a layer of mulch bark.
What water pressure is required for proper operation?
The ideal working pressure is 0.7 bar, with an upper limit of 1 bar. When supplying water from a standard water main or a pump, a pressure regulator must be used, otherwise the hose wall may be damaged and the micropores impaired.
Why doesn't the 50 m version have a pre-fitted quick-connect adapter?
Compared to shorter versions, the 50-metre coil is supplied without fixed end fittings. This allows precise shortening and connecting using standard 16 mm fittings according to the dimensions of your garden bed.
Can the entire 50 metres be connected as a single continuous line?
To ensure even seepage, a single run must not exceed 30 metres in length. We recommend dividing the 50 m coil using T-pieces into two or more parallel irrigation circuits.
