Material: Most joiners are made from high-quality, virgin polypropylene (PP) or PP Co-polymer plastic, which is UV-stabilized and resistant to chemicals and physical impacts.
Sizes/Diameter: Available to fit standard rain pipe and drip lateral pipe diameters, including:
32mm
40mm
Fitting Type: Generally designed as straight joiners or barbed connectors that provide a tight, push-fit connection, often without requiring special tools or adhesives. Some systems use a "ring fit" or "sol fit" joint type.
Operating Pressure: They are designed to maintain a secure connection under typical irrigation operating pressures, which can range from 1 to 4 kg/cm² (approx. 14 to 57 PSI) depending on the specific pipe and system components.
Durability: The materials used ensure a long life span (often cited as 3-4 years for the connected pipe) and resistance to weather conditions, such as sunlight and rain.
Usage: Primarily for agricultural, commercial, and home garden drip and spray irrigation systems to join damaged or cut lateral lines, extend mainline length, or create a continuous flow path.
