Transition from garden hose or hose bibb to a low-flow drip irrigation system with the 5/8 in. X 3/4 in. FHT Compression Swivel Elbow. Installation is quick and easy—just screw the elbow onto the 3/4 in. MHT connection point, then push the 5/8 in. tubing or dripline into the other end, where an internal barb compresses the tubing for a watertight fit. Fitting has a swivel feature to keep tubing from kinking or bending. Filter washer inside screens out particles. The compression swivel elbow is made of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) treated with UV inhibitors to prevent cracking. Drip irrigation systems are easy to customize, install, and operate. As part of a complete system, drip fittings are connectors that attach sections of tubing together or to other drip irrigation parts. Drip irrigation gradually and evenly waters the root zone of your plants, keeping it moist but never saturated with water. Your plants maintain the ideal balance between water and air for optimal growth and overall health.
