Use this retrofit elbow adapter that has a 1/2-in male pipe thread inlet and a 1/2-in poly barb outlet with locking collar to connect to an existing PVC system. You can use the enclosed 1/2-in Coupling to join two fittings if needed. You can convert a sprinkler to MIcro Sprays by using this adapter to run 1/2-in poly tubing through your landscaped areas.
Attach the 1/2-in male pipe thread to a 1/2-in female pipe threaded fitting that is attached to the underground sprinkler system
Then, attach the 1/2-in poly tubing to both sides of the "T" part of the fitting by first pushing back the locking collar to expose the barb with a built in O-ring
Then push and wiggle the 1/2-in poly onto the fitting and under the collar until snug
While holding the tubing with one hand, turn the ears of the collar in a left counterclockwise motion to tighten and lock onto the 1/2-in poly tubing
This fitting can be uninstalled easily by unthreading the collar in a clockwise motion, then by pulling off the 1/2-in poly
If you find it difficult to get the 1/2-in poly tubing onto the fitting, use a little olive oil or vegetable oil by wiping it on the inside of the wall of 1/2-in poly, then push in the fittings
