This retrofit elbow adapter has a 1/2-in male pipe thread inlet and a 1/2-in poly barbed outlet with locking collar to connect to an existing PVC system. Easily convert a sprinkler to Micro Sprays by using this adapter to run 1/2-in Poly tubing through your landscaped areas.
Use the 1/2-in male pipe thread side to attach to a 1/2-in female pipe threaded fitting that is attached to the underground sprinkler system
Attach the poly tubing 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
This Adapter DOES NOT include a Coupler
