Rain Bird BE50/4PK Drip Irrigation Universal Barbed Elbow Fitting, Fits All Sizes of 5/8", 1/2", .700" Drip Tubing, 4-Pack

Good quality. Arrived on time. What I don't understand is they say they cannot deliver to a p.o. box so I deleted the p.o. box from my address (which also included my civic address) and it still was delivered to my p.o. box.

the product is bigger than the 1/2”in tubing a little bit, so i had to dip the tubing in hot water and it worked

A bit of a tight fit on the 1/2 inch tubing but I heated the tubing slightly with a heat gun to make it a bit more pliable and it works great. A hair dryer would probably work too as you are just warming the tubing up slightly. These fittings are far superior to the fittings that go on the outside of the tubing. Happy with purchase.

fit ok on the hose, no loose.

We bought a new house and the backyard sprinkler system was broken beyond repair. Even with professional help, I was unable to locate the sprinkler valves for the back yard. So instead I set out to research and install my own drip irrigation to automate the watering process, mostly because I am way too lazy to water my backyard every other day. I chose the rainbird family of products because of the positive reviews and the plethora of options. I chose drip emitters for the trees and shrubs in my yard. I chose 1/2 in tubing for the systems backbone. Then 1/4 in tubing to run out to the individual plants, flowers, trees, shrubs... There are two ways you can install them. You can install them straight into the 1/2 in tubing, like I did. The other way is to install a 1/4 in coupler into the 1/2 in tubing, then run a 1/4 tube to the plant. Then connect the drip emitter at that end. I chose this configuration because some people complain about the water pressure pushing the emitter off the end of the tubing. I bought these fittings to route the water up a slope, across the hill, and back down again. These elbows are solid. So seepage or leaking. + Good price. + Very easy to use. Use these to route your 1/2 in tubing. Also make sure to buy the Rainbird special tool to flare the end of the 1/2 in tubing before connecting it. I personally dislike special tools, but they are only a couple bucks each. I saved a ton of money by doing this project myself ($250 total cost), so to me it was worth it to get this specialized tool. + Very happy with the performance so far. - Nothing thus far. I am very happy with the performance of these elbows. Ill update this review as necessary.
