To make your underground sprinkler system also function as a low-flow drip irrigation system, this is the adapter you need. The 1/2 in. FPT X 1/4 in. Sprinkler Riser to Drip Tubing Conversion Adapter threads onto the sprinkler riser and outlets through the sprinkler head on top as well as through the 1/4 in. supply tubing or dripline inserted into the side compression ring. A filter washer inside the adapter ensures a watertight fit and screens out particles before they can clog the system. This adapter 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.

Turns existing underground sprinklers into both a sprinkler system and low-flow drip system
Compression fitting creates a watertight seal, internal barb that compresses the inserted tubing to hold it in place, unlike a barbed fitting, the tubing is not stretched out to connect to the fitting
Filter washer inside the adapter ensures a watertight fit and screens out particles before they can clog the system
Handles water pressures up to 50 psi
Compression ring is black, fits 1/4 inch tubing or dripline with outside diameter of 0.250 inch, works with Raindrip products and other products with compatible connection type
Convert an underground sprinkler system to function as both a low-flow drip system and sprinkler system
Works with existing underground sprinkler systems
As part of a complete drip irrigation system, the conversion adapter connects to a sprinkler riser and outlets to 1/4 inch distribution tubing or dripline to transport water to the area to be irrigated, also outlets from the sprinkler head
Thread the 1/2 inch FPT inlet onto a sprinkler riser with a 1/2 inch MPT connection point, and attach sprinkler head on top, connect 1/4 inch distribution tubing or dripline into the compression fitting on the side
