Rain Bird Subsurface Drip Irrigation Pipe Ø16mm - cut to 5m lengths

Product detailed description

Excellent PE pipe for drip irrigation with an outer diameter of 16 mm, designed for greenhouses, orchards, and flower beds. Suitable for micro-irrigation, where gentle water misting instead of a strong flow is acceptable. An air valve must be installed on each branch of the pipe to prevent backpressure from drawing soil into the drippers. The air valve should be placed at the highest point, ideally via a saddle clamp directly after the solenoid valve.

Recommendation: The Subsurface drip irrigation pipe should be installed at a depth of approximately 8 cm, and individual hoses should be spaced 33 cm apart, matching the emitter spacing.

Technical properties of the product

RB Dripline is a two-layer pressure-compensating pipe, characterized by high resistance to mechanical impacts and chemicals. UV stabilization protects the hose from premature aging, while the two-layer construction ensures higher flexibility and prevents kinking.

For water distribution in automatic irrigation systems and water supply to sprinklers, underground hoses are used.
