Drip tape with flat emitter

Drip tape with flat emitter


-Drip tube tends to 👉 not exceed 60 meters in length from the point where water enters the tube🧐 . Tubes can be extended so long as the point of entry of the water supply never exceeds 60 meters from entry to pipe termination point. e.g. a 120-meter tube where the water entry point is at the center point.
-This is a special type of tube common in most drip systems. They tend to be laid on the ground surface between plants. Emitters are generally installed to these tubes. Drip tubes tend to be made of thin-walled polyethylene and consequently have a much lower pressure rating than other parts of the system. It is generally recommended that these stay above ground as they can commonly be nibbled on by pesky local rodents! In large commercial setups, these tubes are usually "hard-piped" in these systems and the emitters are installed directly onto the laterals.
