Description
This small-diameter PVC tube is designed for irrigation systems requiring direct insertion connections to emitters. Manufactured with UV-stabilized PVC compound, it supports outdoor agricultural installations. The tube is available in 5mm and 7mm outer diameter sizes, compatible with standard drippers, drip arrows, and micro sprinklers.

Product Operate Guide
Select the correct tube diameter matching your dripper or sprinkler inlet size
Inspect tubing for damage, kinks, or deformations before installation
Store unused rolls in cool, shaded areas away from direct sunlight
Cut tubing to required length using sharp scissors or a tube cutter, ensuring square, clean cuts
Push tube ends firmly onto barbed inlets, ensuring full coverage of all barbs
For tight connections, warm tube ends in water before insertion
Route tubing along desired paths, maintaining a minimum bend radius of approximately 5cm to prevent kinking
Secure tubing in position using stakes or clips as needed
Pressurize the system slowly and inspect all connections for leaks
Inspect tubing periodically for kinks, cracks, or mechanical damage
Flush systems regularly to remove sediment buildup
Drain tubing completely before freezing temperatures
Replace damaged sections promptly to prevent water loss
FAQ
The 5mm outer diameter (3mm inner diameter) tubing is used for smaller drippers and lower flow rate applications. The 7mm outer diameter (4mm inner diameter) tubing provides higher flow capacity and is suitable for larger emitters or longer runs where pressure loss must be minimized.
Yes, this tubing works with standard 1/4" barbed fittings (SC1/4, SE1/4, ST1/4 series) commonly used in drip irrigation systems.
This tubing is designed for low-pressure drip irrigation applications, typically operating at 0.1-0.3 MPa (1-3 bar). For higher pressure applications, contact our technical team for recommendations.
This tubing is designed primarily for above-ground applications. For underground installations, we recommend thicker-wall PE tubing manufactured specifically for burial.
Store rolls in their original packaging in cool, dry locations away from direct sunlight, sharp objects, and heat sources. Avoid excessive stacking to prevent deformation.
For commercial procurement inquiries or custom specification requests, contact our sales team to discuss your project requirements. We provide technical support for irrigation system design and component selection.
